Out of sheer respect for the Black Mamba, we decided to give his latest shoe, the Kobe XI Elite Low, a proper in-depth review. As the last shoe Kobe will ever lace up in his professional career, we truly hope he exits the shoe game with the same amount of praise he’s been receiving from NBA fans everywhere throughout his farewell tour. And if the roman numeral XI serves as any indication, we’re in for continued sneaker greatness. Personally having worn and battle-tested nearly every signature shoe Kobe has ever released during his 20 season tenure, across adidas and Nike – from the “space boots” to the “honeycombs” to the entire zoom series – KB24 has not disappointed. Once again designed by Eric Avar, the Kobe XI Elite Low boasts a simple, yet highly technical silhoutte. We took to the courts to get a closer look. Aesthetics

Off the bat, as with all of Kobe’s signature kicks, the amount of visual detail is incredible. The initial release of the black and red “[http://haihuopifa.com/comment/html/?103208.html Discount NikeStore, 30% Off & Up , Nike. Just Do It.

The flyknit mesh material that runs along both sides of the shoe, displays a gradient-like blend seamlessly knit under the patented Nike logo. The swoosh itself is made up of 3M material in the signature Mamba snakeskin pattern, as seen throughout the Kobe VI model. As an ode to Bryant’s tragic Achilles injury, the back left heel once again features four-stitch marks, representative of the four feet of thread used in his 2013 surgery. On the corresponding back right heel is a symbol, like that of an insignia, unique to each individual silhouette. The tongue is also marked by the well-known Kobe system emblem, and the last of the symbols is a more inconspicuous visual detail, the “XI” stitch pattern in the flyknit material near the eyebrow of the laces. For me, as a whole, the Kobe XI is a clear upgrade from the Kobe X in the looks department, and for all those who want the model in their own team colors, NIKEiD is available for the sneaker as well.
