Yeah, Nike would rather get rid of someone for talking stupid and keep someone that did stupid (Ja) and repeated the same mistake+ get rid of PG( what did he do besides sell a lot of good shoes? Smh
Kids, peep game. You show Mom the $210 Jordans first [that's the setup] after she says no you say, "You can SAVE $85 by buying the KA1s Mom!" As a kid, this actually worked for me once and I got the AF1s I wanted 😇
They definitely reminiscent of the Nike Kyrie line-up. I think Anta did a great job capturing the shape of Uncle Drew’s foot. Kyrie’s personality and design intelligence shines through immensely in the new Anta KAI 1. I think these joints are fuego imo! 🫡
It'd be cool if Anta lets you customize the writings on the straps in the kyrie alfabet to your own nickname. These look nice since I can't hardly remember Klay's Anta shoes🤣
@@Dipset415 I had to watch a yt video of all Anta KT releases and yea I kinda liked the KT6, 8 and Splash 3.0 but I've never seen his shoes in an actual brick and mortar store before. Anta needs to be 'ouchea a lot more in the sneakers stores so that buyers can get a feel for their sneakers.
Great video , definitely looking forward to buying these and hooping in them and for sure giving Black Panther vibes all in all it’s a win win for me 10/10
Looks great. I’m looking forward to the other colorways. I’ve been stalking this company since he signed. I have a few Shockwave Pros. I would say that fit like a Kyrie. Hopefully the apparel makes it stateside as well. Nice win for Anta and Kyrie.
1:45 the value being placed on a box is insane but this is the type of ish ppl say that gets free shoes then make money from videos of free shoes; which i use to buy some more shoes too
I really love, and appreciate, the design but being older…I don’t think I could pull that color way off. I wish they came in kids, my son would really like those! I’m hoping his future designs will be more accessible. But hey, I’m a sneakerhead and will probably still buy them! 😆
These honestly look incredible. I think most people are bias towards the big companies because of marketing, but the asian brands have been killing them with modern basketball shoes for years.
The length was fine. I probably had a quarter of an inch at the toe. I am an 11-11 1/2. I would stay TTS. Only reason I would go up is if you like really thick socks. I had on a normal pair and I would have been fine.
what’s better: kai 1, ja 1 or freak 5? I need lightweight shoes with awesome traction, good court feel and they should be pretty bouncy. How much does kai 1 weight?
No 11.5 that I would prefer since I’m a wide footer I’m a true size 11 but I like to go a half size up since I have a wide foot so would you recommend going with a size 12 or the 11
Jacques I wear a US size 13 and I really want this shoe but pretty consistently Anta stops at size 12, as I've also tried to buy many of Klay Thompson's shoes in the past and was unsuccessful. Will this shoe be more consistently be available in larger sizes and if so, where is the best place to find them?!
hey man great video. I'm wide feet (2E) and I have size 11 WOW10s and they are super tight (blisters on both small toes). I also wear size 11.5 AJ38. Do you think the 11 is the way to go on Kai 1s? I'm afraid to get size 12 incase it's too big.
A dope show that many people won’t be able to get. The brand is just so hard to just pick up. Price point doesn’t really matter because the general consumer like parents buying for their kids won’t be able to purchase.
I'm 50/50 I just really hate useless straps they just feel in the way last time I had straps on shoes were the Kyrie 2 and they felt a lil more functional because they were up around the tongue but I like the thought put in the shoe overall
Sole midsole should’ve been different color. Not feelin that part. That pink is too much for me. I hope they drop some different colors I want to try them in the court.
From the first time I saw this shoes i said “It wasn’t Nike, it was kyrie”
Pure 🔥
I need these 🔥
Yeah, Nike would rather get rid of someone for talking stupid and keep someone that did stupid (Ja) and repeated the same mistake+ get rid of PG( what did he do besides sell a lot of good shoes? Smh
I'm no fan of Nike but to be fair it looks like this shoes kind of just ripped off the Nike version
This shoe is giving Black Panther vibes. Which I think is well executed.
I thought the same. Spot on
WakANTA forever!
@@rocky8838😂
very true i thought the exact same the moment i saw the box
the black colourway should be called the black panther colourway (actually its just all black)
Kids, peep game. You show Mom the $210 Jordans first [that's the setup] after she says no you say, "You can SAVE $85 by buying the KA1s Mom!" As a kid, this actually worked for me once and I got the AF1s I wanted 😇
This some real strategy thanks ima defo use this 🙏
Ky: I want freedom of expression.
Anta: Say less.
Love theseeeeeeee
Nike must be fuming to see how well Kai is doing rn with Anta! Exited for more colorways!
That's a beautiful shoe fr. The price point is elite, super affordable for what I think is a great shoe.
These are one of Kyries best designs by far. Anta and Kyrie did an amazing job
They definitely reminiscent of the Nike Kyrie line-up. I think Anta did a great job capturing the shape of Uncle Drew’s foot. Kyrie’s personality and design intelligence shines through immensely in the new Anta KAI 1. I think these joints are fuego imo! 🫡
shoe looks good, can't wait to see more colors
I like them a lot. I haven't gotten on a court in a while, but these look like a great hooping shoe. Dope vid. Keep em coming! 💯
It'd be cool if Anta lets you customize the writings on the straps in the kyrie alfabet to your own nickname. These look nice since I can't hardly remember Klay's Anta shoes🤣
That would be kinda sick.
I got the kT3 4’s and 7 🔥🔥so are wade shoes🤙🏿

I only remember the discoball colorway tho can't remember the model lol
10:32 10:32 @kustoo I can't leave a comment I have to go to an already existing thread
I love Jacque’s unboxing. As far as the Kyrie’s, I’m really in shock. Can’t believe how great they look. 🔥
I think everyone feels that way, myself included.
Kyrie & Anta! yall are killing the game w these OMG 🔥
Those are fire, next we need an all black pair
Love these! Anta deserves a chance! And for only 125!!! Nike would sell something like this extra $50...
Irony is u’ll be paying that extra $50 resale as good luck getting them retail😂
I missed shoe reviews like these, Jacques! Always awesome indeed!
Yeah. It’s been a while. Definitely need to do it more often.
Not a fan of kyrie shoes but this is a game changer for me. Well executed and i like the vibe in those shoes.
Sneaker of the Year
I like that it still looks like a Kyrie. Good job, Anta 👍🏾
Need an all black one with 3m hits🤞🏿 these is nice tho.
💯👹
Great video , definitely looking forward to buying these and hooping in them and for sure giving Black Panther vibes all in all it’s a win win for me 10/10
Good luck getting a pair without paying over $200 resale, the drop was a joke, submitted my payment within the first minute and still didn't get them
These are actually super fire. I’m coppin
Freedom for Life!!! Luv'em KYRIE 🔥🔥🔥
After seeing this, I'm really intrigued if there will be any collaborative apparel and leisure pieces.
Looks great. I’m looking forward to the other colorways. I’ve been stalking this company since he signed. I have a few Shockwave Pros. I would say that fit like a Kyrie. Hopefully the apparel makes it stateside as well. Nice win for Anta and Kyrie.
Great review bro I will get these Thursday at extra butter nyc release event 🔥🔥🔥 need these sign $125 great price point for everyone.
Bruh got the best signature sneaker on the market again and I'm here for it 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
1:45 the value being placed on a box is insane but this is the type of ish ppl say that gets free shoes then make money from videos of free shoes; which i use to buy some more shoes too
They look beautifull, also the box, and for the price uffff 🔥
Love the break down🔥🔥
excited to see the black version of this. its dope!
love these new kai era
I really love, and appreciate, the design but being older…I don’t think I could pull that color way off. I wish they came in kids, my son would really like those! I’m hoping his future designs will be more accessible. But hey, I’m a sneakerhead and will probably still buy them! 😆
FIRST!! Been waiting for this Kustoo! ❤️🤞🏽
I need to get back to the unboxing a. It’s been a minute.
@@kustoo I really miss watching you drumming on the box damn it reminds me of the good ol days before the COVID situation.
Great break down! Shoes are fire as well.
The strap is so 80's New York. I like it.
Buying when they drop✊🏾
Would you say there better then the shock wave 5s?
Got the old school rap battle mic! Love it!!
Hopefully, I hope I can get a chance to cop. These look nice! I'll probably will get and 11.5 based on what Jacques said
Kyrie 🔥🔥🔥🔥
These honestly look incredible. I think most people are bias towards the big companies because of marketing, but the asian brands have been killing them with modern basketball shoes for years.
Looks Amazing 😍🔥
Straight 🔥
Jacques with another Banga
Great vid, I am also an 11-11.5, if I’m playing basketball in them what size should I go with?
So would you recommend TTS or .5 up? You said they were kind of tight/snug on the side? How was the length? Was it short? whats your sizing suggestion
The length was fine. I probably had a quarter of an inch at the toe. I am an 11-11 1/2. I would stay TTS. Only reason I would go up is if you like really thick socks. I had on a normal pair and I would have been fine.
I’m *Impressed* 😮💨🪶👁️✊🏽
I really like the quality. As i have with kyrie's of the past. Just want to see how it looks in a different color.
I imagine they will have a ton of colors this year. At $125, it really is the sneaker of the moment.
It’s a win, especially since it seems like it have more cushion in the heel then his predecessor. This the first Anta shoe I actually want to hoop in.
They look pretty good. Waiting to see other colorways to see if I’ll pull the trigger on buying a pair
These are 🔥🔥🔥 I’m hoping to snag a pair to rock casually !
Already RSVP’ed to Extra Butter. I just need to figure out if I’m wearing these casually or ballin in them.
what’s better: kai 1, ja 1 or freak 5? I need lightweight shoes with awesome traction, good court feel and they should be pretty bouncy. How much does kai 1 weight?
I can't wait to get a pair on a less loud colorway
No 11.5 that I would prefer since I’m a wide footer I’m a true size 11 but I like to go a half size up since I have a wide foot so would you recommend going with a size 12 or the 11

Will this shoe be more consistently be available in larger sizes and if so, where is the best place to find them?!
hey man great video. I'm wide feet (2E) and I have size 11 WOW10s and they are super tight (blisters on both small toes). I also wear size 11.5 AJ38. Do you think the 11 is the way to go on Kai 1s? I'm afraid to get size 12 incase it's too big.
I love these i tried to see if they are available to get sent to London , UK and it's not available yet 😢
Yea it has a lot going on with the color patterns. Buy on foot would love to see how they feel and do with a few games of hooping
Are they having more release dates???
how's the heel-toe drop on these? i really liked playing in kyrie's nikes because of the low drop. is it the same on these?
A dope show that many people won’t be able to get. The brand is just so hard to just pick up. Price point doesn’t really matter because the general consumer like parents buying for their kids won’t be able to purchase.
I NEED THIS NOW!
Love the Star Trak hoodie...
I'm 50/50 I just really hate useless straps they just feel in the way last time I had straps on shoes were the Kyrie 2 and they felt a lil more functional because they were up around the tongue but I like the thought put in the shoe overall
So sad, I really want that shoes, but there is no ANTA store in Indonesia.
Where can I get that Star Trak hoodie?
Very well designed
Does anyone know what time they’ll drop on the Anta site
I need these in a black colorway too
We NEED MORE LIKE THIS💜🖤1️⃣1️⃣
Id rock these casually. Theyre unique and funky!
These are 🔥🔥🔥🔥
What are your exact foot measurements, because I am between 11 and 12 and the anta size chart does not include 11.5
What size would you recommend?
You only get once chance to launch a product, and they did a great job with this one.
They look great! Hopefully they make a 12.5 bc it sounds like 12 might be a little tight
They are going 8-15
My ocd kicks in when I see people who has a shoe with velcro and do not align the velcro strip…
Slade felt the Holy Ghost on this one lol
my nike shoes is 10.5 same as anta ka1 sir?
I just have one question what is the Anta logo supposed to be
Like when people sign their names & some make a little design after doing so, the anta logo reminds me of that
Happy he priced them reasonably even though the sellers gonna mess it up
how to buy this shoes?
Dope af. I need a pair
People are really loving these.
I want these! I’m going to have to wait until they come out in my size. 😕
bro...how do i buy these in EU?
That color is 🔥
I never like those overseas off brand shoe company shoes (li ning ect) but these are fire.
Yea ima wait for a different color way…the purple isnt doing it for me. Going to be very hard for me to put on know I’ll have nothing to match them.
Gotta cop💯
Crazy 💜🖤🔥
Tuff 🌊🌊🌊
🔥
Yes damn good job and great price
Hope to be able to get a pair for my son
Probably get these just for the unique design and the color
‼️dat shoe HARD ‼️
Sole midsole should’ve been different color. Not feelin that part. That pink is too much for me. I hope they drop some different colors I want to try them in the court.
Hopefully there’s no hype around these. I want a pair.
The first colorway always sell out.
More CW for sure since its china brand
I wonder how hard it is going to be to cop
Hard af. They gone be on GOAT & Stock X for $250 after release. Smh
