Product Description
Nike chose to part ways with Kyrie Irving in late 2022 after releasing eight signature sneakers for him throughout his NBA career. But before the brand cut ties with Irving, it released the Nike Kyrie 8 Infinity1 World 1 People Sweet Beet Volt, which was one of the boldest Kyrie sneakers ever unveiled.
This Kyrie 8 featured a chaotic kaleidoscope of colors that made it difficult to see which one was used for the foundation of its upper. There were pops of blue, burgundy, pink, and even neon green scattered throughout the sneaker. All these colors continued down onto the outsole, and the infinity symbol even made an appearance on the outsole alongside Irving's signature.
From a practical standpoint, this wild mixture of colors shouldn't have worked, but our experts loved how they all managed to complement one another for the greater good of the shoe. It made one of the final Nike Kyries a success and highlighted what the Kyrie 8 could have become. The Nike Kyrie 8 Infinity1 World 1 People Sweet Beet Volt was released on August 1, 2022, and retailed for $130.
