Potential images of a Nike Air Force 1 LowKobe Bryant” have hit the internet.

The supposed sneaker looks to be crafted with a traditional white leather base while color blocking in the Los Angeles Lakers hues of yellow and purple land on the uppers. Branding can be found on the purple panel swoosh, embroidered Kobe ankle logo, Nike heel emblem, his #24 jersey number on the tongue tag and “Air” stamp on the midsole, while additional detailing can be seen on the perforated toebox and panel. The shoe rests on a white midsole and purple outsole, with purple laces tying the shoe together for a clean finish.

It was recently announced by Nike CEO John Donahoe that the Nike Kobe line will return on August 24 — Kobe Day 2023.

Take a look at the shoe above and stay tuned for official photos — which may differ, as the pair shown above is a mock-up — and a release date.
