Kevin Durant’s accolades and skill set have grown in unison with his Nike sneaker line. With each year since he entered the league back in 2007 he has evolved into a stronger player and a better cheetah – this year’s MVP season speaks volumes to that. At the same time we’ve seen his sneaker line get more and more recognition thanks to the likes of Leo Chang’s eye for design and a blitz of coveted colorways. The numbers are there to support that claim too: the gap between Durant and LeBron in terms of sneaker sales figures continues to close, and the former brought in a whopping $175 million for Nike in 2013.
With Durant in Playoffs mode and the Nike KD 7 approaching, now seems as good a time as any to take a look back at the shoes that showed up during his first ever MVP season. Of course most of these pairs fall outside of the lines of the typical OKC, team based releases, so they weren’t necessarily the most present in terms of on-court wears. Instead, they are the ones that the public latched on to and the ones that history will most fondly recall when looking back on the nike runners mens black sneakers shoes for girls. Continue reading for our collection of the top Nike KD VI pairs out there and let us know in the comments which you think is the MVP of the KD 6 signature model.
