Sneaker Room x Nike Kyrie 7 « I love You Mom »

Since 2017, Nike, New Jersey City shop SNEAKER ROOM and NBA basketball player Kyrie Irving have been bringing us exclusive « I Love You Mom » pairs. The next installment is based on the Nike Kyrie 7 silhouette and pays tribute to Mother Nature.

Kyrie Irving and Suraj Kaufman, the founder of SNEAKER ROOM, share the pain of losing their respective moms too soon. To honor the memory of Elizabeth and Ellen, the two partners join forces each year to reinterpret the basketball player’s signature designs and donate the proceeds from sales to community and medical organizations such as the Jersey City Medial Center.

For this 4th opus, Suraj Kaufman explained that he wanted to take it to another level. Echoing their moms, he wanted to honor Mother Nature through these special Nike Kyrie 7s. He commented : « Kyrie, being a part of Native Americans and doing so much with Standing Rock, the tribe his mother belonged to – we were talking about mothers and how we came to : Mother Nature. Mother Earth. Let’s touch that, and not be symbolic with just a red heart, or using gold that you would give as a gift. Let’s touch the elements. »

Thus, 2 mismatched pairs are proposed to us. The first pair is yellow/green and the second orange/blue.

4 shoes, 4 representative colors : earth, water, air and fire. Each sneaker is adorned with bright colors and displays an icon illustrated on the heel, a flower or a butterfly. These Nike Kyrie 7’s come in a bold design, with a combination of contrasting color accents and subtle patterns, including hearts on the side Swoosh logo and flowers on the lace up.

The Sneaker Room x Nike Kyrie 7 « I love You Mom » duo will be released on January 20, 2022 through Suraj Kaufman’s shop, snkrroom.com. The yellow/green pair will be available in 1996 pieces and priced at 175$ each, while the orange/blue version will be even more limited : 525 pieces and 250$ per pair.
