Nike KD 18

The Nike KD 18 is the eighteenth signature model for Kevin Durant, currently of the Houston Rockets. Following a super-exclusive drop as part of Nike Basketball’s “Black Label” pack in February 2025, the model made its earnest debut with “Liquid Lime” colorway in April. It’s got a low-top height and design inspired by the Nike Air Terra Humara, continuing a trend of Kevin Durant shoes being informed by past Beaverton classics. Performance-wise, the KD 18 features Cushlon 3.0 foam and Air Zoom cushioning.

Several Nike KD 18 colorways are releasing in 2025; see all the latest below.
