The Kyrie Irving AF1 That Dropped with Socks
Kicking It founder Dr. Greg Grovey spotlights a rare and surprising AF1 from none other than Kyrie Irving — complete with a sock pack and clear paneling.
You know about Kyrie’s signature Nike hoop shoes. But did you know the NBA star once had his own Air Force 1 too?
This week on Air Force Friday, Dr. Greg Grovey takes us back to a rare release that flew under the radar — a Kyrie Irving Air Force 1 Low that dropped with transparent side panels and a pack-in pair of Nike Elite socks to match. Whether you saw them or not, this drop was a moment for both sneaker collectors and NBA fans.
