Originally released in 2014, the Nike KD 6 All-Star “Illusion” is set to finally make a comeback in 2026. Arriving when Durant’s early signature line is once again receiving a lot of attention, this retro refreshes a highlight colorway from Nike Basketball’s peak.

Worn by Kevin Durant at the 2014 NBA All-Star Game in New Orleans, the “Illusion” dropped as part of the brand’s colorful “NOLA Gumbo League” pack. Sporting an abstract graphic upper that was inspired by Durant’s game being difficult to read for opponents, it features a mint green glow-in-the-dark outsole, along with other accents like metallic touches, premium overlays, and KD’s logo on the heel.
Arriving as Nike continues to relaunch popular All-Star drops, the “Illusion” retro once again shines a spotlight on the brand’s performance-obsessed glory days. Fans of the KD 6 will appreciate that this pair offers both the retro styling and the on-court tech of a low-profile silhouette with responsive cushioning.
