When Nike mashed the Kyrie 1, 2, and 3 together to create the Nike Kybrid S1 in 2018 it was an interesting concept. Take a trilogy of shoes and combine them into one super shoe featuring all the best parts. Now that the second trilogy of Kyrie Irving shoes is complete, Nike used the Kyrie 4, 5, and 6 to create the recently released Nike Kybrid S2.
Is it really a combination of all the best parts of Kyrie’s second trilogy of signature shoes? Chris is here to give us his first impressions and a performance preview.
