Merging music and sports, Metro Boomin introduces this special-edition Nike KD 17 "Hyper Grape" colourway as part of the “Producer Pack”. The St. Louis-born record producer is one of the most influential figures in modern hip-hop music, collaborating with several highly acclaimed rappers and artists.
This special-edition colourway features a storm graphic on the upper, referencing Metro’s anxiety and turmoil after his mother’s unexpected passing. White Swooshes decorate the lateral and medial rear, whilst the semi-translucent caging on the sidewalls is a nod to the Air Max Plus, Kevin Durant’s favourite sneaker in his childhood. A subtle “LJ” initial decorates the lateral foxing, complementing the purple signature and embroidered heart logo in the heel panel. The heroes’ logo on the tongue pays homage to the producer’s debut studio album, Not All Heroes Wear Capes, whilst inside the tongue are the names of his siblings. The cushioning system implements Zoom in the forefoot with an Air Strobel in the heel for maximum comfort on the court.
