Nike Kobe X (4th Of July)

UPDATE: Saturday is that day! 'Murica!

The final piece of Nike's '4th Of July' pack arrives in the form of the Kobe X. It is by far the most visually stimulating of the bunch, thanks to a wavy red, white and blue graphic adorning the upper, reflective silver Swoosh and a pack of stars resting on the toe. Hyperfused panelling adds to the intrepid visuals, while a gum outsole adds the finishing touches. It's a tough choice between the LBJ12, the new KD8 or the Kyrie 1, but our money is still with the Kobe X – Mamba till the day we drop! Check all four dropping June 27 on Nike.com and select Swoosh accounts.
