Kyrie Irving’s connection to the city of Boston gets stronger by the day, and with local ties to shops like Concepts, it makes for interesting storylines for Nike to play around with. In the latest episode of Complex’s Sneaker Shopping, the Celtics star guard took to the aforementioned boutique to discuss his signature shoe and his connection with his robust fanbase, all while revealing his love of Nike SB. Simultaneously rocking the upcoming Purple Lobster colorway of the CNCPTS x Nike SB Dunk saga, he expresses his excitement over the upcoming collaboration between the Cambridge shop and his new Kyrie 5, and closes it out by copping three of his personal favorites. Of course, the shop hits him with a surprise at the end, hitting him with a crisp deadstock pair of the Blue Lobster Dunks – and he definitely didn’t see that coming. See the full episode ahead and learn more about the upcoming Kyrie 5 “Ikhet” dropping on 12/26.
