The Nike Zoom KD 9 GS ‘Fire and Ice’ pack, unveiled in November 2016, draws inspiration from Kevin Durant's winter training days in Maryland as a young athlete. After enduring freezing outdoor sessions, Durant would warm his hands by pouring hot water over them. The theme of contrasting extremes is vividly captured in the pack, with flame and ice graphics adorning the Flyknit uppers, while inverted pull tabs and external heel counters enhance the overall design. Furthermore, both shoes boast Zoom Air midsole cushioning and translucent rubber outsoles, contributing to the overall comfort and performance of the sneakers.
