In addition to the Spongebob and Patrick pairs, fellow friend and character Squidward will also be getting his own colorway of the Nike Kyrie 5. Squidward Tentacles is a full-time lover of the finer things in life and a part-time cashier at the Krusty Krab who can’t stand his neighbors, SpongeBob SquarePants and Patrick Star. The mint green upper is contrasted by hits of purple and teal on the branding and laces. A bronze midsole, blue/purple rubber outsole, and a graphic of Squidward on the insoles complete the look.
Look for the Nike Kyrie 5 “Squidward” to release on August 10th at select retailers and Nike.com. The retail price tag is set at $130 USD.
