As we anticipate Kobe‘s possible takeover from Michael Jordan’s third place in the all-time NBA scoring list, we can show support through the Nike Kobe 9 EXT KRM “Challenge Red.” Seemingly inspired by the Yeezy 2 “Red October,” this iteration of the Kobe 9 sports a blend of design textures including snake skin on the heel portion, quilted stitching on the tongue and Yeezy-like ridges on the upper. The shoes come in all-red — including the laces — save for black detailing such as the lace tips and Kobe insignia found on the tongue. The stark red pair also sits on a black sole unit with reflective metallic mid-sole caps for that shine. The Nike Kobe 9 EXT KRM “Challenge Red” is set for a December 20 release for $275 USD at retailers such as Rock City Kicks.
