Kyrie Irving’s first signature shoe, the Nike Kyrie, dropped in late 2014 when Irving was a 4th year player and already an established star. He was the 20th player to get a signature shoe with Nike, but the first one since Kevin Durant, whose shoe the Nike KD debuted in 2007. The Kyrie line proved quite popular in the NBA, with a growing number of players opting for it as their primary game time shoe.

The story

But on December 5, 2022, Nike cut ties with Irving after Kyrie posted a Twitter link to a documentary with antisemitic messages. Kyrie quickly found a new home with Chinese shoe brand Anta, where he serves as the Chief Creative Officer of Anta Basketball, and has debuted his first signature sneaker with them: the Anta KAI.

At the 2024 NBA Finals, Irving debuted a custom KAI 1 Speed “Twin Flame” shoe honoring his parents. His father, Drederick, helped designers create it; the theme celebrated how he and Kyrie’s late mother, Elizabeth, met at Boston University. The toe embroidery honored Elizabeth’s Standing Rock Sioux roots, as reported by Bleacher Report.
