Compared to the previous pictures we showed for this upcoming Nike Kobe 9 Mid EXT, I really like them. Sporting the snakeskin look as never before seen, well aside from the ‘Christmas’ Kobe 8 SS, these aren’t as bad as people who first saw them expressed. To get a more in depth look into this upcoming Kobe 9, Nike Store has made it a priority to provided some detailed pictures as well as some release details which should help you guys decide if you should cop a pair when they drop.
Let us know your thoughts down in the comments. Will there be a DEF Cop put in motion or a DEF Not?
Following a groundbreaking introduction, utilizing a Flyknit construction for the first time on-court, the Kobe 9 has been remade for everyday wear.
Built like the Black Mamba himself – stealthy yet aggressive – the Kobe 9 Mid Ext. brings the popular performance model to the streets. The design embodies Kobe Bryant’s alter-ago with a subtle, snakeskin-embossed leather upper. Paired with chrome accents along the midsole, reflective detailing brings a stand-out touch to an otherwise understated design. Tying the design together, the gum rubber outsole makes it ideal for off-court trekking, with a look as lethal as the Mamba’s venomous strike.
The Kobe 9 Mid EXT drops August 23 on nike.com/sportswear and select Nike Sportswear retailers worldwide.
