Nikes New KD 9 Elite Model Comes with Some Vibrant Additions
Riley von Niessen — May 23, 2017 — Fashion
Recently, Nike launched a fresh colorway for its popular KD 9 Elite model, which has a flexible build that is simultaneously supportive -- making it the perfect companion on the court.
Due to its inclusion of bright fire-hued laces and midsoles, the new colorway was dubbed the 'Hyper Orange.' Balancing out these more vibrant components are hues of deep gray, black, and white, which make up the uppers and soles.
Due to the overall minimalist aesthetic that's created as a result, the new KD 9 Elites don't feature Nike's branding as boldly as some of its other models do, as it just has its iconic Swoosh logo featured near the backs of the uppers in gray.
