Nike prioritized ground contact and overall support when creating the Kyrie 6 sneaker. The Jet Black variation, which was released in November 2019, features a combination of materials in its upper, incorporating a midfoot strap adorned with an all-seeing eye, a well-cushioned tongue, and a ridged heel counter. This design pays homage to Irving's spirituality and persona through the inclusion of a healer's hand motif, his personal mantra, and his jersey number, 11. The shoe's base incorporates an updated Air Zoom Turbo unit in the forefoot of the midsole and utilizes a Traction 360 grip on the curved outsole for optimal performance.
