Kevin Durant’s “Aunt Pearl” sneakers go back to the Nike KD 4 in 2012, when he first released a pink colorway honoring his late aunt. Pearl helped raise Durant and passed away from lung cancer in 2000. He’s kept the tribute going through his signature Nike line ever since, and the Nike KD 19 “Aunt Pearl” is the latest pair, arriving in November 2026.

For this year’s release, the KD 19 gets a pink upper with a finish that looks similar to pink granite. It’s a different look from some of the older “Aunt Pearl” pairs, which have used softer shades of pink and floral details. The Swooshes come in a darker solid pink, with silver KD branding on the tongue and a pale pink outsole. Pink has been a part of every release in the series because of its connection to cancer awareness.

The Nike KD 19 “Aunt Pearl” releases November 13, 2026, in men’s sizing for $170. Pairs will be available through Nike SNKRS and select retailers.
