The nickname sticks around for once as releasing this Saturday is the Nike Kobe 10 ‘Pain‘. As we all figured it had to do with Kobe playing through an injury but for which one was unknown, I figured his achilles but obviously that isn’t the case.
The folks at Nike Store have provided the story line behind this new colorway as well as their official pictures and release details.
Check out the information below and let us know down in the comments will these be a DEF Cop or DEF Not.
The masked mamba’s first game came Kobe’s senior year after he broke his nose diving for a ball. The next night, after going 4-for-14 wearing a mask, Kobe threw it in the trash at halftime and went off. Through the pain, he finished with 39 points in an overtime win that would take his team to state. The Kobe X ‘Pain’ is available July 9 on Nike.com (10am EDT/7am PDT).
