'Uncle Drew' Nike Kyrie 1s and More Imagined by Dead Dilly

Do these Nike Kyrie 1 creations top the retail pairs to release so far?

by Brendan Dunne

The Nike Kyrie 1 is still a young shoe, and at just a couple of releases in, it hasn't had too much time to devote to the story telling route that's been so popular for Nike Basketball.

Helping the sneaker out is Dead Dilly, who put himself in the driver's seat for the shoe with these Photoshop renderings. The above "Uncle Drew" version even fooled some people into thinking that it was an actual Nike release. Elsewhere Dilly looks to Irving's Australian origins, his current Cleveland home, his facemask, and more for inspiration. Do these pairs top what Nike has done so far with Kyrie's first signature model? The rest of Dead Dilly's Nike Kyrie 1 renderings can be found here.
