ANTA and Kyrie Irving showcased a wide range of products during Kyrie’s China tour in September. ANTA revealed new Kai 1s alongside the debut lifestyle sneakers. Included in this was an all-over vibrant pink colorway dubbed Jelly, which launched today exclusively in China, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East.
Inspired by the jelly layup, something Kyrie keeps in his repertoire, the sneaker comes entirely coated in a bright pink hue. Engineered mesh acts as the base with a slightly lighter pink shade used for TPU fused film across the upper. One noticeable change on this pair is the text along the forefoot strap, which previously used custom ancient-inspired characters to spell out Kyrie’s name. Now, regular English letters spell out Kyrie Irving. Kyrie’s Kai logo is placed on the pink TPU neoprene tongue, while this same logo is located on the lateral heel. Underfoot, the sneaker comes complete with a TPU and foam midsole containing full-length Nitro Edge foam, while the outsole below comes in a tonal pink finish.
The ANTA Kai 1 Jelly was released on October 1, 2024, and is available now exclusively in China, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East.
