KD18 'B.A.D'
Basketball Shoes
Klarna Available at checkout.
Wanda Durant is the real MVP, but KD is a grandma's boy, too. Barbara A. Davis, KD’s grandma, was the one who told KD his height was a gift, even when his classmates teased him about his prodigious size. Her house was an escape of sorts for the Durant family, a place to laugh, cry, listen and learn from the family matriarch. Barbara's enduring memory lives on in these special all-purple KD18s, an homage to her favourite colour. Her initials 'B.A.D.' are embroidered on both tongue tops as well.
- Colour Shown: Washed Purple/Lilac/Hemp/Fire Pink
- Style: HV1992-501

Zoom, zoom
A big forefoot Air Zoom unit offers a different level of velocity when exploding, either on the dead run or from a standstill position. It offers a different level of snappy pop when the game revs up. Our latest version of Cushlon foam adds a soft, comfortable sensation and freshness that can help you come the 4th quarter.
Pop your Steps
The bottom layer of the upper has Nike Air cushioning at the heel to add a pop to your step. A strong plastic plate directly underfoot contours as you flex. It works with the forefoot Air Zoom unit to give you a snappy first step, while also providing support and stability.
Let it Breathe
The upper is made of open-holed sandwich mesh, which not only offers a different level of breathability when the action heats up but also helped us reduce the weight of the shoe.
Stay contained
A tough plastic cage offers customisable firmness on both sides of your foot that moulds to your foot. It helps keep you on top of the platform.

#productsprovidedbynikeKd shoes for life!
TripleOG - 26 Nov 2025
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These shoes are different than what I go for colors, but I wanted something different. I been wearing Kd shoes last pair was the 16 which were really snug from the sides to the toe box . But these were surprisingly really well made for a wide foot . Of course they’re always know for the bite but by far I like these so much more than the recent kds. They do look bigger but it’s functional is all that matters.
