The Nike LeBron 8 was finished by the time the Air Max LeBron VII was released and Tinker Hatfield recently stated during an interview that the Air Jordan 2012 is already halfway done. Is Leo Chang ahead of schedule with Kevin Durant’s fourth signature shoe? The Zoom KD III hasn’t released yet and Durant’s busy dropping 30 a game while being stalked by his teenage neighbor, but this sample pair of what looks to be the Nike Zoom KD IV (4) recently surfaced and clearly some big plans are set with Kevin Durant’s signature line.
With a big ’4′ on the tongue and KD’s logo on the heel, this sample pair features the weightless Fuse material on the upper with an instep strap that is anchored on the medial side of the midfoot and locks down by the ankle. Also introduced to this possible KD IV is “InterLaceFit” construction, which, based one the altered lacing system, may provide improved flexion, which is important to Durant and his size 17 feet. Another notable point of focus is the absence of Flywire. Continue reading for a detailed gallery of this possible Nike Zoom KD IV and let us know what you think of the design. via hoopchina.

hmmmm….. not really feeling this one. the offset lacing and the weird looking strap. But it is a sample and it may look totally different by the time they release.

Nice looking ballin sneaker here…why weren't these the KD III's lol

I love these, I think Kd has one of the best lines ever, cheap and comftorable.

i guess they scrapped that model they showed us before, either that or they just kept the basic silouhette and outsole to the shoe that was previously shown a while back and reconstructed the midsole and basically everything else of the same material that the hyperfuse are constructed of…but with a strap and a 2 big nike swooshes
November 4th, 2010 at 12:24 pm
it has potential..im likin the strap
November 4th, 2010 at 12:41 pm
Damn, you sneakernews writers are fast at getting new info or scoops on upcoming shoes, keep up the good work!
The front part of the sole has an outrigger similar to the hyperdunk 2010 and the ZKV..hmmm…

those are actually beautiful

i hate that cheap material that nike is using on shoes like fuse & etc. but the design of the kd 4 is cool, they got time to improve on it.
November 4th, 2010 at 4:53 pm
These look very promising. I can't wait to see the official KD IV. The KD III look great for ball but not for casual wear. These could possibly be the first KDs that can be worn casually.

I guess they heard us when we said the Hyperfuse Should've been Durants sig model. Well played, NIKE… Well played.
November 4th, 2010 at 6:02 pm

November 4th, 2010 at 8:15 pm

November 5th, 2010 at 1:51 am

November 7th, 2010 at 11:49 am
what happened to the kd III's?
November 7th, 2010 at 12:47 pm
Awesome look! I bet its gonna look even better in other dark colorways.

u guys really brought the KD shoes down on this one.. u took out the pull up tongue and the gaming buttons too. i really liked both of the 2 features, it was what convinced me to get your KD IIIs, (other than you being my favorite player). maybe u guys can put those back in? or at least one of them? thanks a bunch. according to those pics, im not going to be coppin those this year.

the strap is awseome just the sides arent to good. Nike needs to make this shoe unique give it somthing other shoes dont have.
