Kyrie Flytrap 2

Year Two Refines The Budget Formula

The Kyrie Flytrap 2 dropped in 2019 with a familiar formula: keep the signature line's quick-pivot outsole geometry, simplify the build, and hit a friendlier price point. Nike refined the upper materials slightly, with a cleaner mesh-and-Fuse construction, and kept a forefoot Zoom Air unit tucked into Phylon. WearTesters and HoopsGeek both noted that the traction remained the line's biggest selling point, while cushioning was workmanlike rather than plush. The narrow toebox stayed in place, which kept the Flytrap a guard-oriented shoe by feel. It moved heavy volume through team-shoe channels and became a regular at the high school level. The Kyrie Flytrap 2 cemented the line as a permanent fixture in Nike's budget basketball lineup.
