Before becoming one of the world's greatest basketball players, Kevin Durant honed his craft at an outdoor court in Fairmount Heights — the apparent inspiration behind this upcoming colorway of the Nike KD 9.
The tonal grey scheme likely represents the concrete laid on the court in Durant's hometown. Keeping things simple, a lighter shade of grey fills in the Swooshes and laces, while a blue-tinted translucent sole caps off the look below.
For now, the "Fairmount" Nike KD 9 is scheduled to release on Friday, Nov. 25 for $150.
