Kyrie trashes upcoming Kyrie 8's

[Thavoiceofthevoiceless]

Kyrie tryna be like Bron again

Bron's aren't selling like that either if we're being honest

 

[revan]

False.

3s - 5s were some of the most popular shoes in the league at the time of their release with some dope ass colorways. Outside of that, performance wise only the KD9 and PG2 is fukking with him (excluding Kobes).

You can easily make the argument Kyrie has the best shoe game today.

Kyrie is a popular player and athletes paid to wear Nikes have worn his shoes a lot.



I don't know what point you're even trying to make, I think the line is trash. Feel free to think differently. There's nothing special, unique or interesting about his signature shoes.

I'm sure they perform well enough, but NBA players by and large aren't wearing retail pairs anyway.

100% is quite a ways from 0% though

nikka I’m sure he’s got to pick some color ways that they went out of they way to please him. Some stuff required clearances and probably had to give % of the money to other people that have no involvement with the shoe. The one time they give him no control he flips out. This is just who kyrie is.

Do you even have any idea what Nike had to go through to get this spongebob shyt cleared for him?? Who knows if they took a loss on this but they still did it to appease him. You honestly think Nike wanted to do this shyt?? Hell no this is all Kyrie.

Kyrie is a top 5 Nike guy I highly doubt they would not come to him unless he told them not too. And when/if they did he probably ghosted them to be on his woke shyt

 

[The War Report]

I bought Kyrie 6s a size up and them shyts is tight ass hell. Snug ass sneaker.

 

[Kang Deezy]

I’m Sure he been cashing them checks tho

 

[El Bombi]

Iverson was a lot more important to Reebok than Kyrie is to Nike though, in relative terms.

This doesn't mean anything

Until recently, players would have to approve the design of their signature shoes before they even go into production.

This sound like some weird Kyrie shyt that he decided to not get involved in the making of his shoes but get mad when they come out trash.

 

[DonRe]

The speculation are strong in here. Damn.

ive always like kyries. Never copped but the early ones had a dope aesthetic.

nike trash for seemingly not involving him.

 

[steph_harden]

Damn Lebron again getting preferential treatment over Kyrie on the same team again

That nikka bout to dip again

 

[MrRDU]

fukk Nike

I'm riding with Kyrie all day every day

It's funny how he get so much hate for doing & saying whatever the hell he wants. You prefer him shut up & dribble

 

[desjardins]

I mean if creative control was that important why not get it in the contract. If that provision ain't there then why say something like this, even if you absolutely hate the shoes. I'm thinking of all them wack ass Team Jordan shoes . I'm sure Westbrook, CP3, Melo all hated them jawns but ultimately it's just an endorsement and people are sophisticated enough to realize he wasn't in the Chinese sweatshop designing the shyt

 

[Brolic]

the 11s have the least amount of ankle support…

the 9s and 10s before and everything like 13 and up have pretty high ankle cushioning/support

they were probably trying to push that “mid ankle cut” wave onto bron like basically all the other athletes do now..and he was probably like “nah I need high tops”

He’s played in LeBron 9 lows before. I heard the 11s were trash because they were just uncomfortable

 

[Bigblackted4]

Just talked about this while Kyrie has had decent shoes most of what Nike does with signature lines nowadays are garbage

 

[MrRDU]

Kyrie is a top 5 Nike guy I highly doubt they would not come to him unless he told them not too. And when/if they did he probably ghosted them to be on his woke shyt

 

[Pure Water]

All basketball shoes nowadays look like shyt.
