Category Performance Ratings
8.3
Traction
Modified herringbone pattern with firm rubber. Loud bite and excellent grip on clean courts, but dust sensitive and slightly less consistent than later Kyrie models.
8.0
Cushion
Forefoot Zoom bag with firm midsole. Stiff, responsive ride with excellent court feel and limited impact protection.
8.0
Materials
Basic textile upper with a suede strap. Materials soften after break-in; quality is okay but not premium.
9.0
Support
Structured upper with solid heel counter and containment. Very supportive and stable, may feel overbuilt for some players.
9.3
Fit
True-to-length but very narrow and snug. Excellent lockdown with minimal dead space; not ideal for wide feet.
50%
Outdoor
Thick, fairly hard rubber outsole. Durable for outdoor play and holds up well on rough courts for a while.
small
large
Sizing
Runs true to size in length. Wide-foot players should consider a half size up for comfort.
narrow
wide
Width
Runs narrow through the forefoot. Best for narrow to regular widths; wide feet will feel constricted.

The traction wasn’t deal breaker bad, but it definitely made me appreciate what I experienced in the Kyrie 2, 3, and 4.

While the cushion isn’t mind blowing or spectacular, it’s good enough.
