A First Look at the Kobe X "Blackout"

Nike unveils a “Blackout” rendition to the newly released Kobe X line. Inspired by Kobe Bryant’s relentless workouts, the Kobe X “Blackout” highlights a seamless textile upper dressed in a deep purple coating as complementing black accents found on the Nike Swoosh logo, tongue, back heel and laces provide an eye-catching aesthetic. An advanced hybrid cushioning system outfits the smooth midsole as a performance traction outsole completes the basketball sneaker. Kobe Bryant signature branding adorns the top tongue while a golden “X” logo decorates the outsole heel. The Kobe X “Blackout” will be available on February 21 at select retailers worldwide and at the brand’s online store.
