The wait is finally over! Photos of the Nike KD V leaks a few weeks after our exclusive interview with the man behind Kevin Durant’s Nike signature shoe line. Leo Chang kept a tight lip about the KD 5 details, but now you can take a first look at Kevin Durant’s fifth Nike shoe. His fifth shoe highlights KD’s need for a clean, youthful, timeless, and high-performance driven shoe.
Overall, here’s what the shoe has to offer: (Upper) Durable Hyperfuse construction composite upper coupled with intergrated strech lacing system with a flexible and comfortable forefoot. (Midsole) Injected Phylon midsole with intergrated heel clip for excellent lockdown and stability. Max Air heel cushioning and forefoot Nike Zoom unit. (Outsole) Lightweight, multi-directional flexible solid rubber outsole for smooth weight reductive traction.
As expected, the retail price for KD’s fifth shoe received a bump. While we were expecting a $5-$10 increase, the retail price increased $20. That said, the Nike KD V will retail for $115. A total of 10 KD V colorways are seen below. All colors are currently slated for a Spring 2013 release.
