Celebrating the world cup the only way a fan of soccer, excuse me ‘Futbol’ like Kobe Bryant would with his Nike Kobe 9 EM. Nike outdid themselves with this one. Releasing this weekend the folks at Foot Locker decided to provide us with some release details and detailed pictures for you planning to pick up a pair.
It’s widely known that Kobe Bryant has an affinity for “futbul,” or soccer as we call it here in the states. As the soccer world descends upon Brazil this month for the World Cup, it’s fitting that his latest Kobe 9 drop this weekend draws its inspiration from the wild cacophony of South American street art. The newest Kobe 9 Low features features a combination of Game Royal, white and Venom Green along with an engineered mesh texture for breathability. The array of patterns showcased on the upper mix and match to give this shoe a distinct, dynamic look. Pick up a pair starting this Thursday, June 19th at Foot Locker, House of Hoops by Foot Locker and Footlocker.com (starting at 8am EDT) for $160.
