Kyrie Irving’s bastion of fans have shown its loyalty by migrating from Nike to ANTA for their hooping needs. Wherever the ball-handling maestro goes, his advocates will follow, and the success of the newest Kyrie Irving shoes is a testament to that commitment.
Credit is due to ANTA as well; many of the colorways have been that loud, vibrant look that young hoopers tend to gravitate to. This overly teched-out look seen across the ANTA KAI 1 family of models remains a hot trend among basketball players, even if it’s mere plastic for cosmetic appeal.
This newly dropped two-pair set speaks to the all-day and all-night basketball grind. The “Sun” features a mega-hot mix of oranges and yellows with “SUN” placed on the strap. The “MOON” pair adheres to the colors of dusk via dark purples, reds, and oranges. These are sold separately and not as a unit, although it’d be hard not to snag both pairs.
This latest release by ANTA dropped in the Philippines; a US release has not yet been confirmed. Peep the detailed look in the meantime.
