Kyrie 1 'Letterman' Release Date Schedule, Pics and Retail Price
Nike and Kyrie Irving take a trip down memory lane with Saturday's release of the Kyrie 1 "Letterman," the latest colorway of the popular sneaker.
As Irving's Cleveland Cavaliers fight it out with the Golden State Warriors in the NBA Finals, his latest shoe offering boasts a breezy color scheme fit for the cool spring months.
Here are the release details to know, via Nike's official website:
| Saturday, June 13 | 10 a.m. | $110 | full family sizing |
Expressions Stores provides a look at the shoe and the design's inspiration:
As one can glean from the main image, this iteration of the Kyrie 1 features the sleek logo on the tongue of the shoe, as well as on the inside.
Bathed in "Tour Yellow," "University Gold" and a splash of teal, the appealing design looks great from all angles.
Foot Locker provides multiple angles, with an eye-catching emphasis on the ridged design of the back of the shoe:
The folks at Sneaker Bar Detroit offer a closer look at three angles on Instagram, where folks can better see the back design, as well as a taste of Irving's own handwriting on the back and on the inside of the tongue:
The lone angle not covered above is the bottom of the shoe, but it's an area worth a closer look, too.
As KicksUSA captures, the bottom opts for a simple design with plenty of traction, highlighted by a unique oval emphasis on the kick's logo:

A callback to Irving's rise to superstardom, the Cavaliers point guard has a can't-miss shoe on his hands with this latest offering.
The mash of colors is not only perfect, but drops at the right time just before summer.
While the Kyrie 1 gets a lot of action these days in sneakerhead circles, it's best to clear the shelf space for another pair. The "Letterman" is a hit, and one fans can cop beginning Saturday.
