Nike Kobe 9 Elite has three new colorways, set for a March release. The INSPIRATION (March 1), embodies Kobe’s connection with Los Angeles and his affiliation with the colors purple and gold ever since his 1996 rookie season; The PERSPECTIVE (March 8), inspired by Picasso’s Blue Period and the artist’s versatility that transcended beyond paintings and onto his sculptures; The DETAIL (March 22), Kobe’s game at times presents itself as art with much attention to detail.

All three Nike KOBE 9 Elite colorways maintain the same groundbreaking features including Flyknit, Flywire and Lunarlon.
