A number of previews of the upcoming Kyrie Irving Air Force 1 were previously released to the delight of shoe fanatics.
In a report by Kicks On Fire, the Kyrie Irving colorway of the Nike Air Force 1 will be available on November 22, Saturday.
In the same KicksOnFire.com report, the shoes were most likely inspired by Duke University, Irving's alma mater, where he spent only one college year before moving on to the NBA. The Nike Air Force 1 Low CMFT features 3M grey leather upper, see-through plastic panels on the toe box and sides and blue leather accents. The leather upper is predominantly wolf grey. The Swoosh is blue as well as the outsole. The shoelaces and midsole are white and there is a white Kyrie Irving logo that is stitched on the heel portion of the sneaker. The nylon tongue is also grey and features the classic Nike tag.
People will immediately notice the Hoyas theme upon viewing the shoe. The pair basically shows the same colors as the official uniform of the Duke Blue Devils.
According to Sole Collector, the Kyrie Irving Air Force 1 is actually part of the Nike Air Force 1 Low CMFT Signature "Kyrie Irving" Pack, which consists of two pairs. The first pair features a "Cavs" colorway with the university red, tour yellow and black tones. The "Duke" colorway is the second pair in the pack. The "Cavs" colorway features clear plastic side and toe panels, red shoelaces, a tour yellow Swoosh and an icy outsole.
The Nike Air Force 1 low is generally for casual use, featuring tough leather upper and padded ankle collar that provides both durability and a comfortable fit, based on a report by Foot Locker. Many users report the sneakers being true to size. The shoes also feature a full-length Phylon midsole and an Air-Sole unit on the heel to provide good cushioning and extra shock absorption. The solid rubber outsole is also tough and provides great traction. The look and construction of the Air Force 1 made it a classic favorite among sneakerheads through the years.
In a report by Sneaker News, the Nike Air Force 1 Low "Kyrie Irving" will only be available in limited pairs. Both the "Cavs" and "Duke" colorways will be out on November 22 and will retail at $150. The shoes will be available on Nike.com, Footlocker.com and select Foot Locker, Crooked Tongues and Nike outlets.
