Boston Celtics All-Star point guard Kyrie Irving will release a “Friends”-inspired shoe line.

According to #SneakerScouts' official Twitter account, Nike has dubbed Irving's new shoe as “Kyrie 5 Friends.” A pair costs $130. It has a release date of May 16.

For The Win's Michelle Martinelli describes Irving's new shoe line in more detail.

And now Irving has a shoe celebrating ‘Friends' coming out this week.

The new Kyrie 5 colorway is mostly black with white soles, but the iconic shades of red, yellow, and turquoise from the ‘Friends' logo are featured with the laces on top and on the bottom.

‘Kyrie' is written on the outside heel in a similar style to the show's logo, which also appears on the insoles while Irving's own logo and signature are on the tongue.

Martinelli says the first Nike “Friends”-inspired shoe came out in 1995 – footwear which celebrated the show's second season.
