A new colorway of the Nike KD 15 pays homage to 50 years of hip hop, Nike had collaborated with 9th wonder to release a KD 15 in 2022. Kevin Durant has made it known he’s obsessed with music and more specifically the genre of hip hop.

This Nike KD 15 “50 years of hip hop” resembles his KD 15 “Off-White” PE that he wore when he was still with the Brooklyn Nets. The heels come dressed in a nice black leather material, the upper is dressed in a black and gray mesh, and the TPU plate and midsole are dressed in a cream color. Also worth noting there is no KD branding on the tongues like usual instead there’s Hip-Hop tongue tags and it also comes with a microphone hang tag.

While no official release date has been announced these will be retailing for $150 USD and will be one of the final KD 15 colorways to release before the Nike KD 16 hits shelves. For now take a look down below at a detailed look.

While Kevin Durant and the Phoenix Suns were eliminated by the Denver Nuggets in six games, Durant had been seen wearing his sixteenth signature sneaker against the Nuggets. While these aren’t official photos these are the best look yet at the Nike KD 16.

It seems like Nike kept the same material from the KD 15 on the upper of the shoes, but it is an entirely different look from the KD 15. The outsole pattern is quite a unique pattern as it looks like it’s from the inside of a watch that makes it move. The TPU plate takes up a good part of the lateral and medial sides. This colorway comes dressed in blue and purple with hints of aqua and white.

While no release information has been released yet it looks like the Nike KD 16 will be coming soon as Nike just released the KD 15 “What The” which for the most part means we’ve seen most of the colorways for the 15.
