Urlfreeze News Vanessa Bryant, the widow of the late Kobe Bryant, has led the charge for the Kobe Ban energy with regularly scheduled teases at upcoming Nike Kobe footwear and exclusives. Next up in her feed of first looks is a never-before-seen Nike Kobe 5 that features an image of an x-ray imposed onto the upper of the shoe.
The skeletal graphics are likely that of Kobe’s own feet, whose appendages were often the center of study for Nike’s development of the Black Mamba’s signature shoe line. The photos revealed by Vanessa only shoe the fore-foot down to the toe, with the anatomical display in white above a dark purple upper. A shot of the bottom sole reveals either a glow-in-the-dark or a bright visibility via a black light.
Although it’s not clear if these will ever hit a retail release, there’s so much to be excited about from the Kobe Brand: the Nike Kobe 4 “Girl Dad” is expected to release on May 31st, whereas the Kobe 8 “Venice Beach” Psg M Nike Po Sn99.
