NIKE KD1
This is Kevin Durant's first shoe. The design gives it an original look. This just looks fresh in my opinion.
Reviews
"Strengths: The Nike KD1 had a very responsive feel to it. When jumping, this sneaker seems to possess springs because one is able to vertically react quicker than usual. For example when jumping up to grab a rebound, your second jump seems to be quicker than others because of the Nike KD1’s responsiveness. Credit the KD1’s low profile Zoom Air that rests in the forefoot. The cushioning has proven time and time again to be the most responsive cushioning one can get. Though Nike traditionally puts “Zoom” in the official names of their shoes, the Nike KD1 definitely has Zoom Air setting this shoe apart from so many at its price of just $88. Another plus for the shoe was the flexibility of the shoe’s sole. Nike achieved this thanks to grooves that cut into the rubber cupsole at strategic points to help one transition and move up and down the court.
Weaknesses: Although the KD1 is a very lightweight, it was a little too stiff around the ankle area and on the bottom of the foot for the first several wearings. The patent half patent leather/half synthetic nubuck gives an interesting look for the shoe, but after a few wearings the shoes showed a little more wear than I anticipated to see. Lastly, though alot of basketball is played on the front half of your feet, it would have been nice to have Zoom Air in the heel."
