Kyrie 7 EP

Another compelling sneaker from elite point guard "Kyrie Irving." Given Kyrie Irving's playing style, which emphasizes speed, ankle-breaking crossovers, and drives to the basket—all maneuvers that demand intense velocity—the design of his signature shoes must meet his specific requirements: "lightweight, responsive cushioning, and enhanced performance." This led Nike to conceptualize and design a shoe that answers these needs.
.
A point of particular interest is that this model was designed by Thai designer Ben Nethongkome. Naturally, the work of this Thai-blooded designer is extraordinary; he integrated various elements of Kyrie's identity, including his tattoos, crossover style, spin moves, and ball-handling, which Ben Nethongkome used as inspiration for the design.

The Kyrie 7 EP focuses on being lightweight, utilizing a three-layer mesh upper to reduce weight while still providing excellent lockdown and supporting fluid movement. On this point, Kyrie himself stated, "It’s light and it locks me down exactly how I need it to." Additionally, this model features two TPU "fingers" on each side. These TPU "fingers" assist with lockdown but also hide a personal touch: the inspiration for the fingers comes from Kyrie’s childhood, when his father taught him to build strength in his fingers and arms by pushing against a wall.
.
Furthermore, the Kyrie 7 EP features Nike Air Zoom Turbo in the forefoot to reduce impact. The wide, flexible Nike Air Zoom Turbo unit provides all-around comfort and engages during push-offs, boosting explosive power on the court, complemented by foam in the heel. With this combination of features, starting and driving to the rim becomes more efficient, while also providing better foot protection. We believe that crossover players or aggressive scorers will surely love the Kyrie 7 EP, as it perfectly aligns with Kyrie Irving’s own mantra: "light, responsive, and performance-enhancing."
