The Nike KD 6 All-Star is Coming Back for 2026

Kevin Durant’s 18-shoe Nike signature line is full of classic silhouettes, but if you were on the basketball court or in the sneaker game in the early 2010s, you know how important the KD 6 is. Released in the midst of Durant’s dominant 2013 MVP year, the KD 6 Aunt Pearl is one of the best Aunt Pearl releases of all time, with a steady run of classic colorways that followed. In the middle of that year, Durant took a trip to New Orleans for the All-Star Game and broke out a classic NOLA Gumbo-themed pair of the KD 6.

Now, after a decade-plus since Durant wore the shoe during the mid-season showcase, we’re getting a retro of the teal colorway with a wavy graphic upper. Launched as part of an All-Star NOLA Gumbo League pack alongside matching colorways from LeBron and Kobe, the shoes highlight New Orleans culture with a jazzy blend of yellow, red, and white streaks on top of a black base. The teal accents on the outsole and branding bring it all together like a seafood blend over dirty rice.

After rolling out a series of early KD model retros, the 6 is the latest Durant silhouette to get the return trip to relevance. The NOLA Gumbo All-Star colorway is joined by the PB&J, Meteorology, and Brazil colorways of the KD 6 in the initial retro releases. You gotta hand it to ‘em, Nike knows how to play the hits.

The Nike KD 6 All-Star NOLA Gumbo will be released Spring 2026 through Nike and select retailers in-store and online. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $145. For all the latest Nike KD news, download the Sole Retriever mobile app now.
