According to Brendan Dunne, Nike CEO, John Donahoe, plans to "relaunch the Kobe Brand" with Kobe Day on August 24th (8/24). The date is perfect as it comprises both jersey numbers worn by the LA Lakers legend during his career.
We've known for a few months that the releases would hit full swing now that Nike and the Bryant Estate agreed to renewed terms, but we have only seen the Nike Kobe Protro 4 "Mambacita" thus far. Rumors of the Kobe 8 dropping in "Radiant Emerald" and "Court Purple" have bounced around for a while. Nike has confirmed the Kobe Nike Air Huarache PE.
That's all the details we have for now, but rest assured, "Kobe Day," we will have all the info you need as soon as it becomes available. We'll have a complete drop list, retail sites, and prices as soon as possible, so stay tuned to our Twitter and Instagram for the latest info.
