John Kim The timeline of the Wolf Kyrie Infinity basketball shoe is a slice of life that Nike would probably like to forget. Despite the shoe being highly touted by ballers, the Infinity model will always be remembered as the shoe that Wolf Kyrie Irving “trashed” on social media in a now infamous social media post.
