Anta KAI 2 - Sun continues the classic "Sun" theme colorway of the Irving series, featuring a gradient orange as the main visual element, symbolizing the solar energy as the spiritual totem in Kyrie Irving's heart.
Anta KAI 2 - Sun draws its design inspiration from the sun, which is the totem of power in Kyrie Irving’s heart. It symbolizes the dispelling of darkness, the illumination of the path ahead, and also carries the hope within his heart. The shoe continues the gradient orange from the previous generation and incorporates new elements of the Irving series, using the sun’s “creative power” to activate creativity on the court.
Technology Configuration
Midsole Technology: The midsole utilizes an ultra-light exoskeleton material used for the first time in Anta products, which not only reduces the weight but also enhances the toughness. The carbon fiber plate structure has also been optimized to improve torsional resistance, providing a more comfortable and professional experience for on-court performance.
Upper Design: The upper design focuses on details and incorporates Kyrie Irving’s personal elements and cultural symbols. For example, the TPU with the Irving Shield logo on the forefoot midsole symbolizes the protection and importance of family, while the oval TPU on the heel midsole is inspired by the eye pattern in Irving’s “Fardadi Hand” tattoo.
