Original Story: At age 35, Kevin Durant remains of the NBA's most dangerous sharpshooters. He's about to pass Shaquille O'Neal to secure the 8th spot on the league's all-time scoring list, needing just nine points to successfully do so. At the same time, he has has continued to thrive off the court as well, teaming up with Nike Basketball to not only bring forth the Nike KD 16 this season, but to return to the Nike KD 4 as well. Bringing back pairs like the sought-after "Galaxy" and "Weatherman" looks, fans have enjoyed the silhouette's comeback season.
Now, what is one of the most legendary colorways from all 16 of Durant's signature shoes has finally been spotted in its 2024 form. Teaming up with Hasbro's foam-based brand Nerf, the Nike KD 4 "Nerf" is expected to hit shelves once again this summer, 13 years after its initial drop. Its brief preview sees all of the shoe's original detailing return to the sneaker -- from the multicolored arrangement to special spray paint-inspired co-branding across the two tongues. However, it's currently unknown if the shoe will be accompanied by its special packaging this time around.
At the time of writing, we've yet to hear from Nike Basketball regarding the return of the Nike KD 4 "Nerf." Stay tuned for updates as it is currently expected to reach shelves in July via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at a starting price of $150 USD.
