Kevin Durant’s KD 18 is usually a pretty bright shoe. Just look at the Eggplant, the Rise, even the entire Team Bank lineup. But this season, the signature silhouette goes full stealth mode with the Nike KD 18 Triple Black – and here’s everything you need to know.
Drenched heel-to-toe in black, black, and even more black, this KD 18 comes built with a layered mesh upper and rugged leather overlays that keep things structured and premium. A Terra Humara-inspired TPU cage stretches across the lateral and medial sidewalls for extra lockdown support, and it’s tied together with contrast-stitched laces that pop against the darkness. Underfoot, the sculpted midsole is loaded with Nike’s responsive Air Zoom cushioning, while a wavy traction pattern on the outsole ensures you stay glued to the hardwood.
