Kyrie Irving Absolutely Trashes His New Kyrie 8 NIKE Sneakers

Not only is Kyrie Irving a difficult player during the season, he also is very ornery during the offseason. Kyrie’s latest issue is with Nike’s latest Kyrie shoes, the Kyrie 8’s. Kyrie made a point to let everyone know he’s not a fan, and he had zero input on the new kicks.

“I have nothing to do with the design or marketing of the upcoming Kyrie 8, imo these are trash. I have absolutely nothing to do with them. Nike plans to release it without my okay regardless of what I say. So I apologize in advance to all of my sneaker heads and the true supporters of the KAI11 Brand. “

Clearly Kyrie is not a fan of authority.

Nike is going to do what Nike wants, and Kyrie probably isn’t the easiest guy to collaborate with.

That being said, they don’t look great.
