Nike Basketball has officially unveiled the Nike Zoom Kobe VII Elite in the Home and Away colorways, sitting side-by-side above. While Sneaker News first broke the news on both the Home and Away versions of the Nike Zoom Kobe VII Elite (and the LeBron 9 Elite Home, the LeBron 9 Elite Away, the Hyperdunk 2011 Elite Home…you get the point), this detailed look gives us a great view of what makes this shoe an ‘Elite’ model. Just like the LeBron 9 Elite and Hyperdunk 2011 Elite, the Nike Zoom Kobe VII Elite is given a structural boost with carbon fiber heel counters and mid-foot shank plates and displayed so elegantly with the golden details on the Swoosh, Kobe shozoku logo, and Flywire embedded beneath the newly-designed snakeskin upper. Arriving at Nike Basketball retailers this April 28th and debuting on Kobe Bryant’s feet in the 2012 NBA Playoffs, the Nike Zoom Kobe VII Elite will break records as the highest priced and highest performing Kobe shoe in history. Now that you’ve seen the entire Elite Collection, let us know which is your favorite of the bunch, and stick with Sneaker News as we will update you on all information relevant to the Elite Series.
