Following the recently released “Lower Merion” Kobe 11’s, Nike Basketball will be going back to the past to salute young Mamba with a “Draft Day” rendition of his 11th signature silhouette. The shoe draws inspiration from the 1996-97 NBA Draft where Bryant was originally drafted to the Charlotte Hornets, before being traded to the Los Angeles Lakers where he spent the length career. The “Draft Day” Kobe 11’s feature a cool-grey FlyKnit upper with hints of Blue Lagoon and Court Purple throughout the shoe. The kicks are also branded with the numbers ““6.26.96” on the heels that represent draft day.
The “Draft Day” rendition of the Nike Kobe 11’s will be available over at the Nike Basketball online shop and select sports footwear retailers starting April 28th. Check out detailed images of the kicks above,
