The Nike Kyrie Low Gets More Zoom Air Cushioning and Releases Tomorrow

Nike Kyrie Low

First reported as the Kyrie 4 Low, the Nike Kyrie Low emphasizes comfort with a lower build and additional cushioning.

“Kyrie wanted his Low to have everything his signature game shoes have had, but retooled with an all-day play component,” said designer Benjamin Nethongkome, who created the Kyrie 4, in a statement.

While the Kyrie Low will keep many of the features from the Kyrie signature line — a curved sole unit for quick cuts, a midfoot strap, and traction that wraps up onto the midsole — the biggest change comes in the cushioning.

The Nike Kyrie Low utilizes both heel and forefoot Zoom Air units that are bottom-loaded instead of the heel-only top-loaded Zoom Air unit used in the Kyrie 4. The final change comes at the traction, which features a concentric blade pattern derived from the Kobe 10.

The Nike Kyrie Low will release tomorrow, June 29, alongside the Kyrie 4 ‘Uncle Drew’ and Kyrie 4 ‘Red Carpet’. Nike has not announced pricing information, but the Kyrie 4 retails for $120 and an early leak suggested a $115 price tag.

  1. Really excited about these. Was hoping to grab some KDs but from what I’ve heard, they have been underwhelming.

  2. Looks awesome! Been waiting for a low top version of the Kyries. Wonder how it will hold up versus Kyrie 4 in terms of court feel and stability with the tweaked cushion set up.

  3. So it is not Kyrie 4 low, but Kyrie low. Is it kind of side signature like flytrap or else? Is it like Soldier line from Lebron since the issued price nearly closed to the signature series? In my opinion Nike wants to make sales for the summer time and sure the kicks are hot for summer, hopefully the traction could last for outdoors.

  4. I really want to hold out for a different colorway, but coming off the Kyrie IV, I just have too much curiosity. If I see it in store tomorrow, I’ll probably grab on sight.

  5. These look like they will be a perfect low to ground court feel basketball shoe. Something tells me Nightwing is gonna have a hell of a time playing in these lol! They have gum bottom too… woo!

  6. I can’t wait for your review on this pair. I would like to know the details before buying.. Been checking your channel everyday for the feedback.. Definitely love the design of these monster. Please make a review soon.
