Kyrie Irving and ANTA have unveiled a new colorway for the Kyrie Irving signature shoe, the ANTA Kai 1, called the “Garden State.” This release is a tribute to Irving’s New Jersey upbringing.

Ditching the usual vibrant color schemes, the “Garden State” features a clean and simple design dominated by a calming “Sage” jade hue. However, a closer look at the toe box reveals the heart of this design.

A translucent material showcases multiple graphic stripes radiating outwards, each adorned with a floral print. This unique detail serves as a literal interpretation of the “Garden State” nickname, rather than a typical nod to New Jersey’s colors.

Following the launch of the “Playoffs Energy” colorway, ANTA hinted at another release within the “next couple weeks,” making the “Garden State” a strong contender.
