Kevin Durant\u2019s annual \u201cAunt Pearl\u201d editions have produced some of the most sought-after sneakers in his 15-year-old signature line, but more importantly, they have continued to raise awareness for the perils of breast cancer, and how it can affect one-in-three people the world over. Now, for the twelfth time, Durant will use his platform to both honor his late Aunt, and to drive cancer research funding through a partnership with the Kay Yow Cancer Fund with the Nike KD 15 \u201cAunt Pearl\u201d.
\nAs has been the case with releases past, Nike has dressed the pair in all-pink, with pastels serving as the majority. This year, there\u2019s significant detail in the release, with embroidered suede heels, geometric-graphic Swooshes, and tongues of embroidered velour. Going down to the midsole, pink is seen again with a full-length Zoom strobel setup for impact protection and a translucent pink outsole with pink roses featured finishes off the sneaker. KD\u2019s logo is seen on the tongue patch that is stitched on top of the floral-designed tongue. The pair is then completed by special rear pulls and inner tongue embroidery that directly nods to Aunt Pearl and the Kay Yow Cancer Fund.<\/p>\n
This version is made for outdoor court use with its extra-durable rubber outsole.the Nike KD14 has better playability, stability, and cushioning than the Nike KD15. However, the latest KD signature pair offers better breathability and airflow, which could be an important factor for some players<\/p>\n
