Nike KD17 Basketball Shoes

While Kevin Durant's all-timer status is already cemented, his hooper soul can't be soothed unless he's on the court, perfecting his craft. Put in the work to be great in the KD17, a shoe for gym rats and those who insist on running it back. A forefoot Air Zoom unit enhances your first step. We combined it with Nike Air cushioning to fuel full-court sprints and defensive stops that can decide games.

Speed and comfort

A big forefoot Air Zoom unit offers a different level of velocity, either on the run or out of a standstill position. It offers snappy pop when the game revs up. Springy foam helps you stay fresh 'til the final buzzer.

Cushioned and supportive

The bottom layer of the upper has Nike Air cushioning at the heel to add a pop to your step. We put a strong plastic piece at the forefoot to help keep you supported.

Cut quickly

The outsole pattern looks like a topographical map, with an array of contoured ridges that bend and deflect in multiple directions to provide traction for every move.

Stable for the court

A supportive piece under the arch adds stability.
