There are few NBA players with the combination of speed, agility and ball handling abilities like Kyrie Irving. His ball control and court awareness is a marveling accomplishment; Nike Basketball crafted the Kyrie 3 to heighten those attributes while also incorporates subtleties unique to Irving’s off-court sensibilities.
Equipped with supreme lockdown to coincide with Irving’s low center of gravity, the Nike Kyrie 3 also denotes traction pods critical for the utmost responsiveness. Irving’s third signature silhouette will debut in this “Black Ice” colorway, a shift from the traditional opening Kyrie shoe in “Inferno”.
Personal touches include Irving’s own motto “JBY” for Just Be You, along with “H+H” which abbreviates hungry and humble. The shoe also references Irving’s late mother Elizabeth with Roman numerals VIII and XIII at the footbed symbolizing tattoo’s on Irving’s left and right wrists.
Expect the Nike Kyrie 3 “Black Ice” in stores following Christmas Day on December 26 for $120.
