The Nike KD 8 ultra-high-top edition was launched in 2016 specifically to enhance Durant’s performance in the NBA Playoffs. This performance-driven design incorporates various features, including visible Zoom Air cushioning, an ankle collar, an integrated calf-length compression sock, and Flywire technology reinforced with Kevlar aramid fiber. The predominantly white color scheme of the shoe is complemented by subtle accents of Star Blue, Midnight Navy, and Photo Blue, which add a touch of elegance to its utilitarian appearance.
