My daughter needed new shoes for basketball camp and these are just about perfect. They are extremely comfortable from day one. The grip is great and they are light weight for her. We really like the low top style of this shoe as well, I think that helps make them feel so light. The black and purple color way with a subtle zebra is just right. Not too flashy but very visually interesting. We found the sizing to run half a size small so I would take that into consideration when ordering. You don’t be disappointed!

The KD16’s are a versatile and all around powerhouse set of basketball shoes. They exceeded my expectations when it came to grip on the hardwood or any surface for that matter. Can be used to look fashionable with casual fits or the key to your success on the court. I recommend this shoe not only to look like you have solid fashion sense, but to facilitate your skills to their maximum capability on the basketball court.

I got the black and purple KD's. They are very comfortable. I hooped a few times in them and wore them once on date night. Hooping..... They are very supportive. Plenty of cushion while running. The laces stayed tied and I didn't have to readjust them constantly. I have flat feet and the arch support was not overwhelming. Date night....I found a purple shirt that somewhat complemented my new kicks. Nike should sell a shirt, directly next to the shoe,that is the same purple and black as the shoe. Finding a purple shirt was the hardest part. Overall, I would defiantly recommend these to a friend and I would defiantly buy other colors of this shoe.
Fit - true to sizeComfort - Comfortable with no break inThe shoes looks great but doesn't stand out from other shoes, would prefer the colors to be more bright and different color schemes but that's just my preference, the box is also just all black but has the design and logo which is nice. I like the bottom of the shoe which is bright with designs.The shoe fits snug true to size and isn't stiff like other shoes that require a break in, they're comfortable at first try.The design of the shoe doesn't stand out to much, typical basketball shoes, the design and logo is more on the bottom of the shoe and box more than anything. The shoes aren't too heavy and the material feels nice, soft, and sturdy.These are good basketball shoes which I've tried and haven't ...

I was very impressed with the performance of the KD16 basketball shoes. I’m a weekend hooper, who mostly plays with friends rather than competitively and in tournaments. That said, the KD16’s truly make you feel like you own the hardwood, whether you’re all pro or novice. The KD16 performed very well on concrete and wood gym floor; they allowed for precise, strong cuts in the paint with no slipping. The shoe is true to size and has a nice contoured fit. The KD16’s overall build is firm and the fabric is dense and high quality, resulting in very good sole and ankle support. My favorite part of the shoe is its design and meticulous detail with various designs and colors throughout. The designs are subtle but the various colors compliment each other and are true eye ...

My favorite part of the shoe is its design and meticulous detail with various designs and colors throughout. The designs are subtle but the various colors compliment each other and are true eye catchers. While the quality of these shoes is very good and impressive, if I had to change one thing about the KD16’s, I would suggest a lighter material; at times, the shoes felt a bit clunky and heavy when jogging down the court. Overall, I was very impressed with the KD16’s and are a nice addition to the KD series.
This shoe has been great for hooping. It fits really well and true to size. When playing, I don’t feel like I’m gonna lose grip when I stop rapidly or when I jump. I also notice that the shoe in general is really comfortable and tight around the toes so I don’t get any blisters. I really like the design of the KD 16 as it’s pretty modern but it’s still not too flashy, just right for me. I feel like I wouldn’t change anything about it. I really like the shoe so I’m giving this at 5 out of 5!
The Nike KD16 shoes have all the necessary features of great basketball shoes - I love everything about these shoes from the look, feel, performance and design. They are super soft and comfortable on your feet. The lockdown and containment are outstanding. I love the low-cut silhouette and soft mesh lace top that feels like silk on your feet. The lace line is pretty wide which makes the lockdown broad. The breathability is amazing - there is rubberized reinforcement underneath of the tongue with ventilation channels all over it. Gear type pattern outsole tread provides excellent grip. There is a lot of flex in the forefoot, which provides very smooth heel-to-toe transition. The KD16 shoes go trues to size and offer roomy fit but need a little bit of breaking on ...

These are now my favourite hoops-ready kicks!
So after having the Kyrie 6 and the PG 6 and playing indoors with both, I have to say that the KD 16 is the best of every world. The ankle support is terrific, especially since I tend to roll my ankle a lot. My biggest gripe with the PG 6 was that after intense amount of play, my heel would get worn down, but with the KD 16, my cushion and comfort in general is great. The traction is great, and the carbon shank plate adds a lot of bounce. If you play like a wing, two-way, or a 2 in general, this shoe is great for you.
These are the most comfortable pair of shoes I’ve ever put on. The amount of support and padding throughout the shoe is unlike any other. The comfort level is definitely 10/10. However the amount of cushion makes the shoe fit tighter than most so it may be worth it to go up 1/2 size depending on what type of fit you prefer. These are perfect hooping shoes and provide great durability as well. I don’t particularly care for the colorway of these but with the level of comfort these provided it’s not an issue.
