Nike is looking back at one of Kyrie Irving's best performances with this upcoming colorway of his Kyrie 1 signature shoe.

The shoe is named the "Double Nickel" in reference to his 55-point game against the Blazers in January, and features clever references to that theme like badges on the tongue that look like actual nickels and a flip of Irving's #2 on the back that makes it look like a 5.

The shoe features a silver and white palette, with red introduced via the Swoosh and reflective detailing on the laces.

The "Double Nickel" Nike Kyrie 1 is set to release on Nov. 11 in China followed by a US drop on 11/27 with the rest of the "Opening Night" Pack. Retail is set at, $130.
