2 Fresh Drops From Kyrie x ANTA & Salomon Serve Boss Style & Epic Comfort
Two hot sneaker drops are landing this August, and they're bringing equal parts style and story. From Kyrie Irving's heritage-inspired ANTA collab to Salomon's street-meets-trail stunner, these kicks are made to turn heads on and off the court. Kyrie Irving x ANTA Hélà Style 'Roots' Kyrie Irving and ANTA are expanding their collaboration with the return of the Hélà Style 'Roots,' now available in two new colourways, 'Ombre Blue' and 'Ombre Black.' First introduced as a China-exclusive, the sneaker blends skate-inspired styling with Irving's personal connection to heritage and spiritual identity. The low-top silhouette is crafted from breathable split cow suede leather, enhanced with detailed embroidery, moccasin-inspired fringes and vibrant laces for a touch of individuality. Functionality is built in through a durable rubber outsole that offers dependable traction and an EVA midsole that keeps the shoe lightweight and comfortable for daily wear. One of the standout design features is the sneaker's outsole, divided into four symbolic 'plates.' Each plate reflects a core aspect of Kyrie's worldview – family roots, court legacy, tribal lineage and cultural unity — turning the shoe into a piece that carries both style and storytelling. With its balance of premium materials, thoughtful symbolism and versatile design, the Hélà Style 'Roots' is equally at home on the streets, on the court or as part of a collection. It represents Irving's ongoing commitment to authenticity while offering a wearable expression of his values. The Kyrie Irving x ANTA Hélà Style 'Roots' will be available on 16th August for US$125 (~RM530) at ANTA stores, online, and select global retailers. Nike Air Max 95 QS YGO Salomon is expanding its lifestyle-meets-performance lineup with the XT-WHISPER VOID, a unisex sneaker that blends technical innovation with expressive design. Originally created for women athletes, the silhouette has evolved into a versatile staple that celebrates individuality while staying true to Salomon's trail-running DNA. Set to drop in four distinctive colourways – 'Black/Black/Silver Metallic,' 'Liberty/Astral Aura/Dynasty Green,' 'Alloy/Castlerock/Ftw Silver,' and the much-anticipated 'Vanilla Ice/Vanilla Ice/Ftw Silver' – the XT-WHISPER VOID offers something for every style personality. From sleek monochrome to vibrant, iridescent tones, each pair delivers a unique visual identity. The launch campaign features Seoul-based street style icon Cheri in a surreal, dreamlike short film inspired by the sneaker's tagline Style whispers, personality echoes. More than just footwear, the XT-WHISPER VOID is a canvas for creative self-expression and it delivers on performance too. It comes with Salomon's Sensifit™ system for a secure fit, Quicklace™ for fast adjustments, Agile Chassis™ for stability and lightweight breathable mesh for all-day comfort. The sculpted outsole provides reliable traction, making it ready for both city streets and outdoor paths. The Salomon XT-WHISPER VOID will be available starting 20th August for US$160 (~RM680) at Salomon stores, online, and select global retailers.

Mavs' Kyrie Irving hints ‘absolutely' to Kobe-inspired sneaker
The post Mavs' Kyrie Irving hints 'absolutely' to Kobe-inspired sneaker appeared first on ClutchPoints. After scoring the number one overall pick in the NBA Draft and taking future franchise cornerstone Cooper Flagg, the Dallas Mavericks are confident about their chances to compete for a title in the next ten years. However, with All-Star Kyrie Irving expected to make a return at the start of 2026, the Mavericks have a chance to win now with a stacked lineup. Advertisement Check our Sneakers news for more upcoming releases and breaking content! Recently, Irving hopped on YouTube stream to answer questions from his viewers as he does from time to time. Irving touched on what makes a great shooting guard, some of his favorite books at the moment, and answered questions regarding his signature sneaker and lifestyle lines with sponsor ANTA. © Gary A. Vasquez-Imagn Images Eventually, a viewer asked Irving if he will ever drop a Kobe Bryant-inspired shoe, to which Irving responded: 'Absolutely I'm going to drop a Kobe-inspired shoe. I obviously have to work within the lines I'm given – shoutout to Vanessa [Bryant] and the girls, I do my best to make sure I show them love, show them support.' Advertisement Irving went on, 'We all miss Kobe. You've seen a lot of art pieces from peers of mine, including myself, paying homage towards him. We miss him dearly, any time I can create something that's Kobe-inspired I'll let you guys know that.' Irving has always been active in keeping Kobe Bryant's memory alive with his sneakers, rocking a number of Mamba-inspired colorways until his split from Nike in late-2022. While we have yet to see a Kobe-inspired colorway from his new sponsors over at ANTA, it's clear as to why designers may have to jump through some hoops to keep everyone at Nike happy as well. Still, knowing Kyrie Irving's creative nature, we're sure he'll come up with an imaginative way to honor Kobe Bryant with an ANTA twist. Irving will continue serving as the brand's Chief Creative Officer while he gears up for a hopeful return to the Mavericks in 2026.

ANTA elevates PG7 technology with 'Cushion Evolution' global relay run kickoff
PG7 is the groundbreaking midsole technology launched by global sportswear brand ANTA in 2024, which set a new cushioning benchmark with a Peak Gravity (PG) value of 7.8. Peak Gravity, for anyone unfamiliar with the term, is how industry experts measure cushion performance. The lower the PG value, the better the cushioning performance. Since the start of the new year, ANTA has pushed the physical limits even further by reducing PG value to 7.6, redefining impact absorption to deliver greater cushioning, enhanced comfort, and superior stability for performance footwear. 'PG7 Cushion Evolution' Global Relay Run Hits 12 Global Cities With the release of the upgraded Travel Step 2 running shoes featuring PG7 midsole technology, ANTA launched the global relay run 'PG7 CUSHION EVOLUTION,' bringing its breakthrough technology to runners in cities including Shanghai, Addis Ababa, Hanoi, Dubai, Kuala Lumpur, Bangkok, Manila, San Francisco, Chicago, Boston, New York, and Los Angeles. Advertisement Shanghai Courtesy of ANTA Boston Courtesy of ANTA Brooklyn Courtesy of ANTA Chicago Courtesy of ANTA Advertisement The relay kicked off in Shanghai on April 12, when runners witnessed two engaging and intuitive live experiments demonstrating PG7's impact-absorbing capabilities. In one demonstration, raw eggs dropped from 3 feet remained intact on PG7 material while raw eggs dropped from the same height cracked on standard EVA foam. In another, a smartphone screen wrapped in PG7 material withstood repeated blows from a 30-pound hammer. The 'PG7 Cushion Evolution' relay moved onto Chicago, San Francisco and other iconic running cities throughout April. In Boston, during the prestigious Boston Marathon, ANTA welcomed global runners to experience the PG7 cushioning and ANTA Challenge Series professional racing shoes. The momentum continued in Brooklyn, NY, where ANTA partnered with the Midnight Runners club to host an open community run, bridging cultures through a shared passion for running. Upgraded PG7 Tech & Travel Step 2: Greater Cushioning, Wider Fit, Better Grip A seemingly small drop from 7.8 to 7.6 results in a significant improvement in cushioning performance. The upgraded PG7 midsole disperses impact more efficiently and delivers even more exceptional energy return. Featuring an enhanced 'wide toe box' design, the shoes offer a more comfortable fit for a wider range of foot shapes. An improved A-Grip rubber outsole delivers better traction with a wider profile, while the asymmetric 3D-structured heel stabilizer improves landing stability through ergonomic support. Advertisement Courtesy of ANTA Wherever a runner's stride can reach, ANTA aspires to go. 'Our goal with PG7 is simple: Put the right shoe on every runner's feet,' says Samuel Tsui, CEO of ANTA Brand. Samuel Tsui Courtesy of ANTA PG7 connects runners to the ground they traverse. From its inception to its upgrade, PG7 reflects ANTA's commitment to making high-performance technology accessible to everyday runners and inspiring exploration beyond limits.
