As a recognized beauty in the sneaker industry, the "anti-breast cancer" color scheme has always been favored by gamers with its pleasing pink tone and unique humanistic care theme.
Since 2007, Nike has launched related themed products every year, among which Durant's "Aunt Pearl" series is a well-talked about classic.

This year, the Nike KD4 "Aunt Pearl" will officially return at the end of the year, and the replica has finally surfaced online!
Not only does the fresh pink color scheme continue, but the pearl motif on the heel and the Kay Yow Cancer Fund logo on the tongue are also brought back with the original.

The OG version also features Durant's words to commemorate the Aunt Pearl inside the shoe's signature large magic strap, and it is no surprise that this remastered version will be faithfully restored.

The current 2012 OG version of the KD4 "Aunt Pearl" is priced at around ¥3000 RMB, which is not cheap.
However, in the past two years, after Nike restarted the KD4 revival, it has brought back the super popular "Weatherman" and "Galaxy" colors, and the market price of the remastered version has remained around ¥1000 RMB.
The new Nike KD 4 Retro "Aunt Pearl" will be released worldwide at the end of 2024 and will be priced at $130 USD.
