One popular piece of Kobe-trivia is this tidbit of information about Duke being a possible suitor for Kobe Bryant if he didn’t go straight to the NBA after High School. Kobe in a new Devils uniform would have been quite an interesting sight, and teaming up with future NBA-ers Roshown McLeod and Trajan Langdon (and discount on with Shane Battier and Elton Brand) might’ve produced more National Championships for Coach K. and crew. That’s all speculation, but certainly one that isn’t too far off, because Kobe Bryant won five championships on the NBA level. Here’s a look at the upcoming Varsity Royal ‘Duke’ Nike Zoom Blazer Mid ISO SB Orange Label White Navy pair that is set for a March 5th release; it features a new-on-new snake-skin upper with a translucent new outsole and a black tongue/heel-cap combo. Check out these new images after the jump and let us know what you think of the rise. via MarqueeSole.
