The KD 5 Elite was introduced by Kevin Durant as his fifth signature shoe for the postseason in April 2013. This revamped low-top sneaker incorporates several advanced elements, including an articulated foam tongue, dynamic Flywire technology, a sturdy carbon fiber heel counter, and a caged Zoom unit situated in the heel. In terms of aesthetics, the initial release of this model showcases a white upper that sits atop an icy blue translucent outsole, adorned with metallic gold accents that draw inspiration from the revered Larry O'Brien Championship Trophy.
