New colorways of Kyrie Irving’s Anta Kai 1 continue to be released into the offseason, with the latest pair paying tribute to the Dallas Mavericks guard’s hometown state of New Jersey.
This green-based Kai 1 colorway, appropriately dubbed “Garden State,” is inspired by the greenery scattered throughout the state. The majority of the upper is dressed in a jade green color scheme, with a floral-esque graphic appearing on the underlays by the forefoot. According to the brand, the jade accents “symbolize Irving’s deep connection to his roots and the natural beauty of his home state.”
Aside from the Kai 1, Anta and Irving are also expected to drop a new version of the silhouette soon along with a new Kai Tribe lifestyle shoe.
Readers will be able to cop the “Garden State” Anta Kai 1 starting on July 20 exclusively at Anta.com, and in-store at Sneaker Politics, Extra Butter, Nice Kicks, Sneaker Room, and Kicks Crew. The sneaker retails for $125.
