It’s be quite a year for the NBA’s reigning MVP Kobe Bryant. Along with the success of his signature Nike line, Kobe’s been the focal point of three exclusive SBTG customs, the Black Mamba Dunk Hi, Blue Devil Dunk Low, and Black Mamba Dunk Low, all components of the 2009 Varsity Bones Collection. Well, it doesn’t stop there; SBTG is set to release a special version of the Black Mamba Dunk Low, exclusively available at Philippines-based Crate. The updated features of the Black Mamba Dunk Low include “CRATE” and “MANILA” appliquéd onto the tongues, a metallic-finished purple swoosh, and a Crate store call-out on the shoe box. These exclusives mark the first major launch for SBTG’s customs in Philippines, and also celebrates Crate’s second-year anniversary last October. We’ll keep you updated with more info regarding this momentous collaboration, so stay tuned to Sneaker News. via Royalefam.
