The Nike KD 8 Elite is one of the most interesting advancements in signature sneakers in quite some time. The model has the high-arching neoprene-esque compression sock that spans up to the calf to thank for that sentiment, while Flyknit and Zoom Air hold down the more traditional aspects of the silhouette. Designer Leo Chang swung for the fences with this concept and what’s resulted has been mostly positive responses to KD’s latest Elite model. The Oklahoma City Thunder needed every last one of Kevin Durant‘s 31 points to beat the undermanned Clippers last night as OKC continues to close out their final stretch to secure the Western Conference’s 3rd seed. KD broke out a clean White/Orange PE that had “Home” written all over it thanks to a white base and brief royal blue accents on the branding. What do you think of KD’s latest PE?
