Latest 2020 Nike KD 13 Brooklyn Nets White Black Basketball Shoes
When Kevin Durant signed with the Brooklyn Nets in July of 2019, New York sports fans were excited as one of their premier teams were getting one of the best basketball players in the world. Elsewhere, profile Swooshes also boast a dark hue, but feature white stitching reminiscent of Kevin Durant’s current team’s home jerseys. Sole units further partake in this KD 13’s two-tone arrangement, with midsoles laden with black speckling. PG 4-reminiscent lateral ridges, however, interrupt the “yin-and-yang” palette with a “Jade Aura”-like hue ripe for a glow-in-the-dark application.
The Nike KD 13 is set to release in a new colorway matching the Brooklyn Nets home team colors. The KD13 also features minimal materials on the upper to allow the model to be lightweight but still supportive. As for some of the first colorways to release, we have the “Hype” and “Chill” which is inspired by Durant’s love for music. As for the midsole, you can see that it is white with black speckles, all while the black outsole helps reinforce the colorway. This is unmistakeably inspired by the Brooklyn Nets and if you need a shoe to match your jersey, this is a great option.
The exploratory series taps into the idea of living a sustainable lifestyle on Mars, where “materials are scarce and there is no remission supply,” as quoted by Nike. The innovative systems complement a sustainable build, highlighted by a Space Waste Yarn upper made with roughly 90% recycled polyester, mounted atop a Crater Foam midsole that combines various foams with Nike Grind Rubber. The FastFit tightening system across the midfoot – which boasts a bold “Laser Crimson”-like hue and upcycled materials – further enables easy-on and off wear. While clad in grey, the sock-like, Space Waste Yarn upper equally indulges in Nike’s sustainability efforts as it uses approximately 85% polyester recycled from plastic bottles, clothing, and yarn scraps.
