ANTA KAI 1: The Sneaker Kyrie Wanted

[@RafaelEmilioRPK]

From the first time I saw this shoes i said “It wasn’t Nike, it was kyrie” Pure 🔥

[@kenrickwilliams2032]

I need these 🔥

[@deadeyedan1521]

Yeah, Nike would rather get rid of someone for talking stupid and keep someone that did stupid (Ja) and repeated the same mistake+ get rid of PG( what did he do besides sell a lot of good shoes? Smh

[@_JellyDonut_]

I'm no fan of Nike but to be fair it looks like this shoes kind of just ripped off the Nike version

[@adesoladada]

This shoe is giving Black Panther vibes. Which I think is well executed.

[@IssaCastle]

I thought the same. Spot on

[@rocky8838]

WakANTA forever!

[@adesoladada]

​@@rocky8838😂

[@Anitamaxwyynn]

very true i thought the exact same the moment i saw the box

[@cldwry]

the black colourway should be called the black panther colourway (actually its just all black)

[@mathewmcfool]

Kids, peep game. You show Mom the $210 Jordans first [that's the setup] after she says no you say, "You can SAVE $85 by buying the KA1s Mom!" As a kid, this actually worked for me once and I got the AF1s I wanted 😇

[@flashachops]

This some real strategy thanks ima defo use this 🙏

[@cheaplaces5050]

Ky: I want freedom of expression. Anta: Say less. Love theseeeeeeee

[@rickychan3146]

Nike must be fuming to see how well Kai is doing rn with Anta! Exited for more colorways!

[@meljay337]

That's a beautiful shoe fr. The price point is elite, super affordable for what I think is a great shoe.

[@MrRashad8869]

These are one of Kyries best designs by far. Anta and Kyrie did an amazing job

[@lopsy80]

shoe looks good, can't wait to see more colors

[@taelew]

They definitely reminiscent of the Nike Kyrie line-up. I think Anta did a great job capturing the shape of Uncle Drew’s foot. Kyrie’s personality and design intelligence shines through immensely in the new Anta KAI 1. I think these joints are fuego imo! 🫡

[@stevencooper5970]

I like them a lot. I haven't gotten on a court in a while, but these look like a great hooping shoe. Dope vid. Keep em coming! 💯

[@Ruudgi]

It'd be cool if Anta lets you customize the writings on the straps in the kyrie alfabet to your own nickname. These look nice since I can't hardly remember Klay's Anta shoes🤣

[@kustoo]

That would be kinda sick.

[@Dipset415]

I got the kT3 4’s and 7 🔥🔥so are wade shoes🤙🏿

[@Ruudgi]

@@Dipset415 I had to watch a yt video of all Anta KT releases and yea I kinda liked the KT6, 8 and Splash 3.0 but I've never seen his shoes in an actual brick and mortar store before. Anta needs to be 'ouchea a lot more in the sneakers stores so that buyers can get a feel for their sneakers.

[@wellyforpm]

I only remember the discoball colorway tho can't remember the model lol

[@jasont9468]

10:32 10:32 ​@kustoo I can't leave a comment I have to go to an already existing thread

[@LarryLetterz]

Those are fire, next we need an all black pair

[@jayalz_]

Kyrie & Anta! yall are killing the game w these OMG 🔥

[@Vizion-jp8zj]

I love Jacque’s unboxing. As far as the Kyrie’s, I’m really in shock. Can’t believe how great they look. 🔥

[@kustoo]

I think everyone feels that way, myself included.

[@njY2K]

I missed shoe reviews like these, Jacques! Always awesome indeed!

[@kustoo]

Yeah. It’s been a while. Definitely need to do it more often.

[@louiegboi]

Not a fan of kyrie shoes but this is a game changer for me. Well executed and i like the vibe in those shoes.

[@markoi.83]

Love these! Anta deserves a chance! And for only 125!!! Nike would sell something like this extra $50...

[@redtaipei]

Irony is u’ll be paying that extra $50 resale as good luck getting them retail😂

[@Ronald-t5h]

Sneaker of the Year

[@LonglifeCreativity]

Need an all black one with 3m hits🤞🏿 these is nice tho.

[@Pray4Me.]

💯👹

[@ThisIsJayEveryday]

I like that it still looks like a Kyrie. Good job, Anta 👍🏾

[@BIGDOXX]

These are actually super fire. I’m coppin

[@imarula]

1:45 the value being placed on a box is insane but this is the type of ish ppl say that gets free shoes then make money from videos of free shoes; which i use to buy some more shoes too

[@williamphillips3035]

After seeing this, I'm really intrigued if there will be any collaborative apparel and leisure pieces.

[@9thfookie]

Freedom for Life!!! Luv'em KYRIE 🔥🔥🔥

[@vincentthomas-jq2px]

Great video , definitely looking forward to buying these and hooping in them and for sure giving Black Panther vibes all in all it’s a win win for me 10/10

[@deadeyedan1521]

Good luck getting a pair without paying over $200 resale, the drop was a joke, submitted my payment within the first minute and still didn't get them

[@doch9399]

Looks great. I’m looking forward to the other colorways. I’ve been stalking this company since he signed. I have a few Shockwave Pros. I would say that fit like a Kyrie. Hopefully the apparel makes it stateside as well. Nice win for Anta and Kyrie.

[@Sneakerheadgame]

Great review bro I will get these Thursday at extra butter nyc release event 🔥🔥🔥 need these sign $125 great price point for everyone.

[@junior112271]

They look beautifull, also the box, and for the price uffff 🔥

[@Mjay95498]

Love the break down🔥🔥

[@lastone87]

These look great and will try to go for them. I wonder how long until we see a pair with tassels, I’ll totally ball in those if given the chance.

[@frankcastle8836]

excited to see the black version of this. its dope!

[@ThatboiWaterz]

Bruh got the best signature sneaker on the market again and I'm here for it 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@BackyrdBully]

The strap is so 80's New York. I like it.

[@pgarcia23ksk11]

Got the old school rap battle mic! Love it!!

[@luispadronalcala8155]

love these new kai era

[@Crswigg]

Great break down! Shoes are fire as well.

[@Derrick-i7f]

Buying when they drop✊🏾

[@dmbondboys]

Straight 🔥

[@rellmulaa]

Jacques with another Banga

[@jeebeeauxy4L]

FIRST!! Been waiting for this Kustoo! ❤️🤞🏽

[@kustoo]

I need to get back to the unboxing a. It’s been a minute.

[@jeebeeauxy4L]

@@kustoo I really miss watching you drumming on the box damn it reminds me of the good ol days before the COVID situation.

[@TyLerMamba24]

Kyrie 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@LoLifeIsForever-hl2nm]

Love the Star Trak hoodie...

[@ninochristianlobitana5112]

Looks Amazing 😍🔥

[@CappaTheGreat]

Hopefully, I hope I can get a chance to cop. These look nice! I'll probably will get and 11.5 based on what Jacques said

[@muaythaiforever7893]

I really love, and appreciate, the design but being older…I don’t think I could pull that color way off. I wish they came in kids, my son would really like those! I’m hoping his future designs will be more accessible. But hey, I’m a sneakerhead and will probably still buy them! 😆

[@billy92william]

It’s a win, especially since it seems like it have more cushion in the heel then his predecessor. This the first Anta shoe I actually want to hoop in.

[@shinrasenpai33]

I NEED THIS NOW!

[@DryIce85]

I’m *Impressed* 😮‍💨🪶👁️✊🏽

[@cuso511]

These are 🔥🔥🔥 I’m hoping to snag a pair to rock casually !

[@macworld.cantero]

Very well designed

[@theexclusiveedition]

Slade felt the Holy Ghost on this one lol

[@pauls6448]

I can't wait to get a pair on a less loud colorway

[@darryl1981]

They look pretty good. Waiting to see other colorways to see if I’ll pull the trigger on buying a pair

[@AJRAOfficial]

I love these i tried to see if they are available to get sent to London , UK and it's not available yet 😢

[@ronaldcrumptonjr.3478]

I really like the quality. As i have with kyrie's of the past. Just want to see how it looks in a different color.

[@kustoo]

I imagine they will have a ton of colors this year. At $125, it really is the sneaker of the moment.

[@jrtate1123]

These are 🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@kellytutstone2927]

Yea it has a lot going on with the color patterns. Buy on foot would love to see how they feel and do with a few games of hooping

[@PointWithin]

I need these in a black colorway too

[@BurtoniousPrime]

Id rock these casually. Theyre unique and funky!

[@gramz23]

A dope show that many people won’t be able to get. The brand is just so hard to just pick up. Price point doesn’t really matter because the general consumer like parents buying for their kids won’t be able to purchase.

[@dfrnt_hues]

Already RSVP’ed to Extra Butter. I just need to figure out if I’m wearing these casually or ballin in them.

[@mac2518]

Great vid, I am also an 11-11.5, if I’m playing basketball in them what size should I go with?

[@CreasedHeat]

These honestly look incredible. I think most people are bias towards the big companies because of marketing, but the asian brands have been killing them with modern basketball shoes for years.

[@jordankvos]

So sad, I really want that shoes, but there is no ANTA store in Indonesia.

[@davidparsons4314]

hey man great video. I'm wide feet (2E) and I have size 11 WOW10s and they are super tight (blisters on both small toes). I also wear size 11.5 AJ38. Do you think the 11 is the way to go on Kai 1s? I'm afraid to get size 12 incase it's too big.

[@patmanna3836]

Dope af. I need a pair

[@kustoo]

People are really loving these.

[@Antronab15]

I'm 50/50 I just really hate useless straps they just feel in the way last time I had straps on shoes were the Kyrie 2 and they felt a lil more functional because they were up around the tongue but I like the thought put in the shoe overall

[@mrwnking]

That color is 🔥

[@reggiefurlow1]

Happy he priced them reasonably even though the sellers gonna mess it up

[@francesco2286]

You only get once chance to launch a product, and they did a great job with this one.

[@DonavinDavis25]

Would you say there better then the shock wave 5s?

[@atlasapollo8028]

So would you recommend TTS or .5 up? You said they were kind of tight/snug on the side? How was the length? Was it short? whats your sizing suggestion

[@kustoo]

The length was fine. I probably had a quarter of an inch at the toe. I am an 11-11 1/2. I would stay TTS. Only reason I would go up is if you like really thick socks. I had on a normal pair and I would have been fine.

[@semv957]

what’s better: kai 1, ja 1 or freak 5? I need lightweight shoes with awesome traction, good court feel and they should be pretty bouncy. How much does kai 1 weight?

[@YeahJdidthat]

No 11.5 that I would prefer since I’m a wide footer I’m a true size 11 but I like to go a half size up since I have a wide foot so would you recommend going with a size 12 or the 11

[@LovreMusik]

We NEED MORE LIKE THIS💜🖤1️⃣1️⃣

[@MiOhMai]

I want these! I’m going to have to wait until they come out in my size. 😕

[@ThatboiWaterz]

Gotta cop💯

[@mydump9530]

how's the heel-toe drop on these? i really liked playing in kyrie's nikes because of the low drop. is it the same on these?

[@cedwardharville]

Jacques I wear a US size 13 and I really want this shoe but pretty consistently Anta stops at size 12, as I've also tried to buy many of Klay Thompson's shoes in the past and was unsuccessful. Will this shoe be more consistently be available in larger sizes and if so, where is the best place to find them?!

[@Batman-216]

Are they having more release dates???

[@jeffcottrell4090]

Hope to be able to get a pair for my son

[@atSlickBoiChris]

Probably get these just for the unique design and the color

[@snapsbytoby]

My ocd kicks in when I see people who has a shoe with velcro and do not align the velcro strip…

[@devayonlett3321]

I never like those overseas off brand shoe company shoes (li ning ect) but these are fire.

[@AllenStaagata]

Crazy 💜🖤🔥

[@mobbindavid7359]

Yes damn good job and great price

[@NotKurt7]

They look great! Hopefully they make a 12.5 bc it sounds like 12 might be a little tight

[@kustoo]

They are going 8-15

[@thembamekwa2311]

big DUB 🔥🔥

[@carmelomoney8386]

‼️dat shoe HARD ‼️

[@Magicstockton]

Hopefully there’s no hype around these. I want a pair.

[@norvieYT]

The first colorway always sell out. More CW for sure since its china brand

[@heartbreakzel]

The build reminds me of the kd 7

[@Dnice9737]

Where can I get that Star Trak hoodie?

[@302cho7]

Tuff 🌊🌊🌊

[@anthonya.herrera7157]

Does anyone know what time they’ll drop on the Anta site

[@sidney2552]

Very nice-looking shoe

[@drosims7993]

Yea ima wait for a different color way…the purple isnt doing it for me. Going to be very hard for me to put on know I’ll have nothing to match them.

[@thebasketballchannel1340]

People wait more for Kyrie's new signature shoes more than LeBron's 40k career points hahaha! 😆😆😆

[@actuallyColemyRs]

What are your exact foot measurements, because I am between 11 and 12 and the anta size chart does not include 11.5

[@actuallyColemyRs]

What size would you recommend?

[@junerudio7478]

how to buy this shoes?

[@saiiiii8683]

These look sicK!!!!!
