Supreme x Nike Air Force 1 High "Red": ANTA has announced official release information for the KAI 1 “Chief Hélà,” dropping via an ANTA.com exclusive launch on October 12th. Sign-ups are available here. True to the PE he sported during the NBA finals, the design is highlighted by a bevy of tassels that dip from the collar to the midsole.
Those leather run and the comprehensive brown palette are an allusion to Irving’s Native American heritage; “Hélà” was assigned to him in a Lakota naming ceremony in 2018. Men’s sizing and a $125 retail price are expected; we’ll keep you posted with any further info as it comes.
