Following the introduction of Nike’s new luxe silhouette last month, we now take a closer look at the Kobe X Mid EXT white/gum light brown courtesy of Sneaker Politics. The plush update sees the basketball-turned-lifestyle silhouette rendered in a clean white colorway across its leather upper complete with intricate X perforations across the side panel, toecap and around the heel counter for an unmistakable look. Additional details completing the design include eye-catching gold accents at the tongue and lacelets, while further 3D branding is present at the heel. Adding a subtle retro feel is the gum outsole, which is separated by an icy white midsole. Priced at $225 USD, the Kobe X Mid EXT is due out this Friday, May 22 at NSW retailers like Sneaker Politics.
