Kyrie Irving probably just gave us all an accidental look at the newest upcoming Kyrie sneaker in his Nike line.
This picture, posted via Reggie Miller’s Instagram, shows Irving on the set for his upcoming Uncle Drew film in a pair of sneakers we’ve never seen before.

Nike hasn’t confirmed whether or not this is actually the sneaker, but its worth noting that Miller deleted this photo from his account last night shortly after posting it. Sure, there’s a slim chance this isn’t actually the Kyrie 4, but it’s unlikely. If we zoom in on the sneaker pictured, Irving’s signature logo seems to be at the tip of the tongue.

This sneaker also follows the same silhouettes we’re used to with Irving’s sneakers. It closely resembles the Kyrie 3 as a high top sneaker but its sole closely resembles the Kyrie 1.

Irving’s shoes are known for their simplicity in the design of the body and the sleekness of the soles, which allow him to cut on a dime on the court. They’re also one of Nike’s more wearable models off of the court, and the shoe Irving is wearing doesn’t buck that trend.
There’s no word on when the Kyrie 4 will release yet from Nike, but Irving’s shoe typically launches in December close to Christmas. We’ll receive more word on when the actual launch date for the shoe is and what it actually looks like around that time, but until then the speculation over this picture will build.
