A Closer Look at the Nike Kobe X Elite "Elevate"

Nike Basketball’s 2015 Elite series features shoes from three of the game’s most heralded players, focusing in on the performance aspect of the KD 7, the Kobe X, and the LeBron 12. Each shoe comes in three separate colorways, and here we get a closer look at the “Elevate” version of the Kobe X Elite. This is the first Flyknit basketball shoe constructed with recycled polyester yarn, and utilizes Free, Flyknit, and Zoom Air technologies to create one substantial and stylish package. The full “Elevate” collection featuring all three styles is due to drop tomorrow, May 15 at Nike retailers and online.
