Every year, Kevin Durant and Nike Basketball team up to pay tribute to the fight against Breast Cancer inspired by KD’s late Aunt Pearl. She was an influential figure in Kevin Durant’s life growing up and her fight against the illness inspired Durant to create more awareness through raising funds for the Kay Yow Cancer Fund. This year, the KD 9 will feature familiar shades of Kay Yow’s Hot Punch pink shade as an accent color with special embroidery on the Swoosh and heel to commemorate the release. Today we get word that the Nike KD 9 Aunt Pearl will be available next weekend on January 28th, 2017 for $150 USD.

The Nike KD 9 has been featured in a number of Warriors-centric colorways to pay tribute to KD’s recent move to the Golden State Warriors, but the most popular looks have often been defined by their off-court wearability. With the Nike KD 9 “Aunt Pearl”, you get just that thanks to a simple black upper adding synthetic suede into the mix while a high-contrast Hot Punch sees additional embroidery on the Swoosh branding to match floral inspirations on the ‘KD’ branded heel.

Check out more detailed shots of the coming KD 9 Aunt Pearl below and grab your pair on 1/28. Stay tuned for more Release Date updates right here on Sneaker News.

The Golden State Warriors are rolling. Not only did Kevin Durant stop LeBron and company in their tracks in the defending champs’ return to Oracle Arena, but he also dissected his former team with 40 points on just 16 shots earlier this week. In honor of KD’s new home, Nike Basketball is releasing yet another “Home” themed version of the Nike KD 9 in the near future featuring a simple combination of White and Varsity Royal accents.

The KD 9 Home benefits from a slip-on Flyknit upper featuring full-length Zoom Air on the footbed for a seriously comfortable ride. Here we see the KD 9 Home split between a marbled white and blue toe and forefoot while the heel contrasts in a solid royal color blocking to allow for the all-white Swoosh branding to stand out.

This pair is already confirmed for a February 16th release date in Europe, so stay tuned for a stateside release date in the coming days and check out more detailed photos of KD’s latest Warriors-themed offering below.

Author’s Take:

Renz Ofiaza, News: Aside from the positive message it sends and represents, this colorway is pretty appealing overall. It’s still versatile enough for everyday wear and it’s definitely one of the best iterations of the silhouette for this year.

With the on-court colorway last year being the first “home” iteration, this Nike KD 9 Home 2 is essentially another home-inspired finish which Kevin Durant will prominently wear at the Oracle Arena.

While the aforementioned pair inherited a predominantly blue finish, this variation however, incorporates a two-tone makeup. White with subtle blue accents is evident on the frontal portion of the flyknit upper, while its fused mesh is draped in blue. Finishing off the design are white swooshes, blue visible Zoom unit and a white rubber sole.

It’s been a cool minute since an Air Presto has caught my attention, but this brand new Nike Air Presto Utility Team Red has definitely got me interested. There’s nothing too crazy about the shoe, but this shade of Red always seems to be a colorway a tend to gravitate to.

The Presto Utility Team Red keeps things in tonal fashion as a comes with a waterproof, lightweight, synthetic leather upper paired with the TPU lace cage and your customary slip-on inner bootie. Below you will find the usual lightweight Presto sole unit with a heel-based Air-Sole unit and Duralon outsole.

My biggest complaint when it comes to the Nike Air Force 1 is the lack of comfort. Now that they’ve began releasing UltraForce versions of the shoe, I see myself wearing/buying more pairs of this of Air Force 1. One pair I have my eye on is the Nike Air Force 1 UltraForce Low Linen Leather.

As the name of the shoe suggests, the Nike Air Force 1 UltraForce Low come with Nike’s lightweight Nike Ultra technology. In other words, the sole is cored out, resulting in a lighter and much more comfortable version of the Air Force 1. As far as the upper goes, it keeps it simple as a Linen colored leather takes care of the entire base, including the debossed branding, laces and lining. Are you feeling this version of the Air Force 1 Low? If so, expect to see the Nike Air Force 1 UltraForce Low stateside in the near future.

You knew it was only a matter of time until the iconic Air Max 90 was given the Flyknit treatment, and here it is. NIkeLab has taken the Tinker Hatfield-designed sneaker and covered it in brand new materials.

Seen above, the NikeLab Air Max 90 Flyknit features a new lightweight and breathable Flyknit upper in two different colorways. The first is done up in Ocean Fog (blue) and the other in all-black. In addition to the new Flyknit upper, the Ocean Blue pair comes with premium suede detailing on the tongue, mudguard, and heel. The all-black pair has been hit with leather on the tongue and mudguard. Both are then finished off with contrasting Sail midsoles.

One of our most anticipated shoes this year has to be the Nike Vapormax, just look at this thing. Nike is known for their innovation and they won’t just settle for Flyknit, Lunarlon, and Air Max either. So they went ahead and transformed the way we look at visible air completely with the introduction of the Nike Vapormax, rumored to be headed to retailers on March 16th, 2017 according to The Drop Date. Of course, they Swoosh could also be holding onto this new model for the upcoming Air Max Day celebration, seeing as how it’d be fitting to introduce the next era of visible air while also paying tribute to the past.

We’ve already seen the fashion-ready variation with the COMME des GARCONS Nike Vapormax, but today we get the best look yet at the coming model featuring a dark grey and icy transparent bottom. The Vapormax features an outsole comprised completely of Air Max technology thanks to a new design that’s allowed the shoe to feature an exterior layer with no need for a traditional midsole. We can’t imagine how these will feel to walk in let alone run in, but we’re excited to find out.

Check out more detailed shots below and stay tuned for a release date confirmation in the near future. In the meantime, it looks like the Nike Vapormax is coming in March 2017.
