The Aunt Pearl shirt are a must cop for me. Also want a robe similar to what the real Aunt Pearl robe for fun.
 
agreed its gon be crazy i wouldnt mind getting the aps but wont be sick if i miss them because there is alot of other heat dropping too,  my main focus is them asgs tho
 
Reseller prices aren't too bad for BHM. Will definitely cop before the ASG pack drops. It's gonna be a mission for those.

Kevin Durant was inseparable with his late Aunt Pearl who passed away from lung cancer in 2000.  His bond with her began at a young age and he loved spending time with his aunt watching movies, joking and laughing at his grandma’s house in Capitol Heights, Maryland, just outside of Washington, D.C. 

Aunt Pearl had a unique ability to reach the sometimes shy Durant as a kid.  Her memory lives on as KD keeps her spirit alive. 

“I made a promise to myself to always honor my Aunt Pearl for the example she set, and the encouragement she gave me to follow my dreams,” said Durant.

The KD VI Aunt Pearl pays tribute to KD’s aunt with a pink floral pattern on the upper and highlights of blue with subtle pearls.  The floral motif on the shoe is similar to the pattern on a robe that Aunt Pearl often wore. 

Adorned with a Kay Yow Cancer Fund logo on the tongue, the special edition shoe raises awareness in the battle against women’s cancers.  Proceeds from the shoe will go to the Kay Yow Cancer Fund that was founded in 2007 and an organization in which Nike is a founding partner.

Founded by former North Carolina State University head women's basketball Coach Kay Yow, the Kay Yow Cancer Fund is committed to finding an answer in the fight against women's cancers through supporting research programs and related projects.  One recent project includes a $100,000 grant awarded to the Tulane Cancer Center, in support of Women’s Lung Cancer research. Coach Yow believed strongly that coaches and athletes share not only a community, but should also share in a cause much larger than any game.

The KD VI Aunt Pearl shoe is available on Feb. 27 at Nike.com and select retail locations globally. There is also a matching t-shirt and hat that will be available in Feb.

ABOUT THE KAY YOW CANCER FUND: 

The Kay Yow Cancer Fund was officially founded on December 3, 2007 from the vision of the organization’s namesake Kay Yow, former NC State University head women’s basketball coach.  Coach Yow was first diagnosed with breast cancer in 1987 before succumbing to the disease on January 24, 2009.  The Kay Yow Cancer Fund is a 501 (c)(3) charitable organization committed to being a part of finding an answer in the fight against women’s cancers through raising money for scientific research, assisting the underserved, and unifying people for a common cause.  To date, the Kay Yow Cancer Fund has supported over $2.83 million in women’s cancer research and related programs focused on women’s cancers, with an additional $1 million grant being announced in mid-February.  For more information on the Kay Yow Cancer Fund or to make a donation, please visit www.KayYow.com.
the shirt 
 
Do y'all really need to quote every pic though as well as the 4 paragraphs of the description
 
The APs in the KD VI are a nice collectors item IMO. WOnder if other retailers will get em
 
I just can't see myself wearing a shoe with a flower print that is inspired by a woman's robe. Not knocking anybody that is digging these but I just can't do it. Not only do I think they look terrible, but I can't even fathom how I would explain the theme of these joints to my wife and sons with a straight face. Lol. Yall got these. I'm all over those ASG's though.
 
The aps :smokin
The shirt to match :smokin :smokin
The hat I don't know about, might be a tad much imo
 
 
Count me in for these..

See and to me these are much more questionable than the APs. To each their own, but I really don't get ya'll youngin's obsession with animal print. Now, I'm not one to ever judge anyone's sexuality by what they wear, but between the two, I'd question the animal print first.
 
yea sign me up for them too im feeling them asg5 colors in the shoe, im low key ready for detailed pics
