  • Kobe Bryant’s legacy span his entire career. He signed with Adidas straight out of high school. Obviously, there are a lot of sneakers to cover but one of the most interesting parts of his sneaker legacy was his free agency season. After splitting with Adidas, Kobe was a sneaker free agent and because of his superstar status in the league, every single brand was sending him shoes. From Nike, Reebok, Jordan to even And1. In this video, we breakdown some of the dopest sneakers Kobe wore that season!

    Fun fact: Jordan actually wore a lower cut of 1s on court vs the retail pair. So when people hate on mids you can go back and find images of his shoes vs the retail one.

    Does ANYONE know what those Nike’s he wore with the black rubber strap are called? He probably just wore them for a game. I had them in high school! I think they came in black and white and like an all black with red touch colour! They looked kinda like the Nike Air Max Chosen from 2002 but with a detachable black rubber strap. Very similar patter on the leather.
    The strap said “AIR MAX” or “MAX AIR” and was just a rubber strap across the midfoot area.
    He might’ve even wore them for a cover shoot.
