Nike Kobe VIII – Yellow/Black

Some new looks are in store for Kobe Bryant – first with new coach Mike D’Antoni now running the team, and later on a new pair of kicks donning his iconic signature. We recently showed you a nice detailed gallery of all the Kobe VIII innards, revealing a LunarLon insole, a possible ‘System’ approach. and a unique tongue construction that reduces weight. A closer look at the upper reveals something like a mix of Fuse and Engineered Mesh, which we can only imagine will be even lighter and more breathable than ever. Enjoy the gallery below and stay tuned to Sneaker News for more release info and updates, and let us know in the comments what you think of the new design.
