Nike Kyrie 7: Creative, Quick, and Meticulous

Kyrie Irving is known for his swiftness on the court. His Nike Kyrie signature shoes are designed to support just that. The Kyrie 7, in particular, effectively delivers the following: 

Impressive court feel. Players who are quick on their feet will surely appreciate the responsiveness afforded by the Air Zoom Turbo unit in the forefoot, which is also used in other basketball shoes from Nike.

Data-based traction. Meticulous analysis of a guard's typical movements allowed Nike to come up with an outsole pattern that delivers grip exactly where the wearer needs it. 

Supportive construction. The Kyrie 7 delivers a stable fit through its lacing system and unique construction, which is a carry-over from the well-received Kyrie 6. 

Special colorways of the Kyrie 7 from Nike

The Nike Kyrie 7 is launched in at least four colorways that reference various aspects of Kyrie Irving's life and career. 

Special FX. The Special FX style references Kyrie Irving's love for filmmaking, which undoubtedly has the power to breathe life into even the most intricate imagination. It has a green outsole that symbolizes the green screen. Its upper is also composed of film-like layers that not only contributes to the shoe's durability but also gives it its unique aesthetics. 

Expressions. The Expressions colorway is a tribute to Kyrie Irving's love for the arts. Its upper is decorated with multi-colored brush-strokes to signify the different means of artistic expression.

Icons of Sports. Like many, Kyrie Irving grew up looking up to and being mentored by various sports personalities. Ther are represented by the colors used on the Icons of Sport colorway: red, blue, purple, and gold.

Soundwave. Kyrie Irving is a music lover, and the Soundwave colorway is proof of this. This pays tribute to how musical vibes help him improve his game.
