Nike continues to expand its Kevin Durant signature line with the new KD 18 “Soft Pearl” edition. This colorway features a clean cream mesh base with light grey leather overlays, giving the shoe a polished and stylish look. Reflective trims around the upper add subtle flair, elevating its off-court appeal.
The design takes inspiration from Nike’s Terra Humara with a structured midfoot cage, offering both support and visual edge. Metallic accents on the heel and Swoosh contribute to the sneaker’s modern feel.
Inside the tongue, Durant’s “Easy Money Sniper” nickname appears for the first time on the KD 18 series, creating a personal touch.
Another highlight is the insole, which includes a heartbeat graphic—a nod first introduced in the “Liquid Lime” colorway. This version tweaks the design with a mountain-like pattern, reinforcing its standout personality.
The Nike KD 18 “Soft Pearl/Metallic Silver” releases on May 1st at Nike.com or select retailers for $150.
In conclusion, this KD 18 blends performance with elegant styling. From reflective details to exclusive graphics, it delivers something new for both collectors and hoopers.
