- Nike, Kyrie Irving, and Nickelodeon have teamed up for a limited-edition collection of “SpongeBob Squarepants” sneakers and apparel.
- The collection includes five sneakers, one for each of the main characters, including SpongeBob, Patrick, Squidward, Mr. Krabs, and Sandy – and other apparel like hoodies, T-shirts, socks, and backpacks.
- The Nike Kyrie x SpongeBob Squarepants sneaker collection releases on Saturday, August 10, at 10 a.m. ET. However, some of the apparel is available now, but it’s selling out fast.
If you don’t know who SpongeBob Squarepants is, you’ve probably been living under a rock for the past 20 years – and I’m not talking about Patrick Star’s house. As one of the most popular cartoons in history, “SpongeBob Squarepants” has an immense fanbase, and star NBA champion Kyrie Irving is among them.
To celebrate his love for the porous and yellow sponge, Nike teamed up with him and Nickelodeon to release a SpongeBob SquarePants-themed collection of sneakers, apparel, and accessories.
The sneaker collection includes SpongeBob Squarepants, Patrick Star, and Squidward Tentacles Nike Kyrie 5s and Sandy Cheeks and Mr. Krabs Nike Kyrie 2 Lows. Both the SpongeBob and Patrick-themed sneakers will be available in all sizes from men’s to women’s to toddlers, while the rest of the sneakers are only available in men’s sizes (though some small enough to overlap with women’s sizing).
Additionally, the collection includes hoodies, T-shirts, kids' backpacks, and even crew socks that are identical to SpongeBob's blue and red striped pair.
The sneaker collection is set to launch on Saturday, August 10 at 10 a.m. ET and some of the apparel is available now. Whether you're going for sneakers, apparel, or both, you'll want to shop as soon as possible because everything is likely to sell out.
