Nike KD7 ‘Uprising’
Oct 14th
It’s rare to find an athlete at the top of his or her sport that possesses both genuine humility and a ferocious appetite to consistently outwork the competition. Kevin Durant’s rise to superstardom parallels the rare weather phenomenon known as sprite lightning, which served as inspiration for the KD7 ‘Uprising’ colorway. “I started from the bottom with humble beginnings and I’m focused on rising to the top,” said Durant. The KD7 ‘Uprising’ also is a nod to Durant’s fascination with meteorology that began when he was a kid, and features atmospheric graphics on the Swoosh outsole. In addition to the kicks we’ll be carrying a matching Digital Elite KD Crew sock that will be available at select stores and online for $ 30 and also a matching ‘Lightning’ tee for $ 35 available in stores and online as well (pictures below).
The Nike KD7 ‘Uprising’ drops this Thursday, October 16th at Foot Locker, House of Hoops by Foot Locker and Footlocker.com (starting at 8am EDT). Men’s ($ 150), grade school ($ 115), pre-school ($ 75) and toddler ($ 55) sizes will all be available. Check the Launch Locator to see which stores will have this release.

Nike Air Foamposite Pro Premium ‘Elephant Print’
Oct 9th
With the range of Foamposites that Nike has been releasing lately, it has been a nostalgic time for sneakerheads. In 1997, the design was so ahead of its time that it resembled something out of s sci-fi film. Eric Avar, the designer of the Foamposite describes it as the result of “pure experimentation.”
The latest iteration — dubbed the Nike Air Foamposite Pro Premium ‘Elephant Print” — also brings with it the famed elephant print, which is closely tied to the Jordan signature series. This Foamposite Pro comes in a wolf grey, black and hyper pink colorway. Hyper Pink energizes an otherwise neutral colorblocking, providing a new-age touch to the storied silhouette on the back heel pull tab as well as the insoles and full translucent outsole. Inspired by the ‘90s, made for today.
Available online only in Mens on Saturday.
Also available in stores and online in Grade School sizes. Check out Release Locator for stores.
