This Nike Kyrie 3 was made to pay homage to Kobe Bryant and martial arts legend, Bruce Lee. Known as the "Mamba Mentality" edition, they come in a tour yellow and black color, reminiscent to the Nike Kobe V released in 2009. This ties back to when Kyrie was 17 and played in those special edition Kobe's at the Nike Extravaganza in California. The sneaker features a yellow-based upper with black and red accents, paying tribute to Lee's trademark colors. Details include: a new "Kyrobe" logo on the tongue, four red slash marks, snakeskin on the medial side, representing the "Black Mamba" which fades to a samurai textile print on the lateral side passing the torch to Kyrie and also ties back to Irving's Kyrie 3 worn on Christmas day in 2016. Their release date was September 15th, 2017 where they were available at select Nike retailers worldwide in limited quantities. Retail was $120 and they came in men's sizing only. If you're a fan of Kobe, Bruce Lee or Kyrie, this Nike Kyrie 3 is a must-have.
