ANTA KAI Speed 3 "Black Warrior" 112641121-4 - Low Basketball Shoe Unisex Black
ANTA KAI Speed 3 "Black Warrior" 112641121-4 — Kyrie Irving Signature Speed Takedown
The ANTA KAI Speed 3 is the third generation of Kyrie Irving's signature "Speed" takedown line, specifically engineered for quick, shifty basketball players. Model number 112641121 denotes this low-top performance model, while the suffix -4 identifies the Black Warrior colorway variant — an all-black stealth execution built for players who let their game do the talking. Built around the concept of court feel and rapid multi-directional transitions, it is a streamlined, agile on-court weapon.
Low-Profile Ride
Embracing the DNA of the Speed line, the KAI Speed 3 features a low-to-the-ground setup utilizing upgraded A-SHOCK PRO cushioning, prioritizing lightning-fast responsiveness and close court connection over heavy plushness.
Aggressive Traction
The rubber outsole is molded with a dense, multidirectional chevron pattern. The tread layout changes direction precisely at high-wear pivot and braking zones, maximizing grip for hard cuts and deceleration.
Robust Support Geometry
Designed to handle explosive side-to-side movements, the KAI Speed 3 boasts a wide forefoot base, extended midsole sidewall wraps, a heavily structured heel counter, and an exposed TPU midfoot support shank for torsional rigidity.
Performance Upper
The upper merges a lightweight, breathable textile mesh base with fused synthetic panels and overlays at high-stress areas to secure the foot without adding bulk.
Sizing & Fit Advice
The KAI Speed 3 features a slightly more rounded and adaptive forefoot shape compared to previous generations, avoiding a heavily pointed toe box. True to size is recommended for most players. If your optimal footbed internal length is around 290mm (e.g., a perfect 1-to-1 fit in US 11 for 361° Dynafish), a US 11.5 (290mm) is highly recommended in ANTA basketball shoes to ensure proper lockdown without compressing the big toe during hard, sudden stops on court.
