One of the NBA’s elite ball-handlers, Kyrie Irving possesses a nasty crossover dribble that — in his relatively short career — has already made victims of some of the league’s top point guards. It’s no surprise, then, that Nike is paying homage to his wicked ankle-breaker with a “Crossover” rendition of the Kyrie 2. Made for the playoffs, the signature silhouette sports a hypnotic graphic pattern on the shoe’s unique strap design, along with familiar performance features in the form of a heel Zoom Air unit, herringbone rubber outsole and lightweight Hyperfuse upper.
Check out the Nike Kyrie 2 “Crossover” here, and stay tuned for a limited release on May 14th. In the meantime, look for the star guard to debut the kicks during the Cavaliers’ first round match-up with the Detroit Pistons.
