KICKS CREW Has Kyrie Irving's Anta Basketball Shoes
One of the biggest sneaker free agents in many years is officially off the market. Kyrie Irving has signed a footwear and apparel deal with the Chinese brand ANTA. Last month, FanNation Kicks broke the news, but we now have more details after Irving's announcement.
The Dallas Mavericks point guard inked a five-year contract that includes a signature sneaker line and makes Irving the Chief Creative Officer of ANTA Basketball. Irving has worn the ANTA Shock Wave 5 this summer, and that will likely be his go-to hoop shoe until his signature line launches.
Most fans will have trouble finding Irving's sneakers in stores and online. Luckily for online shoppers, KICKS CREW has the widest selection of ANTA Shock Wave 5 shoes. Fans can shop the ANTA selection on the KICKS CREW website and learn more about the shoes below.

ANTA
Most athletes and fans in North America do not know much about ANTA or its products. But the Chinese brand represents several NBA athletes and has solid technology in its performance basketball shoes.
The ANTA Shock Wave 5 is a low-cut model with a high-strength yarn woven upper. Athletes' feet will feel snug and secure inside the shoe thanks to its reinforced PU material. The combination of materials makes for an impressive display of craftsmanship.
Nitrogen technology is utilized in both the insole and full-length midsole, delivering responsiveness and cushioning. Lastly, the outer TPU support plate, forefoot TPU acceleration plate, arch TPU independent stabilizer, arch carbon fiber stabilizer plate, and upturned rubber outsole all work in unison for improved midsole stability.
Irving has made it through the roughest stretch of his professional career and has been rewarded with a new NBA contract and sneaker deal. Now that they have handled their business, the future is bright for Irving and ANTA.
