Well I can bet President Obama either saw this coming way before we did since he did visit the Nike HQ’s a while back or he will be completely blown away at the fact the upcoming Nike Kobe 10 Elite ‘Commander‘ is inspired by him. Taking its colorway inspiration from the Commander-In-Chief’s Honolulu high school, Punahou School which was a private college preparatory school.
We all know each colorway for Kobe Bryant’s sneakers tell a specific story and this one I can say shall mean a whole lot to sneaker collectors especially those into politics, or maybe not. Either way the concept is dope and the colorway is hit.
Check out the official pictures provided by Nike Store and their release details then let us know down in the comments shall they be a DEF Cop or DEF Not.
Kobe has long looked up to the commander-in-chief, and not just because of his hoops game. This unique collection symbolizes the President’s influence on Kobe with colors inspired by his Honolulu high school. Available October 14 on Nike.com.
