First Look at the ANTA KAI 2 Speed

Introducing the ANTA KAI 2 Speed, the sleek and dynamic second installment in Kyrie Irving’s KAI line, designed to embody speed even when standing still. Collaboratively crafted with Dallas Stokes, this model features a streamlined and agile profile, showcasing a low-cut silhouette that sits close to the ground. The shoe is anchored by Irving’s signature split “K11” logo prominently displayed on both the tongue and heel.

The upper is constructed from breathable mesh, intricately woven with contrasting overlays and layered accents. Dynamic arrow motifs along the sides enhance its forward-driven aesthetic, emphasizing a sense of motion. Inside, a lightweight chassis paired with a secure lacing system ensures a snug and responsive fit, making the KAI 2 Speed equally versatile on the streets and the basketball court.

 

Beneath your feet, a responsive midsole provides energetic rebound for quick cuts and agile maneuvers, while the grippy rubber outsole features a herringbone traction pattern, ensuring reliable grip whether on hardwood or pavement. The silhouette makes its debut in a striking “White/Purple” colorway, with three additional vibrant options set to follow.
