Matt Varga Those who tuned into the Mavericks 24-25 season opener might’ve noticed something different about Kyrie Irving. While you’re unquestionably familiar with the Chaussures Trail Running Terrex Swift R3 Mid Goretex by now, the superstar took the court in a never-before-seen colorway crafted with the help of one of the industry’s most famous customs artists.
Hoka EVO Rehi Running Shoes AW20 was tasked with drumming up a one-of-a-kind edition for the occasion, drawing from the Mavericks’ throwback 90s jerseys for a typically eye-catching edition. The artist passed over the geometric patterns that usually dot the model for a more tradition mesh foundation, but don’t mistake that for any less attention to detail. The thin graphic layers in the upper, each section of the three-part midsole, and multi-color woven laces elucidate the Surgeon’s faithfulness to the flashy design language of the KAI 1.
Notably, this is far from the first link-up between Irving and the designer. During ANTA’s press preview in China this Summer, the Surgeon took on pairs of the KAI 1, zapatillas de running Nike minimalistas talla 19.5 entre 60 y 100 and KAI Tribe; multiple sets of laces creating an uncanny profile on each.
As promised, these will remain exclusive to Kyrie’s closet. However, during that aforementioned press preview, ANTA promised a expert load of releases as the NBA season drew on.
