Despite suffering from an injury plagued season last year, Oklahoma City Thunder’s Kevin Durant has successfully bounced back in order to deliver 27.2 points, 8 rebounds and 4.5 assist this season so far. With Durant’s eighth signature model in full swing, another colorway has surfaced which pays homage to Chinese culture. Dubbed the “Perseverance” colorway, the silhouette hosts a mix of Team Red, Bright Crimson and University Red along the upper which sits on tops of a white sole/midsole. In addition, you’ll also find Plum Blossoms throughout the tongue as a nod to perseverance and resilience. The Nike KD 8 “Perseverance” is slated to release in China on February 6 with stateside availability currently in the works. Check out the imagery above and let us know your thoughts on the upcoming colorway for the Nike KD 8 model.
