Nike KD IV “N7”
With Kevin Durant being a vital member of the Oklahoma City community and being a premier star within the NBA, it only made sense for Nike to push this notable player and cause to the forefront. Beginning in 2012 with the Nike KD IV, the N7 makeups of the aforementioned silhouette would employ two different color ways with one involving a mostly white upper and the other employing a black makeup. Both models would be seen with vibrant accents throughout and detailed imagery along the upper.
In addition, “Everyone Leaves A Footprint” would be the tagline for the N7 Collection. Furthermore, the turquoise color-scheme highlighted within his signature shoe is highly symbolic of friendship and community in Native American culture, and is the foundation color of the N7 collection. Profits from the collection would help support the N7 fund that looks to create funding for Native American and Aboriginal grassroots sport and fitness programs for youth.
During the 2012 contest against the Clippers in which Durant sported the Nike KD IV “N7,” he would tally 22 points in a loss.
