Nike Zoom Kobe IV

Nike Zoom Kobe IV - #1

The fourth signature shoe in Kobe’s line is set to release in January 2009. But many Kobe enthusiasts aren’t thrilled with the Zoom Kobe IV. This shoe is low cut, rather than highs normally seen in the Nike signature shoes of franchise athletes.

When Eric Avar created this shoe, Kobe wanted a low version so that he could prevent himself from losing seconds in reaction time. The shoe uses innovative technology, Lunar Foam and Flywire, while having some Zoom Air in the forefoot to balance out the sneaker.

These kicks will be available at $120 in January. Available at Marquee Sole. Via Sneaker News.
