First look at KD's new signature shoe.

Nike has today unveiled the KD11, the new signature sneaker for Golden State Warriors' All-Star forward Kevin Durant.

The kicks feature a Flyknit construction, a sock-like fit with an exaggerated pull tab and Nike's React foam cushioning in the midsole as well as a full length Zoom Air unit. Durant's "kd" logo appears at the heel in the center of a circle pattern, opposite a Nike swoosh that sits on the inner half of the shoe.

Thus far, the shoes have been revealed in two colorways: black and grey with a translucent blue sole, and another featuring a blend of blue and green. A release date for the Nike KD11 has not yet been announced but it is believed the new shoes will be available sometime in June as has been the case with some of Durant's other signature sneakers.

The Warriors will take the court in Houston tonight at 9:30pm ET for Game 1 of the Western Conference Finals, which figures to be the perfect opportunity for the Nike KD11 to make its on-court debut.
