Having a partnership with the NBA is definitely beneficial for adidas, because it allows them the ability to create sneakers like this Crazy 8 with official Lakers team logos. Recalling the Crazy 8’s original signature athlete Kobe Bryant, this Lakers edition of the model is outfitted in gold canvas with references to the Black Mamba in snakeskin across the upper and midsole. Look closely and you’ll also see Los Angeles’ famous palm trees detailing the heel taping and tongue loop. A must have for any hardcore Lakers or Kobe fan, you can pick this “Lakers Snakeskin” Crazy 8 up now at select adidas retailers like Oneness.
