If there was any concern for Kobe Bryant’s 40,000+ NBA minutes reducing the five-time NBA Champion’s output, the Black Mamba put those to rest with four straight games of 40 points to keep the Lakers in the Western Conference hunt. Nike Basketball will also be reminding us that Kobe’s a killer the likes of which you’d normally only see on Discovery, and the ‘Predator Pack’ has come through with its latest release inspired by arguably the fiercest animal in the ocean. The Nike Zoom Kobe VII ‘Great White Shark’ comes in a colorway Kobe won’t likely rock on the NBA hardwood, but its wavy blue/white/black design will most definitely be seen wherever sneakerheads are at the peak of their powers. They’ve already started arriving at select Asian retailers, so click through to see what’s in store and stick with Sneaker News for updates in advance of the Valentine’s Day drop here in the US. via SM
