Name: Nike KD 18 “Halloween”Colorway: Black/BlackSKU: IM1346-001MSRP: $170 USDRelease Date: October 21Where to Buy: NikeUpdate: Nike Basketball presented a special edition of the SNKRS Showcase series back in July, highlighting what to expect from the rest of 2025. One focal point was Halloween-themed footwear as part of its annual tradition of creating spooky sneakers. Kevin Durant’s skeleton-equipped “Halloween” edition of the KD 18 caught our eye, and now we have an official look at what to expect from the haunting look. Its upper not only features a skeleton print on each side, but also sports glow-in-the-dark elements and a reaper graphic underneath the tongue too. Release is set to take place on October 21 alongside other Halloween-themed kicks via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at a starting price of $170 USD.Original Story: Nike is embracing the spirit of the season with a hauntingly creative addition to Kevin Durant’s signature collection. Unveiled during Nike’s recent SNKRS Showcase as part of their Holiday 2025 lineup, the Nike KD 18 “Halloween” is slated to drop in October this year. This special edition brings a bone-chilling twist to KD’s latest silhouette, perfectly timed for trick-or-treaters and hoopers alike.The “Halloween” KD 18 taps directly into Kevin Durant’s “Slim Reaper” persona, drawing inspiration from Nike’s popular “Skeleton” Air Force 1 series. The shoe features a predominantly black mesh and synthetic base, providing a dark canvas for its most striking detail: a pale, bone-like skeletal hand graphic that wraps dramatically from the forefoot to the heel across the upper. This eerie visual mimics X-ray designs seen in previous holiday drops, transforming the sneaker into a wearable piece of anatomical art. Adding to the spooky vibes, the design incorporates a glow-in-the-dark outsole, ensuring that its haunting aesthetic stands out in low light. The Nike Swoosh is subtly outlined in white on the collar, while KD’s logo blends seamlessly into the all-black tongue, maintaining a sleek yet thematic look. The aesthetic also reportedly draws inspiration from the rugged design of the Nike Terra Humara trail runner, blending Nike nostalgia with Durant’s contemporary taste.Click here to view full gallery at Hypebeast

His mother’s handwriting, “These are your play shoes,” appears on the woven tongue label, signaling the campaign’s generational rally to inspire others to forge their legacies on the field. “This project is bigger than a shoe… It’s my story,” Diggs shares of the collaboration. “My mom has always been the voice in my head, keeping me grounded, and you see that in the details.”To celebrate the launch, Diggs hosted an intimate “Friends-and-Family” soirée in New York City, inviting notable figures from the entertainment space. Spotlighting the athlete’s latest venture in footwear and marking yet another milestone with ASICS, rooted in authentic storytelling, Diggs’ collaboration stole the show as guests socialized and enjoyed DJ sets, seasonal cocktails and hors d’oeuvres served during the bash.”ASICS trusted me to lead the creative, and we built something that feels like home – clean, sharp, and full of little nods to my childhood. Seeing the design and the campaign come to life is a thank-you to her and to everyone who helped shape me. I’m grateful to ASICS for believing in my vision and building this with me,” Diggs says of his continued partnership with the Japanese sportswear brand.Now available on ASICS’ website, the white GEL-DS TRAINER™ 14 retails for $160.00 USD.
