Concepts collabs with Asia Irving on the Nike Kyrie 7 EP “Horus” releasing May 7th retailing for $150. Veteran Kyrie silhouette designer Ben Nethongkome links up with fashion designer, model Asia Irving to create this stunning reimagining of her brother’s 7th sneaker model.
Although given no official colorway to date, mesh detailing appears mostly in a Teal Blue hue. Likewise, this color dresses the throat, lace loop, eyelets, lower eyestays, and heel stabilizers. We see this shade again in small squares across the White padded collar and sockliner.
Meanwhile, Baby Blue coats the preset laces, thinly padded tongue topped with Rose Golden Concepts branding on the right and Kyrie Irving branding on the left, respectively. However, a secondary set of Fire Red laces call attention to the uppermost aglets.
More Golden accents appear on the quarter panels. Laterally, we find a Nike Swoosh gorgeously redesigned to look like an outstretched wing. Medially, an Eye of Horus salutes the “All-Seeing-Eye” motif Kyrie is well-known for.
Other Egyptian hieroglyphs such as the ankh representing life or the actual Illuminati pyramid adorn the forefoot. Subsequently, the Bright Orange 360-degree, computer-generated traction pattern fans out intricately across the outsole.
