Put in the work to be great in the KD17, a shoe for gym rats and those who insist on running it back. A forefoot Air Zoom unit enhances your first step.

• A big forefoot Air Zoom unit offers a different level of velocity, either on the run or out of a standstill position. It offers snappy pop when the game revs up. The springy foam helps you stay fresh until the final buzzer.
• The bottom layer of the upper has Nike Air cushioning at the heel to add a pop to your step. We put a strong plastic piece at the forefoot to help keep you supported.
• The outsole pattern looks like a topographical map, with an array of contoured ridges that bend and deflect in multiple directions to provide traction for every move.
• A supportive piece under the arch adds stability.
