Nike Kobe 8 “Red Tail Boa”

Nike Kobe 8 “Red Tail Boa”

Red Tail Boa Nike Kobe 8

The Nike Kobe 8 “Milk Snake” has gone through a little bit of an identity crisis and changed it’s name to the Kobe 8 “Red Tail Boa” but the fear-evoking upper keeps it’s intimidating form for its July 27th release. As Kobe continues to rehab this offseason for a monumental comeback, his signature shoe has kept people busy with coveted releases from the new Kobe 8 ‘Graffiti’ option on NIKEiD to the Philippines exclusive Kobe 8 PP. The Red Tail Boa sees Kobe’s signature hit with white and black gradients in a snakeskin pattern on top of a red base. Scroll below for a better view of the newest Mamba release and be sure to be on the lookout for this pair to hit stores like Foot Action this Saturday, July 27th, but if you can’t wait see if you can find your size early on eBay.
