As 15-time NBA All-Star and future hall-of-famer Kevin Durant embarks on his newest venture with the Houston Rockets, the folks over at Nike continue to bring back classic silhouettes and colorways from his illustrious signature basketball line. Dating back to 2008, the Nike KD line has brought up some classics and interesting colorways to say the least. Come 2026, we'll see two of the wildest Nike KD 6 colorways make a return.

The Nike KD 6 was first released in 2013, just a few years prior to Durant's departure from Oklahoma City. The silhouette saw a lukewarm reception upon its initial introduction, but has since skyrocketed in price on the aftermarket, fetching upwards of $350 for some of the more exclusive colorways.
Known for wild color schemes, we'll see the once-viral “Peanut Butter Jelly” colorway return along with the “All-Star” or “Gumbo League” colorways from 2014. Neither colorway garnered much hype with its original $130 retail tag, but pairs are currently around $400 on the aftermarket for original pairs.

While the original release was slated for the spring season of 2026, we'll see the “PBJ” Nike Kd 6 return in its original Laser Orange/Raspberry Red-Black-Gold Sand color scheme in January 2026. The Laser Orange synthetic Flywire uppers are made to resemble the color of peanut butter, while the oversized Nike Swoosh along the toe is covered in a textured jelly graphic. The shoe is accented with black for a clean look, making for arguably the funniest release we've ever seen from Kevin Durant.
