Kyrie Irving’s Masked Era Inspires the Latest KAI 3

ANTA is bringing the KAI 3 “White Phantom” to the U.S. on October 31, giving Kyrie Irving’s latest signature model a Halloween release tied to one of the most memorable stretches of his career.

The colorway takes inspiration from Irving’s masked run with Boston in 2017, when he played through the team’s 16-game winning streak while wearing a protective face mask. That moment serves as the backdrop for the “White Phantom,” which dresses the KAI 3 almost entirely in white.

A clean white upper is paired with metallic silver branding throughout, giving the shoe a sharper finish without moving away from the monochromatic theme. The look keeps the focus on the KAI 3’s sculpted build while tying back to the mask-inspired concept.

The Halloween release date gives the story an obvious connection, but the execution stays relatively understated, leaning on the white-and-silver palette rather than heavier themed graphics.

The ANTA KAI 3 “White Phantom” releases in the U.S. on October 31, 2026 for $150 through ANTA.com and ANTA Beverly Hills.
