As a long-time fan of basketball and Kyrie Irving’s unique style both on and off the court, I can’t help but feel a sense of pride when I see the upcoming retail release of the ANTA KAI 1 “Chief Hélà”. Being of Native American heritage myself, I find it heartwarming to see such a strong connection to our culture in the sports world. The fact that Kyrie’s Lakota name translates to “Little Mountain” only adds to the resonance for me.
Name: ANTA KAI 1 “Chief Hélà”
SKU: TBC
MSRP: $125 USD
Release Date: October 12
Where to Buy: ANTA
Almost five months have passed since Kyrie Irving guided the Dallas Mavericks to their impressive game one win over the Minnesota Timberwolves in the NBA Western Conference Finals. His stellar 30-point display was supported by the “Chief Hélà” colorway of the ANTA KAI 1, which sparked plenty of enthusiasm among fans. Exciting news for them – this limited edition sneaker will be available for purchase starting this weekend in stores.
In tribute to Irving’s Native American roots, the “Chief Hélà” sneakers bear the name derived from his Lakota title, which means “Little Mountain.” The shoes boast a stylish brown suede upper that harmoniously matches with a golden-brown sole. Distinctively, this colorway features fringe details reminiscent of moccasins around the embroidered collar. Kyrie Irving’s strong bond with our Lakota heritage is evident throughout his journey, and the ‘Chief Hélà’ shoe embodies that connection, as explained by his aunt Charlotte Mountain of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe.
If you’re interested in getting the Kyrie Irving’s ANTA KAI 1 “Chief Hélà”, they will be available for purchase starting from October 12. You can get them through ANTA or selected retailers, with a base price of $125 USD.
