About the Nike KD19 "Butter Candy"
The KD19 is the current shoe in Kevin Durant's Nike signature line, and this Butter Candy make-up runs Solar Flare with Stadium Green. Cushioning is stacked: a full-length Air Zoom Strobel unit sits above Cushlon 3.0 foam, a combination Nike builds for both bounce off the dribble and a softer feel deep into a game. A TPU midfoot plate works with that stack to keep the shoe stable through fast, unplanned direction changes, and Nike adds another TPU piece at the midfoot and heel that it ties to Durant's nickname. The outsole carries an aggressive multi-directional pattern with 7 and 35 cuts worked through it for grip on hardwood.
Nike lists the KD19 as a basketball shoe in both men's and women's sizing, and frames it around the positionless game Durant plays. Within the signature line it is the current on-court model rather than a lifestyle retro.
