Inspired by the popular TV show, the Friends x Kyrie 5 basketball sneakers pay homage to the star guard's love for the sitcom. The design features vibrant colors on the outsole and a black mesh upper that mirrors the Friends logo. To further highlight the theme, the shoes incorporate lightweight Flyknit cords in orange, teal, and yellow. Additionally, the left and right profiles showcase 'FRIENDS' and 'KYRIE' tags in the signature Friends font. These sneakers not only boast a stylish look but also retain the performance elements of the original Kyrie 5 design, including the Air Zoom Turbo unit with an articulated forefoot for excellent agility. Combining premier basketball performance with popular culture references, these sneakers were released on May 1, 2019, offering a unique blend of style and functionality.
