Sneakerheads have been treated to a wide variety of Kobe Bryant-themed releases from Nike since his Nike Basketball line officially returned last year. The Nike Kobe 9 Elite Protro just made its return as this year’s “Halo” release and is expected to drop in many more colorways, including a return of the “What The” iteration from 2015. Now, just before the release of all five Kobe 8 Protro “Team Bank” colorways, a first look at a new Kobe Bryant x Nike Air Force 1 Low has popped up.
It’s been over a week since Vanessa Bryant took to Instagram to tease a white, purple and gold rendition of the Air Force 1 Low covered in the Nike Kobe logo. A first look at another pair, one that is confirmed to be dropping this year, has since hit the net. Our initial preview of this colorway sees it also sport the aforementioned color composition of white, purple and gold. White serves as the base color as yellow accents the kicks at the Swooshes, tongue tag, heel tab and outsole. Purple enters the mix at the tongue branding and also outlines the Swooshes while the lateral heel sports the Nike Kobo logo as an embossed detail in white.
At the time of writing, neither Nike nor the Nike Basketball team have shared any info surrounding their Kobe Bryant-themed Air Force 1 Lows. Stay tuned for updates, including official imagery of the kicks, as they are currently expected to drop by the end of the year via Nike SNKRS and select retailers at a starting price of $145 USD.
