The Nike Kobe 9 Elite is a sneaker oozing with detail. The multifaceted design is a shining example of breathable Nike’s dedication to innovation-one born out of Kobe Bryant’s hands on approach to the design process and Eric Avar’s passion for performance footwear. Ahead of the shoe’s launch this weekend, the breathable Nike Basketball team got together with those two to touch on nine different design details-each of which is introduced via an insight from Kobe and explained via Avar’s execution.

Eric Avar: “We created a thin web outsole less than 3 Blue thick, combined with a responsive Lunarlon insert.“
Performance result: This combination puts the foot in close contact with the court surface, allowing agile cuts, quick response and tremendous court feel.
Kobe insight #2: I’m looking for a high-top that feels like a low-top.
Eric Avar: “Let’s integrate lightweight ankle support with a Flyknit collar that is barely noticeable.”
Performance result: Allows a natural Tee of motion, proprioception and an intuitive fit with the lightweight feel of a low-top. The collar is high, but there are zero distractions or restrictions.

Eric Avar: “We’ll incorporate nine red sutures stitched up the back of the shoe.”
Performance result: Toughness. These sutures represent Bryant’s commitment to recover from a torn Achilles.

Eric Avar: “Create a design that acts as a second skin and locks in the foot.”
Performance result: A natural feel of the upper, combined with sole that “moves with you,” allows basketball movements that mimic the footwork you see in a boxing ring.

Eric Avar: “Flyknit, Flywire, Lunarlon and carbon fiber are outstanding for performance.”
Performance result: The combination of high-performance materials are lightweight, responsive, strong and durable. For a player like Bryant who runs more than four miles in the average game, shedding weight without compromising strength makes a significant impact.

Eric Avar: “A quilted tongue and padded inner-sleeve will provide a great feel, with aero mesh in the inner sleeve for comfort and breathability.”
Performance result: In tandem with the Flyknit, the quilted tongue and inner bootie provide a comfortable, glove-like fit.

Eric Avar: “Evolve the Chaos colorway and feature four distinct shades in the Flyknit’s four threads: red, purple, green and black. The Chaos colorway began with the Kobe IV in 2008 as a tribute to Kobe’s intrigue with the joker – let’s parlay that into the ‘Masterpiece’ colorway.”
Performance result: Distinction on the court. Absolutely no pair of the Masterpiece colorway are the same, they are all unique – like snowflakes. The Flyknit creation process weaves a one-of-a-kind upper so that no shoe is the same; the color blend is different on each shoe.

Eric Avar: “An evolved herringbone traction pattern that mimics the foot’s natural pressure mapping – what nature intended.”
Performance result: With an outsole traction pattern that provides maximum grip, no slipping and sliding on the court.

Eric Avar: “Let’s include the Kobe code.”
Performance result: Small details matter, both in basketball and design. The Kobe code is featured on each shoe, both on the lateral (outside) and medial (inside) sides of the midsole. Code on lateral side translates to: ‘Masterpiece.’ Code on medial side translates to ‘Veni, vidi, vici,’ an inspirational Latin phrase that translates to “I came, I saw, I conquered.”
