Kyrie Irving Finds Unique Way To Cover Up Nike Logo

At this point, everyone is aware of all the controversy that Kyrie Irving went through at the beginning of the season. Overall, this controversy led to Irving losing a few of his endorsements. The biggest one of all included none other than Nike. Yes, that’s right, Kyrie lost his Nike deal. In the eyes of many, Irving had the best signature shoe in basketball, and now, he will no longer be releasing any. While he could sign with another company, it is clear that his time with Nike is officially over.

Yesterday, Irving was playing with some of the best players in the world at the NBA All-Star Game. This match was played in Salt Lake City, Utah, and he received quite a few boos from the crowd. However, Irving seemed very happy to be at the All-Star Game where he was selected by none other than Team LeBron. For the most part, Kyrie had a fairly quiet game. Although, the Mavericks superstar certainly turned heads thanks to his footwear choices throughout the evening.

Kyrie Covers Up

In the first and second half, Kyrie wore two different pairs of shoes. As you can see in the image above, these shoes were, indeed, Nikes. However, just like he did earlier this season, Kyrie found a new and unique way to cover up the Nike logo. With the first shoe on the left, Irving took some tassels and had them covering up the Nike insignia on the sides. Moreover, with the shoe on the right, Irving went for a graffiti and slime look that completely barred out the Nike logo. Overall, it was a very unique way of dealing with the fallout from his previous partnership.

Moving forward, it will be very interesting to see what Kyrie decides to do in the world of sneakers. There are various companies out there who are interested in working with him. However, Irving has a pattern of creating a path of destruction which would certainly force some companies to hold back. Hopefully, we get some updates soon on what Kyrie decides to do. In the meantime, stay tuned to HNHH for the latest news from the sports and sneakers worlds.
