Nike KD 17 NRG 'Aunt Pearl'

The Nike KD 17 NRG “Aunt Pearl” pays tribute to Kevin Durant’s beloved aunt through a design rooted in remembrance and purpose. Continuing a meaningful tradition within Durant’s signature line, this special edition merges elite on-court performance with a deeply personal story.

Dressed in a soft pink foam-based textile upper, the sneaker stands out with shimmering iridescent “KD” logos on the tongue and heel. Detailed embroidery along the heel overlay adds texture and symbolism, reflecting the emotional inspiration behind the shoe. Performance remains at the forefront, with responsive Zoom Air cushioning in the forefoot paired with an Air Strobel unit in the heel for impact protection and energy return.

Blending thoughtful craftsmanship with advanced technology, the KD 17 NRG “Aunt Pearl” honors family legacy while supporting awareness for cancer research. The pair released on November 15, 2024, with a retail price of $150.
