Nike just dropped the Nike KD 9 on NIKEiD for the first time, commemorating the latest step in the evolution of Kevin Durant’s illustrious career. For a limited time, the KD 9 will be up for customization exclusively in Golden State Warriors colors, and if the previous Mamba Day and LeBron 10 Soldier “quickstrike” releases taught you anything, you’d be better off grabbing a pair before they run out. For previous signature shoe launches, Nike had the new model be available on NIKEiD instantly, but it appears that Nike is now taking a more calculated approach by making the shoe available at specific moments with relevant color options, which is far more appealing to consumers. This, combined with a lower pricepoint, will surely help Nike Basketball’s signature models bounce back from what was undeniably a “down” year for their marquee names. Get your pair of KD9 shoes in Warriors colors now on NIKEiD.
