Anta Klay Thompson KT11 – Christmas Snowflake Blue is positioned around the theme “Christmas Battleground.” The ice-blue palette mirrors Klay Thompson’s signature “three-point rain”: cool, pinpoint and lethal—perfectly echoing his identity as a marksman.
Anta Klay Thompson KT11 – Christmas Snowflake Blue
Upper A pale-blue gradient knit is frosted with micro-embossed snowflakes and a silver-veil finish, turning the shoe into a winter court. The heel counter revives the eagle-wing feather texture of the first KT1, marrying heritage with today’s tech and letting nostalgia speak in the details.
Cultural code The quarter panel is tattooed with Klay’s résumé—“Four Rings”, his life motto “Hellagrateful”, and a silhouette of his bulldog Rocco—so every stride is autographed.
Cushioning & performance
Full-length Nitro Speed: 80 %+ lab-tested energy return, soft enough for big bodies yet lively for quick triggers; impact is dispersed on landings without killing court feel.
Custom carbon shank: an asymmetrical plate stiffens the mid-foot against torsion, keeping the platform stable through hard plants and Klay-style curl-to-catch shots.
Fit & lockdown
Reinforced weave: forefoot width 95.53 mm (US 9/42.5) welcomes wide feet; seven lace rows—five heat-welded, two metal eyelets—cinch the mid-foot so the foot never slides on kick-outs.
Breathability vs. support: a large-mesh tongue vents heat, while the dual-peak collar and vertical ribs brace the ankle against rollover.
Outsole Liquid-rubber with classic herringbone and flex grooves. Widths: 113.60 mm forefoot / 89.07 mm heel (US 9). Handles clean wood and dusty blacktop, though ultra-slick floors can skate a hair.
Storytelling touches
Heel: eagle feathers return alongside a “KT1” hit; a lateral TPU ribbon reads “2015-2024”, time-stamping the decade-long partnership.
Medial side: micro-text reads “Make It Rain” and “No Place Like Home”, shorthand for Klay’s shoot-anywhere ethos and Bay loyalty.
In-shoe: perforated fabric sockliner with grippy reverse dots; foam midsole cloth ups step-in comfort. Weight: 392 g (US 9, single shoe)—light enough to fly, stout enough to land.
