Kyrie Irving’s first signature shoe with ANTA is back in the rotation with the Kai 1 “Chief Hélà Red.” It’s the model’s first release of 2026, following several Kai 3 colorways and a Kaibrid that pulled elements from all three of his signature shoes.

The “Chief Hélà Red” takes its name and inspiration from Irving’s connection to the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe. During his visit, he completed an ancestral ceremony and received the name “Little Mountain,” a personal moment behind this latest Kai 1.

Red covers most of the shoe, with a brighter shade on the textured toe and support panels over darker red knit mesh. Diamond and triangle patterns cover those panels, while red suede wraps around the collar and heel. Gold details include Kyrie’s logo on the tongue and his jersey number near the base of the laces.

The ANTA Kai 1 Chief Hélà “Red” arrives on October 24, 2026, for $135. Look for unisex sizes through ANTA and select retailers, both online and in-store.
