[Update 25 Nov 2024] Official images of the Kobe Bryant x Nike Air Force 1 Low “Black” have been unveiled, while ascertaining the pair is limited to 8,000 units worldwide.

The pair is emblazoned with a debossed sheath print and adorned with a plethora of Kobe-inspired details. The heel counter features a split design showcasing both his jersey numbers, 8 and 24. A special “Mamba Forever” badge, individually numbered, adorns the insole, alluding to the hyper-exclusivity of the release.

The sneaker was first spotted on the feet of Natalia Bryant, Kobe’s daughter, during the 2024 Mamba League Invitational tournament. This limited-edition release is a testament to Kobe’s enduring legacy and Nike’s commitment to honoring his memory.

This holiday season, the iconic Nike Air Force 1 gets a special Lakers-themed tribute in honor of Kobe Bryant. Following the upcoming “White” colorway, the Kobe Bryant x Nike Air Force 1 Low “Black” continues the tribute with a fresh take on the classic silhouette.

Sleek black leather takes center stage, accented by a varsity maize Swoosh outlined in a vibrant purple. But that’s not all! The maize continues its reign on the tongue tag, heel tab, and even the solid rubber outsole. As a finishing touch, Kobe’s signature Sheath logo sits prominently on the heel.

Dropping sometime this holiday season, the Kobe Bryant x Nike Air Force 1 Low “Black” will be available at Nike stores, the SNKRS app, and other select retailers. It will retail for US$150.
