Paul Rodriguez was among the world-class athletes providing testimonials for the #KobeSystem, but the Kobe VII is so specifically tuned for basketball performance that P-Rod’s going to have to stick to his guns when it comes time for grinding and griptape. The Nike SB P-Rod V will fit that bill perfectly, a simple no-nonsense Matte Silver and Anthracite design that becomes the latest in a long line of sneakers cast in the white/grey/black spectrum for maximum matchability. These are coming up as part of the Nike SB March 2012 collection, but it’s worth checking your local retailer as Flatspot has already started selling their stock.
