Kevin Durant’s time with The Swoosh has seen the NBA superstar launch 17 different mainline signature sneakers, many of which have earned a place in the brand’s iconic Christmas-themed collections. This has cemented his line as a centerpiece of Nike Basketball’s holiday celebrations over the past decade, and the legacy will continue onto the Nike KD 17. Alongside this KD 17, Nike Basketball has also given Ja Morant, LeBron James, and Giannis Antetokounmpo’s signature models Christmas-themed makeovers.
Taking on an icy-themed color scheme, the KD 17 sees its engineered mesh base coated in a glacier blue shade. Above this, the Air Max Plus-inspired TPU midfoot cage features a gradient pattern transitioning from darker to lighter blue, with the top two eyelets featuring a metallic silver finish. The silver hues extend to the tongue label and Swoosh, the latter surrounded by a cracked ice graphic.
