Breaking new ground for athletes, KD provides unprecedented access to his life through his YouTube channel. It's this type of authentic connection that KD wanted to create with his fans when he first partnered with YouTube in 2017. In celebration of his channel, the KD12' YouTube' features co-branded graphic hits on the tongue and heel that celebrate two icons coming together to change the game. Ultra-Responsive Cushioning Full-length Nike Zoom Air cushioning is articulated to follow the shape of your foot, providing a great heel-to-toe transition. For the first time ever in a signature shoe, it's stitched directly to the upper instead of being set into foam, so it responds to your force. An additional Zoom Air unit stacked in the heel gives you extra responsiveness on the court. On-Demand Lockdown Four-way directional Flywire cables provide targeted stability and on-the-fly lockdown. They relax when you' re not in motion, but when you need them to perform they deliver. Broken-In Comfort Lightweight, multi-layer mesh uses minimal backing material for less stiffness and a broken-in feel. Lightweight Flexibility A perforated midsole helps keep the foam very flexible, while helping to reduce overall weight and giving visibility to the cushioning within.

Awesome shoes. These shoes combine comfort and court feel, a great combo for a larger perimeter player. I've been really impressed by the durability of the grip on the bottom. The only thing I would say is if you are used to something like Jordans with a forefoot only zoom unit, these feel a little bit less explosive vertically.

I research basketball shoes before I purchase them, usually 2-3 months in advance. It is a big investment to find the right basketball shoe that offers comfort, support, traction, durability, lockdown, premium materials, lightweight and full length cushioning to boot! The shoe is true to size and very comfortable. There is no break-in time, just put it on and hit the courts. The full length zoom and the ankle support eliminated my need to wear ankle wraps. I actually use these shoes for volleyball now because they offer that added support, cushioning and bounce in my jumps. These shoes were so nice, I am glad I picked up 3 pairs. I plan on picking up another pair of KD12s, before the KD13s arrive this summer.

Really great color, comfortable shoe. Nike & Kd did a nice job this time around. My only complaint is I made a custom pair of this shoe on Nike id but the colors were limited and some of the personalation could be upgraded a touch. Otherwise very pleased and will continue to be a loyal Nike customer for life.

I just bought these two weeks ago and it’s my second pair! Love them, they are comfortable and so far the shoe performs well on the court. Great job with these KD12’s
I am 5'11" and 215 lbs and live very active lifestyle. My workout includes running and basketball. These shoes are great for anything. For me, these shoes fit true to size. I also like how there is lots of room in the toe box, as I have wide feet. Holds the heel very well compared to most basketball shoes.
The nike kd12 is really comfortable but it does run a bit narrow. I would definitely recommend buying, but if you have a wide foot consider going up a half size or try them on at a store.
One of the best shoes I have owned in a long time. Great traction on the court and comfort. The cushion is low and responsive. I love the design and overall look of the shoe!
I got these shoes for my daughter for basketball and she has only wore them on the basketball court and now they arewearing out on the inside of the shoe near the ankle area. I have had other nike shoes that cost way less that last a lot longer.
The KD 12 EYBL Nationals is very unique by itself. The sole on the shoes are perfect for running down court and jumping, while maintaining stability. The vibrant color design pattern is fashionable for any occasion; best believe you will be the center of the spotlight.
When I open the box. The color(orange/red) confused me the color was brighter than I expected. Now I'm thinking do I have top that matches these shoes. The shopaholic, I am lucky I had a few things instead of all black or white to wear with them. Other than the colors that caught me off guard, I really like them. They feel good and they get attention. I am happy with the purchase.
