They might not have the same kind of street-ready wearability as more traditional materials like leather, suede and mesh, but the newfangled synthetics that make Nike Basketball’s newest kicks so light also allows for the kind of precision coloring that you simply cannot master on those other fabrics. Creating a two-tone worn effect like the one present on the Nike Zoom Kobe VI ‘Lakers Gradient’ would require some kind of weathering process that’d add to the production cost and create some variance between each pair. But the ZK6 suffers no such irregularity, its Flywire-infused TPU snake scale upper looking as good as it has during this entire product cycle thanks to the skillful blending of Los Angeles Lakers colors.
