Nike designer Jeff Rasmussen created the Nike Zoom Kobe Trainer for Kobe, or anyone who wants to be like Kobe, to train in. This sneaker takes design cues from Nike Free to help increase flexibility and increase speed. The forefoot strap provides additional support for Kobe’s explosive cutting on and off the court. This colorway of the Zoom Kobe Trainer seems to be a more lifestyle colorway which can be used for chilling or training. These were scheduled for release this past August be we did not see them in stores so perhaps these were scrapped. We found this sample size 9 on eBay.
