The days of seeing Kobe Bryant hit the hardwood within the Staples Center are gone and it’s still pretty eerie. Nonetheless, Bryant’s innovative footwear will still carry on his tenacious spirit on the court. Following the recently released all-white edition of the Nike Kobe A.D., “University Red” makes its way onto its upper. To support its “University Red” colorway you’ll find that it hosts a black liner and outsole in addition to a white midsole which houses its Nike Zoom Air unit within its heel. For its finishing touches, Swoosh branding is found on each lateral and medial side in addition to Kobe Bryant branding on its tongues and heels.

The Nike Kobe A.D. “University Red” will release on January 20 for a retail price of $160 USD at select Nike Basketball retailers and nike.com.
