KD VI

As we know summer is here and we're expecting to see a couple of releases but to start the summer of right we're seeing the KD VI. Seems to be happening pretty quick feels like the V just dropped yesterday. Kevin Durant and Nike decided to do something alittle different here. Most athletes usually have a sneaker drop about something happening in their life or something that happen like KD had the " Scoring title KD IV's " and LeBron had the " What the MVP's " but now Nike and KD are doing something from the past. The first few colorways dropping of the KD VI are based on Kevin Durants past life and we'll explain the colors here. Some new tech too , Hyperfuse Flywire a new tongue Max Air unit , Review coming soon

MADE IN MARYLAND

Durant was born and raised in Seat Pleasant, Md., just outside of Washington, D.C. He honed his game after spending countless hours at the Seat Pleasant Activity Center, his home away from home. The rec center’s trademark teal and yellow colors, spotted on the center’s doormat by Chang on his first trip to Seat Pleasant in 2008, inspired the lead KD VI colorway launching globally July 3.

Upcoming KD VI colorways

KD VI Meteorology: If Durant was not playing basketball, his dream occupation would be tracking weather as a meteorologist. Atomic red, olive and black are featured in a custom graphic mimicking Doppler radar mapping. Launch: Aug. 3.

KD VI NYC 66: When Durant scorched the Harlem blacktop and scored 66 points on Aug. 2, 2011, the world took notice. Despite the lockout, basketball didn’t stop for a 22-year-old Durant who’d play anyone at anytime. Launch: Aug. 17.

KD VI Bamboo: The power of nature and patience comes to life in Chinese bamboo. Typically after four consecutive years of delicate care, bamboo undergoes a transformation in its fifth year.
