Who else than the “Black Mamba” to honor a year 2025 under the sign of the snake? Nike will start the year with a bang by releasing a “Year of The Mamba” collection, which includes four new pairs of Kobe and also a collection of clothing, with the logo of Kobe Bryant surrounded by a snake.
As for shoes, the comma brand went heavy with two Kobe 5s in red and black with the same gold snake on the upper. For the moment, the red version “University Red” is only planned for the Chinese market. The black and gold “Eggplant” is released today in the United States at a price of $200.
The collection will be completed by a Kobe 6 “All-Star” in black and white, announced for February 13, and the return of the Kobe 9 Elite Protro “Masterpiece” in black, pink and fluorescent green.
A promotional clip paying tribute to the memory of Kobe Bryant and the “Mamba Mentality” was also broadcast to launch the “Year of The Mamba” campaign.
