adidas Crazy 8
The adidas Crazy 8 is the updated name for Kobe Bryant’s first adidas signature shoe. While his time with the Three Stripes was brief, it remains an integral part of adidas Basketball strategy; the legacy of the the adidas KB8 continuing through new Crazy 8 releases. Despite the rebrand, the model holds onto the original design, centered around a wavy midsole and striped TPU upper. It’s a set of flashy design choices that perfectly reflected the playstyle of the 20 year superstar at the time of its debut. 2023 brought back the model for the first time since 2018, while this year we saw the first ever Детские парки adidas, a cut that’s expected to continue to release throughout the year.
