As we all patiently wait for the decision on whether KD stays a Nike Brand athlete or takes his talents to Under Armour, the Nike KD 7 ‘Calm Before The Storm’ is preparing to release. I don’t know about you guys I hope he stays with Nike but for the amount of money UA is offering I would probably be on the fence and leaning towards them as well, get paid KD.
This weekend the 4th color way for the KD 7 is going to hit retailers so the folks at Foot Locker have taken the time out to provide some release details which should help you land a pair, so let us know down in the comments if these are a DEF Cop or DEF Not.
Kevin Durant’s seventh signature shoe fuses performance innovation with a creative narrative across five color ways that are centered on the weather. Nike designer Leo Chang created an innovative shoe for Durant that meets the needs of the reigning MVP’s quickness, power and unpredictability, just like the forces of nature. Creatively, Chang applied Durant’s on- and off-court insights that are brought to life through color blocking, graphics and textures to tell stories that are both personal and inspired.
The “Calm Before The Storm” features a grey and pink color way of this KD7 is indicative of skies that appear tranquil before the onset of a powerful storm, though Durant typically remains calm even throughout a swirling frenzy on-court. Pick up a pair starting this Saturday, August 16th for $150 at Foot Locker, House of Hoops by Foot Locker and Footlocker.com (starting at 8:00 a.m. EDT). A matching Nike Elite Digital Ink crew sock will also be available at select stores for $30. Check the Launch Locator to see which stores will have them.
