How Does the Last Kyrie Shoe Perform?? Nike Kyrie 8

    In this video we go over the now-cancelled Nike Kyrie 8.
    These new Kyrie’s have a responsive cushioning setup with Air Zoom Strobel to provide decent forefoot feedback, however softness is lacking on both the midsole and the plasticky upper materials. Traction is excellent on different settings, as the rubber grips the floor very well. With the fit, I would strongly suggest going up a half size from your true size, as with most other Kyrie signature shoes. Wide footers can even go a full size up. Stability and support are about average, and decent lockdown on feet.
    Sadly this is very likely going to be the last Kyrie signature shoe, because Nike has suspended its relationship with Kyrie Irving due to recent controversy.
    Let me know your thoughts on the Kyrie 8 in the comment!

    I relate so much to that post move. You know when you expect a defender to go for a fake but instead you two end up looking at each other and you don't know how to score after that? Anyhow great review! I was kinda excited for the traction part seeing as they look extremely aggressive on these shoes.

    Aesthetically this new Kyrie 8 is my favorite, because it’s a true low top, but I heard the materials are trash, and the fit has always been weird on the Kyrie since the fourth model. I’d say my fav is the Kyrie EP Infinity from Asia. Stronger more durable rubber, more true to size fit, not so suffocatingly narrow in the forefoot. it was by far the most comfortable and best performer, in terms of finally having quality zoom cushioning in the front of the foot. Sucks that Kyrie trashed it verbally. The Infinity and then the 4

    Lots of awesome shoes unfortunately I play outdoors 😂 most of these are designed for indoors. I’m going back to playing basketball after 20yrs, now after checking which shoes to get- KD series have good reviews recently so definitely will try one. Surprised me how shoe design evolved over the decade- I remember back then thick and fat foamy hi cuts. Now it seems they’re becoming lighter in materials. I hope can still expect good protection.

    Hi Tommy, great work as usual! i just got kyrie 8 in orca colorway as well. But the blue color on the traction between the right and left shoe is different.. like the gradation is little different, but the seller says that it is authentic and like that.. is it correct? do your pair has slightly different color gradations as well? Thank you for your great reviews!

    I know this is a kyrie 8 vid but I need some advice on the KD14s. I wear 11.5 with all kyries, 11 with traes, dons, 11.5 with AJ36 (Fits very long for me tho). Should I get a size 11.5 for KD14s or do you think I can go down to an 11? I like my shoes snug, have a normal, maybe a little wide? foot. (kyrie 5 low fit perfectly at 11.5, tho they do make my arches tired)

    • @TommyLiu4
      @TommyLiu4  ปีที่แล้ว

      Hello. I’d say the Harden Vol. 6 is a slightly better shoe overall with excellent impact protection and outsole durability. Full-length Boost is amazing. But since you’re okay with the Luka’s, the Kyrie 8 should be great too, just remember to go at least a half size up if you were to get them. Both have really good performance, but if I have to pick one I’d take the Harden’s.
