Let's get one thing straight: the name "Black Candy" sounds like it should be a soft, candy-colored palette, but the actual colorway code turns out to be Black/Stadium Green—a black base accented with military green tones, nothing like candy coating at all. This gap between the name and the actual colorway is, ironically, the only detail worth talking about with this shoe so far.
The Nike KD 19 "Black Candy" carries the style code IH1117-002 and will release on August 19, 2026 via Nike SNKRS and select retail channels, priced at $155. This is among the first colorway details revealed publicly since Kevin Durant's signature shoe line entered its 19th generation.
So far, the only materials officially released are the colorway code and price—no word yet on upper materials, cushioning tech, or design language. To get a real look at what "Black Candy" actually looks like on foot, we'll have to wait for more leaked photos or the official lookbook closer to the August release date.
