Fluidity, precision and efficiency are the trio of characteristics Kevin Durant exudes on the court. To that end, the Nike KD 17 is a reflection of the “Slim Reaper’s” playing style. 

Whether you’re a longtime fan of the Phoenix Suns’ Durant or a budding basketball superstar yourself, you can connect with the modern comfort and technical features that make the Nike KD 17 a powerhouse silhouette. And beginning August 16, you can cop the Nike KD 17 in a Deep Royal Blue, Opti Yellow and black “Travel Ball” color scheme. Hibbett will carry the shoes in men’s sizes

This probably isn’t the first time you’ve seen this upper. Its style resembles the Air Max Plus’ wave-like pattern, with soft, undulating mesh carved out with thermoplastic lines that form the lacing system. 

The midsole incorporates Nike’s innovative cushioning technology and delivers responsive energy return, mirroring Durant’s effortless acceleration. Oversize Air Zoom delivers velocity at the forefoot, buoyed by springy foam throughout and a burst of Nike Air cushioning at the heel. 

An arch support plate provides stability, while the topographical array of ridges offers a compelling traction pattern that ensures you can stop and start on a dime, just like the man himself.  

As a towering tour-de-force with an otherworldly scoring ability and defensive prowess, Kevin Durant knows how to move through graceful transitions and runs to the basket. The Nike KD 17 is yet another tool in any player’s arsenal looking to hone their own heat-of-the-game skills. 

Get ready to cop the “Travel Ball” Nike KD 17 men’s sneakers at Hibbett on August 16, and keep tabs on other must-have launches. 

Looking for basketball shoes that promise smooth moves and superior lockdown? The Nike KD 17 has you covered, and Hibbett can hook you up with the men’s “Travel Ball” edition.
