Remember when KD dropped 36 in the 2012 All-Star game to lead the Western Conference to victory? Yeah, me neither, but you probably remember the kicks he wore during that game. While the NBA All-Star game isn’t exactly known for the high level of competition it saw back in the 90s, it has become the marquee weekend in the basketball sneaker release calendar. Every year, retailers wait for that weekend to break out new models or bring back timeless retros. At the 2012 All-Star game Nike introduced us to the KD 4 Galaxy and Kevin Durant christened them by going on the win MVP honors for the game. With all that said, 2024 marks the return of the iconic colorway.
The release comes dressed in a chrome-coated upper to give the vibe of a NASA Spaceship with a dark grey velcro lockdown strap branded with an orange swoosh. The sneaker features galactic prints on the midsole and sock liner while using bright orange to highlight the swoosh and other details. The 2012 model also featured an embroidered KD35 with a unicorn on the tongue to symbolize how unique of a player he is.
The Nike KD 4 "Galaxy" is set to release during the NBA All-Star Weekend on February 15th, 2024 via the Nike SNKRS app and select Nike Basketball retailers for $130. Until then, follow us on Twitter and Instagram for all the latest Nike Baksetball news and sneaker release info.
