Nike Hyperdunk x Zoom Kobe IV – Hybrid – Away Colors

Before Kobe Bryant officially unveiled is 4th signature sneaker – the Nike Zoom Kobe IV – he was on the campaign trail for the shoe that introduced Nike Basketball’s Flywire technology to the world: the Nike Hyperdunk.  While he was gearing up to debut the Zoom Kobe IV, Nike Basketball hooked him up with a preview in the form of a Hyperdunk with a ZKIV sole.  In December, we showed you some pictures of the white, home colorway of this basketball shoe hybrid, save now we have some detailed shots of the shoe in the Lakers’ away colors.

The shoe looks identical to usual Hyperdunk Kobe wore during away games at the beginning of the season, featuring mostly black with accents of yellow Flywire, a purple Swoosh and a yellow Kobe symbol on the tongue.   Subtly replacing the usual Hyperdunk sole is the sole from the Zoom Kobe IV, which by now you could probably spot from a mile away.  Maybe this was a way for Kobe to test out the Zoom Air technology on his new sole before he rocked the ZKIV on court.  While it is not likely these will make it out to retail shelves, you can check out all the pictures after the jump.  via HK-Kicks
