The Nike KD 4 "Aunt Pearl" is set to make a heartfelt return for Holiday 2024, reigniting the legacy of one of Kevin Durant's most personal and impactful sneakers.
Originally released in 2012, the "Aunt Pearl" edition stands as a tribute to Durant's Aunt Pearl, who passed away from lung cancer when Durant was just 11 years old. More than just a sneaker, it represents Durant's love and memories of his aunt while also championing the fight against cancer.
Decked out in a vibrant pink colorway, the sneaker serves as a beacon for breast cancer awareness, a cause deeply significant to Durant and millions worldwide. It features elegant pearl details and the Kay Yow Cancer Fund ribbon, further solidifying its commitment to supporting cancer research and awareness efforts.
2024's release is expected to be a 1:1 remake of the original, as per Sole Retriever.
This re-release is part of Nike's ongoing celebration of Durant's impactful sneaker legacy, which has seen the revival of iconic colorways like the Galaxy, Weatherman, Nerf, and Christmas all returning this year.
