Kobe Bryant may have retired from the court but his heart is still in basketball footwear as the former Lakers has a new signature silhouette, the Nike Kobe A.D., coming soon.
Combining a Zoom Air unit in the heel, Lunarlon foam in the midsole and a minimal rubber outsole (with micro-tread traction), the lightweight low-profile sneaker provides responsive, flexible cushioning and maximum court feel. A breathable mesh upper with incorporated Dynamic Flywire, ensures lock down for quick changes of direction toward the basket or to cover an opponent.
“Even though I am not on the court every day, there are people around the world who are helping to keep the ‘Mamba Mentality’ alive,” says Bryant. “I have seen it in basketball, football and with everyday individuals who are working to be better and are committed to being great.”
The Nike Kobe A.D., with a suggested retail price of $160 will be available on November 22nd at www.nike.com and select retailers.
