The Nike KD 16 shares some similarities with the Nike KD 14 as it opts for a low-cut build that features a textured multi-layer mesh on the forefoot and heel while a synthetic mudguard is shown wrapping around the entire model. Other details include the TPU caging system that features ventilation on both lateral and medials sides as well as blending onto the forefoots split midsole.

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!

My son when off in these shoes dropped 20. He said they were comfortable and the grip/ traction was real good. I could tell by his confidence that he had some good hoop shoes finally. Got him a size 9 men's and they fit perfectly. Now to the disappointment part! He wore them in one game and one practice and the sole started coming apart and the color started to rub off on the Nike sign as well as well as other parts of the shoe. I repurchased a new pair because he liked them so much and returned the defective pair. The customer service by chat was great and found me a store to do my quick return. I wish they put more work into the design just as much as they did with the function. Overall great shoe

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.

At first glance I love the colors and styling. The shoes have various textures and materials which add the visual appeal. I do think they appear a bit wide, but the fit of the shoe is not wide. In terms of comfort they feel a bit stiff. I have only been using them for about a week, so maybe that will improve over time. However, I am not sure how much effort I am willing to put in to try and break them in. It is a bummer since I love the look of them.
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 recieved these kd16 as a gift and the packaging was very catchy. After pulling the shoes out putting them on amd wearing them the comfort was amazing. My foot sank into them and had great support. The fit qas just perfect not too tight not to loose.Now to the design, the colors where so bright and catchy loveb hem and the design was one of a kind you definately need to purchase a pair ! The fabric of the shoe i was questioning at first but after i love love love it ! So soft !
The KD16 shoes are incredibly comfortable! These shoes are well-made and sturdy. The shoes did fit a little narrow, but the insoles were very comfortable. One of my favorite features is the color scheme. I love the style of the KD16! The one complaint I have is that while playing basketball in the shoes, my feet felt a little cramped. These shoes can be worn to work with slacks or on the basketball court. I've worn them both places and think they look great. I would recommend these shoes if you love looking stylish. Overall, this is a great looking, comfortable and wearable shoe anywhere.
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 ...
