Nike Unveils Kobe 8 System
Hooped Up | November 30, 2012
Inspired by the Black Mamba alter ego of Kobe Bryant and the Chinese Year of the Snake in 2013. The KOBE 8 SYSTEM is the result of a close collaboration between Nike Performance Footwear Creative Director Eric Avar, his team and Kobe himself. For his latest creation, Kobe wanted a shoe that acted as an extension of his foot, mirroring his quick performance while staying lower to the ground.
