Anta KAI 1

In this video we go over the Anta KAI 1:

As Kyrie’s first signature shoe with Anta, this makes a great purchase - but preferably NOT at over retail price… Cushion is much better than most of his previous signature shoes with Nike, featuring a full-length NitroEdge midsole. The softness and responsiveness both surpass his other shoes previously, but the court feel does not feel like a typical “Kyrie”. Traction is only slightly above average, as this outsole barely squeaks even on a clean court. I had moments where my feet were sliding a little bit, so not as good of a grip as I expected. You can go true to size in US sizing, for wide footers you might need to go half size up to offset the snug toe box and relatively short length. No major issues with the stability and support, however heel lockdown isn’t the best and this is nowhere near being a lightweight shoe. To summarize my experience with a comparison: I would personally take their Shock Wave 5 Pro over the KAI 1.
