Nike KD 17 B.A.D.
Buy at Nike
Kevin Durant’s signature sneaker line with Nike has long paid tribute to those who affected his life, particularly the women who helped shape Durant into the man he is today. We all know of the Aunt Pearl series, which has been ongoing for over a decade, but more recently, Durant has looked toward his mother and grandmother to inspire sneaker releases. While Wanda, Durant’s mother, was once honored on the KD 16, his grandmother, Barbara A. Davis, has received her colorways of the KD 15 and 16. Now, Barbara is getting her own KD 17 colorway.
Continuing with the lilac theme found on previous B.A.D. colorways, the silhouette retains its engineered mesh base but sees some elevated materials. On the base, the lilac mesh transitions into a deeper purple hue as you move back toward the midfoot, passing by the Air Max Plus-inspired TPU overlays in purple. A satin velvet material is present along the tongue, surrounding the KD-branded tongue tag and the tonal lace set.
