SOOOOOOPER underrated. I loved that shoe and loved that he trashed them before release so we could get them super cheap before the drop.

Did you try out the Anta KT3 ?kaz109 i would say they are better cushioned than any Nike kyrie, even the infinity. It’s almost like they took a Kyrie 6 and added boost in the midsole. For an Anta comparison, I was told at the SP event that the Kai 1 and the Shock Wave 5 Pro have the same cushioning, but I don’t have the Shock Wave yet so I can’t compare.

Yes they were nice. Actually the best cushioned Kyrie by far. And best fit with the EP version. How does the Anta Kai fit? TTS like a Nike or up half a size like all the Kyrie’s after the 4/5?

Guess it’s not worth trying for the GR release. Oh well, really wanted to test these out

Agree - the EP was way better. Grabbed a few off stockx for about half retail plus fees.
I would say the Kai 1 fits like the Nike 6/7/infinity.

You know, after our previous discussions, I have to finally agree with you. Not every color has to be super detailed and stitching everywhere and mismatched - let’s get a simple look and put those out for mass release. If either shoe of the next color was the pair I would be in, it the mismatched look is not in my plans.

The Dallas Mavs had a sneaker event last night and had these and the Warrior colorway available to order. Hopefully that means there will be a lot more stock this time.
