Kobe Bryant’s past and present intertwine on the Nike Kobe X ‘Silk’, available now at the retailers listed below.
Kobe has roots dating back to living in Europe in the country of Italy, and is deeply entrenched in the Chinese marketplace where he is among the most popular basketball players. Something that connects the two continents was the Silk Road, which was famous for trading the natural fiber. Silk used to be used to make orange tapestries, which is where the colors of this sneaker draw inspiration from.
