SKU: 8125B111OS-3
MSRP: $125 USD
Release Date: March 23
Where to Buy: ANTA

Kyrie Irving and ANTA introduced us to the ANTA KAI 2 at the very end of February, launching the new performance sneaker in a new “Artist on Court” colorway. This new chapter for the duo is being actively explored as a “Solar Return”-themed look has just been presented by ANTA. Taking inspiration from the moment the Sun returns to its exact position at birth, this vibrant iteration of the shoe celebrates Irving’s 33rd birthday this weekend.

A black woven upper serves as the canvas of this new iteration of the ANTA KAI 2 as it hosts a variety of colors throughout its build, nodding to the interplay of daylight while symbolizing both personal growth and enlightenment. The ANTA logo has again been reimagined at the lateral midfoot with Irving’s logo present at both the tongue and heel.

For those looking to pick up a pair, the ANTA KAI 2 “Solar Return” is set to launch this weekend on Kyrie Irving’s birthday — March 23 — via ANTA and select retailers at a starting price of $125 USD.
