The Nike KD 18 "Soft Pearl" has arrived, and while the color is a softer tone, the silhouette is one that presents strength.

Due out on May 1, the shoe arrives dressed in cream-toned upper, which itself is crafted with a mesh design that allows for breathability and comfort. Also present on the silhouette are light blue accents that serve as a contrast to the light yellow overlays dispersed throughout. The Nike Air Zoom rubber base is built into the shoe as well, giving the silhouette a great amount of grip and traction. This "Soft Pearl" colorway accompanies the more vibrant "Liquid Lime" silhouette, which was released earlier this month.

There's been a series of cool colorways released by Durant this month, including the Nike KD 18 "EYBL", which garnered a lot of attention from hoops fans for shining a spotlight on the Elite Youth Basketball League (EYBL). That silhouette boasts a shiny silver design with a hint of green and an ice blue outsole.
