After signing a historic deal with Nike in 2014, fans have been looking forward to Kevin Durant’s signature line of shoes and this year is no different. While many iterations of the KD 16 have hit the shelves this season, there’s one pair that seems destined to dominate in the year 2024. A celebration of Durant’s legacy known simply as “Slim Reaper”.
As many fans already know, the name pays homage to Kevin Durant’s sinister alter ego. A moniker which he earned during his time in the NBA, owing to his lethal combination of height, tough playstyle, and skills on the court.
The ominous colour scheme is comprised of black, metallic silver, bright crimson, and thunder blue, with tiny drops of red along the black trim mimicking the blood splatter of the Slim Reaper’s victims. The construction boasts Zoom Air-equipped midsoles, a TPU-caging system, and synthetic mudguards. Culminating in a sneaker that appeals to the most fashion forward and the hardcore athlete looking for a new high-performance upgrade.
KD 16 “Slim Reaper” is available now!
