Kyrie shoes are dope and most importantly they're cheap compared to other Nike athletes.
Or could it be the devilish / illuminati designs 🤔
Thats also due to him, hes said before he wants a lower price so more people could buy them.
Nak Loves Jesus shut up 🤦🏾♂️
Bruce Rivers not to mention the sauce
Enter Sarri True dat 💯
“Every signature shoe sales are down except for Kyrie, why?”
Big reason is that it’s cheaper than the other ones.
Kapil pg’s shoe is the same price
Marcelo Hendrix and Giannis
Kyries are actually hella good on the court tho
Most kids also mold their game around kyrie too
It’s not just that he makes them comfy, but he also makes them unique and has cool collabs
He straight up just has really good shoes, every year
They all look the same:/
@@lebronjames7041 if it aint broken dont fix it xD
Them mfs trash, u must be white
@@Firstnameunknownfr whut
Lebron James
Says u Lebron
As a marketing major this is so cool to hear this stuff from kyrie
Pat W I’m about to start studying marketing in college... any tips??
Clifford Charles same
@@cliffordcharles20 Learn everything from youtube and creating a yt channel! I graduated with a marketing degree.
Clifford Charles yeah... don’t
Alejandro Becalli damn you have nothing better to do than input negative feedback smh its people like you that keeps humans from connecting with each other positively
its good to see athletes have the same mentality on and off the court
Kyrie does different themes he does SPONGE BOB he does a nightmare theme he does Kobe Tributes DIFFERENT COLOURED SHOES MAN ie Left shoe purple Right shoe yellow HENCE WHY KYRIE SHOES ARE BETTER SELLERS 😤😃
John Oxenham it’s the creative mindset
Why do they still sell? Because, like Michael before him, he actually cares about artistic input.
You mean his Illuminati input lol lets keep it a buck
@@LonghornsLegend u fear the unknown you probably think 666 is demonic 😂😂
@@nagagod8130 so u denying that Kyrie shoes all have an illuminati influence? Just because you don't understand something doesn't mean its wrong
@@nagagod8130 its documented if you just did some research instead of guessing
@@LonghornsLegend yes I'm denying it . The symbols on his shoes are spiritual meaning not demonic illuminati
If you're popular and skillful, you get a deal. Nobody trying to buy Reggie Jackson IIs.
Ritchie Perera why tho
Lmaooo imagine Beverly shoes
Popular, skillful, worship the Baphomet.
abdu o lmaooo 😂😂
@@ShukreeRashed23 just look at him now, getting all he ever wanted, Sad that he won’t be around much longer to enjoy you just wait
Kyrie and kobes shoes are in my opinion the best nike basketball shoes there are
jordans?
Don not a fan of them at all
Don Jordan’s have become more of fashion, not on court shoes.
Cool kid I disagree
100% agree with this I think Kobe 5s best balling shoe ever made
Kyrie shoes comfortable asl, nice protection around the ankle, padding is good plus it gives you like a inch of height
I twisted ankle on that shoes 10 times this month
zion got injured in ky4 too
Edgar Alvarez, Kobes. Kd’s ... need more ?
G Propho Loading definitely give an inch 😂. Especially KD’s from the very first shoes until now. Kyrie’s are lower to the ground than KD’s 😂. Only shoes that might not give that are like chucks and vans.
Razzmatazz hops skiddly doo wasn’t that in Paul George shoes?
I just bought my Kyrie 6's customized from NIKE, I can tell you that as a Basketball player I feel disappointed with shoes nowadays, they hace cool tech in them but the aesthetics are... weird to say the least, that's the reason of the high demand of retro Basketball shoes. But Kyrie's look modern, have the new tech, but also have an old school flavor in them, I'm no expert but I'm pretty sure that's why is the best selling signature shoe out there
I didn’t like all of the triangle and eyeball symbols on the shoe. I didn’t buy them for those reasons.
@@sixfiftychris good, now what are your suggestions for performace Basketball shoes, cuz' I didn't find anything that looked good and had good/new tech worth buying. I mean, KD12's are ok, but they're crazy skinny (I've wide feet) and Jordan's 34, look ok, but again, aesthetics... jus' nah.
Same
Had me in the first have, not gonna lie
QuickSilver kyrie 3, kobe 9’s (high and low), Lebron 10
are the best basketball sneakers ever!
This is pretty cool. Kyrie has a good business mind.
Kyrie is humble enough to listen. Consumers = your boss. 🥁
Kyries Spongebob shoes were huge everyone wanted a pair
mojohvncho facts. also the cereal pack.
Lee Flair facts
The Patrick ones are so cute
Looking at the video it's sad how things end up turned out between kyrie and nike
Kyrie was the best thing that ever happened to Nike imo.
Ky's really going to follow in Kobe footsteps on the business side. I pray he can get as many ships too frfr 🙏🏽
Sha'heed Dingle won’t win one cant lead like Kobe did
Jom James y’all know how hard it is to TRY to carry a team and a short guard is right...
@Jom James Kyrie's cold af foh
Cameron Clark u gotta remember this is the same thing that was said about Kobe when Shaq left 🤷🏿
I pray him and KD come back healthy and lead the nets. I want kyrie to win in this game so bad cause Kobe loved him
Q: How Nike Picks An Athlete For A Shoe?
A: They get drafted in the first round.
Unless they’re Messi and Ronaldo’s level
Recorded October 2018, but released February 2020?

Kyrie seems like a smart guy. Talks articulately
Shooters dream come on bro, you wouldn’t have said that if it was a white guy but because he’s black its special for him to talk “articulately”?
TyRaNno LeBron is one of the smartest players along with MJ and Kobe a lot of them are not just Jeremy Lin cause he asian
@TyRaNno you sound bias and racists, but see that your of asian decent from the channels you are subscribed too. Kyrie went to Duke University a ivy league college. Most basketball player's are smart the inner workings of professional basketball isn't just putting a ball into a hoop, their are descios you have to make in thar can make or break your career. you don't need a degree or go to best college's in the world to prove your intelligence, but people hold that to a standard a run with it, at tge end of the day the degree you got is just a peice of paper. It what you learn and how you apply the knowledge you ganined from college truly show's your intelligence.
@TyRaNno What does Harvard, or college in general, have to do with annunciation.. Education is important, but a lot of Black athletes leave college early to pursue their dreams.
@TyRaNno Education isn't even necessarily synonymous with college. Even before the digital era.
Stylistically, he has the best shoe in the game in my opinion. The logo and everything fits perfectly.
Not a basketball person but if I wanted to ball in basketball shoes, I’d pick these 🤷🏽♂️ (they used to hurt my ankles but they’re good now)
Kyrie's shoes sell well because they're not as expensive as the other athletes signature shoes.
I disagree
Philip Streit so what is it then kids love his shoes
Justin Hammer 💯
because he puts his artistic side into them and kids think it’s cool to wear them.
Really love his low line, takes me back to my high school days playing in Kobe 4&5
They’re super comfortable. I had to send some PGs back because they were so stiff. Every Kyrie I’ve had felt good on foot.
Moses Ulai bro it should be the other way around😂 kyries have so little cushioning compared to other shoes like pg 4s and kd 12s
Well the pg3 sole was way too hard for me. The flytrap felt better and cost half as much.
I played in Kyrie 3s and the soles felt like rocks. Actually.
@@lebronjames7780 bro you got yo own shoes
How they pick a athlete 😂😂😂😂 um you really good you want a deal lol
it’s evident that kobe lives through him🙏🏾
big guard except that Kobe is a Winner. I like Kyrie is a whiner
Prahlad NatusVincere Kunalan hater smh
Weston Mckenney do you even know what that really means?
Kyrie a really intelligent guy compared to Kendrick Perkins
Kendrick doing it for the clicks and a job. Perk's a great dude but ryan hollins and paul pierce are idiots
Kyrie isn’t smart, he talks in circles
Because Kyrie vibration is high 🧘🏾
YRN TJ yeaa if you cannot understand it will not be processed in your head so thats why its in circles but for the most part its going over your head!! Please envision having a mind of your own and stop letting mainstream media create the narratives about people you don’t know or understand
Saiyan Prince, minus the whole flat earth thing lol 😂
Kyrie and Giannis have easily the best and cheapest shoes out there
Kyrie 2s are like the best shoe ever
Kyrie’s are actually innovative & affordable and his collabs actually are with fire companies
Kyrie cares about the prices that’s why they sell so well
Max Kellerman will never be on a Forbes Stage, but he can call this young man dumb lol
Tré I can’t stand everyone saying “kYrIe iS nOt A lEaDeR”
@@slayerh8128 Probably because he hasnt proven that he can be a team leader on winning team.
@Ron Davis lol that's not a leader, it was a clutch shot by a fantastic player.
I mean Max did graduate from an Ivy League school soooo...
Kyrie is great, nice interview !
Kyrie shoes are great both on and off the court, I can wear it casually as well because it looks hella fire and comfy
my guy killa Ky! 🔥
This dude gets it. On many levels. Much respect.
I hope Kyrie brings back Nike Basketball into fashion. I understand it's a basketball performance shoe first, but early 2010s Nike Basketball???? Kobe 8s-10s, KD 4s, 6s, and 7s, Lebron 9s, 10s, 11s... they were on a streak
Not even a kyrie fan at all but kyrie got the best signature shoes out there rn
All I want are Zions!
Facts
Thanos cw!!!
I bought the Kyrie 6s from Nike id hope they finish making em soon
noah bender what color are they
All red other than midsole and laces then gold swoosh, with black iridescent, then glow in dark strap,
Just saying dosent do justice I'll post a video of me unboxing
@Ron Davis I'll post a link once it's done uploading they look clean af in my opinion ik it's a bit out there but it's what I like
ua-cam.com/video/z3K1ZpfhJbg/v-deo.html
4s and 5s were the best imo
They thought kids would go crazy for the spongebob colorways but it was mostly grown men
Love kyrie’s game and his wisdom
Mb I’m biased but Kobe’s shoes are my favorite, but second is definitely kyries
Rounded outsoles feel nice when u get shifty, feel like uncle drew himself
Nike's athlete selection process let them know that curry isn't a top priority athlete
Kyrie's vision and intent on direction propelled his shoe to excel
Kyries shoes sell well because Nike focuses more on performance than telling some stupid story. The better performing a shoe is, the more people will buy it
3:36 why did he stutter then change his question?
Vi Mos. Caught
I mean put yourself in his shoes
He probably changed his "Price Point" question because prices of Kyrie's shoes have risen since Kyrie 3. I do remember purchasing the Kyrie 3 for $110 when it was released. Then Kyrie 4 saw the first price hike at $130. One of the things Kyrie wanted was for his shoes to be affordable. But I will say that the business side makes the price point complicated. His shoes have improved over the years, as far as materials and technology used. They're more comfortable. They have better Nike Zoom compared to Kyrie 3's which felt like wearing sandals. At least from my experience.
@@thirtyacres7504 His "kyrie" line is going to only go up in price, his "flytrap" line will be the budget one.
Elann Suvat Nike has upped the prices of all their shoes. Just how it is sadly 🤷🏼♂️
I got the Kyrie V x Kyrgios vapor tour tennis shoes and fuckin LOVE them!!
I wanna see all the sells on all the top player shoes
Was the first signature sneaker I bought full price. Happened to walk into a foot locker and the Kyrie 1 was there. Knew the name and the show was pretty cool. Good price too...Got every one since and it’s my favourite line.
Im thinking why I prefer kyrie's because its lightweight and hold its grip on court if you do a crossover, its a preffered shoe by my friends and most of them played point guards but maybe not on just that position
His shoe is just better
He would make a great director of footwear. what he is speaking about changing the way of working is very forward thinking as many fw companies are behind!
Kyries shoes actually look good
People also want to wear what one of the best ball handlers in the game is wearing
We need more Kyrie as a person
Kyrie's are pretty good but the flytrap ones have horrible, brick-like cushioning.
It’s a clean shoe and it’s comfortable to hoop in
good video
I like Kyrie
Kyrie has the best basketball shoes
I love lebron but damn playing with his shoes make me feel like im wearing boots
I'm a Nike head is so to say this to say that Kyrie LeBron Jordan Kobe and KD got like the best selling shoes from their companies that they sign from like Nike even Scottie Pippen and Penny Hardaway got some of the best shoes if you're on another brand that is not Nike or Jordan brand you're pretty much not on the right level so how I even want to get my own signature signature shoe with Nike
His shoes are affordable 120$ vs 180$ end of day for hooping
Name of Kyrie Irving cut?
Kyrie’s just that guy str8 up😂
Kyrie is one smart dude
Now all u have to do is be this cool with your teammates on the floor my friend👌
PRIS lol ur soft
@@geno1525 huh? A Nicca named 'Lil' calling someone soft? I'm hard even when I'm not turned on.
Kyrie is a really really smart guy. Especially for a basketball player. Definitely a Thinker. Much like Kobe
mwccpark especially for a basketball player??? Coded language is the tool of racist trash like u
Make it so we don’t roll our ankles everytime we wear them
🤨I’ve got 4 pair of kyries...never rolled my ankle in any of them ever 🤷🏾♂️yo shoes must be too small of sum bro 😴that ain’t never been a issue with kyries shoes them bitches be hella comfortable lowkey
@@SEGWAYJayskii I roll my ankles once every 3 times i play with Kyrie 2s on, and I currently can't afford another shoe lol
His shoe is significantly cheaper than a $200 base model LeBron. Why are we pretending otherwise? His shoes probably are the best looking this season tho.
Kyries, Lebron, Jordan’s are best shoes line
Kyrie/KD/Jordan
Kyrie is going to be such a boss after retirement. I can see him own a team.
best bang for your buck for sure
EVERYONE WANTS KYRIES
Therr are many reasons the man sells shoes...
Kyrie does stuff different Kyrie 2 are the best.
Then he came out with SpongeBob version where both adults and kids can relate he's always looking to grow
So insightful.......😂😂🤣🤣😭
Who shoes he have on now ?
The shoes aren’t ugly like kds , the new kds are ugly
Longhaul Brown most basketball sneakers are ugly... their for basketball...
Good stuff
This reconfirms why he has to try to stir the media a bit, whether the result was positive or negative as a player, in order to brand himself & sell the shoe. He will NEVER play a role that has little flair and try to win a championship as he already locked in his NBA contract money & he's giving his flashiess to make the avg fan happy (not the sophisticated fans, who are minority) while promoting his shoe to maximize his earnings.
Uh-oh.. Dont Kyrie have any non disclosure agreements with Nike?
👑
Kyrie 2 battle Greys favorite shoe ever
Yessir.
It’s because Kyrie has a better shoe than a lot of people
Sounds like he works better designing a shoe than running a team.
But I guess max kellerman says he ain’t smart or bright person lmao
He’s not
He said Kyrie hasn’t shown him that he was intelligent and this was before this video dropped right ?
nike gives a shoe to an atheletes so they can cover pg forwards and big men
This vid is timelapse 🔥 Kyrie killa
Not true at all one the sponsored athlete becomes a free agent other companies can offer him a big deal like KD/HARDEN/CURRY/ KAWHI
Kd has offer 200 Million 10 years by under armor Nike matched
Harden was offer 200 M 10 years by adidas Nike didn’t match
Curry was offered 4 Million food Two years (2014) Nike didn’t match
If companies do not match the deal they will sign with the bigger number
Guys like
PG
KYRIE
DLO
Aren’t nearly as valuable if they fall to Nike
They check the box scores
kyrie 5 has like twice more colorways as 4 so i guess thats why its going up
What hoodie is this?
That’s why Nike is top dog in the shoe game.. then adidas, funny thing Skechers is up there as well
This Illuminati talk is dumb af, it's not going to make us buy his shoe. We buy the cause they're affordable and durable asl on the court. They're also stylish
I think the fact the kyries don’t increase in price every year, and remain at an affordable price is the reason why they sell well. KDs arnt what they use to be, kds stoppped looking nice after like kd 6 or 7
By passing by Stephen Curry
Kyrie bhm 2 the best by far!
Kyries shoes have gone up compared to others because guys like Bron and KD sell way more shoes than kyrie. So even though his numbers has increased, Bron and Kd are still selling more shoes
