Since 2012, Nike Basketball has honored Kevin Durant’s late Aunt Pearl annually. This tradition continues with the upcoming “Aunt Pearl” KD 17 set to release during Holiday 2024.
Durant collaborates with Nike to honor his beloved Aunt Pearl, who passed away from lung cancer in 2000. Aunt Pearl deeply inspired Durant, making these releases a heartfelt homage to her memory. Each year, the designs reflect Aunt Pearl’s influence, reminding us of her enduring impact.
The forthcoming Nike KD 17 iteration promises another touching tribute, blending innovative design with a poignant narrative. Dressed in Pink Foam and Beyond Pink colors, this heartfelt KD 17 features a Pink base with Purple-like accents on the Swoosh logos.
The shoe ensures breathability with perforations on the tongue and heel. “KD” branding with special tributes to Aunt Pearl adds personal touch. A Pink rubber sole completes the design, tying the theme together.
