Kyrie Irving Honors Brotherhood with Klay Thompson with Special ANTA KAI 2

Kyrie Irving is ready to take on the 2025-26 NBA season. Ahead of the new campaign's start, the guard will highlight fellow Dallas Mavericks teammate and ANTA brandmate Klay Thompson with a special take on his KAI 2 basketball sneaker.

Aptly-named the KAI 2 "Klay," the pair honors the long-standing connection both NBA players have with one another. Having entered the League in the same draft year, Irving and Thompson have gone through the ups and downs of professional basketball throughout the same timeframe. Additionally, both have competed against each other on the NBA's biggest stage. Now teammates, both ANTA partners have gotten a chance to both admire and express this admiration to one another, bonding over mutual respect, love for the game, and desire to win another NBA title.

The ANTA KAI 2 "Klay" imagines Thompson as the wind and Irving as water. Ornate details inspired by both elements take over the second KAI signature model, which sees shades of blue, yellow, and green across its mixed-materials build.

Enjoy detailed shots of the KAI 2 "Klay" ahead. Pairs are scheduled to launch via ANTA.com, Foot Locker, and DICK'S Sporting Goods Nike LeBron 23.
