Taking cues from the wild designs of the pop art world, Nike Basketball presents an “Influence” edition of Kobe Bryant‘s signature Kobe 9 Elite. Decked out in a Sport Turquoise/White-Volt-Total Orange colorway across its Flyknit upper, the high-top Eric Avar design sees a predominately turquoise upper contrasted with an orange medial side as Volt makes up the shoe’s unique collar. Finished with a grey rubber outsole, carbon fiber support and Lunarlon cushioning, the Kobe 9 Elite “Influence” is set to hit Nike Basketball retailers on Saturday, June 21 for $225 USD.
