The Nike KD 3 has an iconic history.

Kevin Durant has had quite a few signature sneaker models over the years. One of his best would have to be the Nike KD 3. Overall, this is a model that was released closer to the start of his career. At this time, he was still playing for the Oklahoma City Thunder. Moreover, he was on the verge of leading the team to an NBA Finals appearance. Although the team wouldn't go on to win a title in 2012, it cemented Durant as one of the best players in the entire NBA.

Now, the Nike KD 3 is being remembered with some incredible retros. Moreover, we are starting to get some other colorways that KD wore but never released. In other words, those amazing player exclusives from the early 2010s are finally hitting the market. Below, you can find the official images for the "Easy Money" colorway. This is one that fans remember fondly, and they will be happy to see this one making a huge return.
