Honoring Kobe Bryant’s legacy, the Air Force 1 Low Kobe “Court Purple” drapes the classic AF1 in a snakeskin-textured purple upper—melding high fashion, athlete tribute, and streetwear in one bold statement. Every detail nods to Mamba mentality, from embossed textures to jersey nods.
Design & Materials
The Nike AF1 Low Kobe “Court Purple” features an all-purple faux snakeskin upper with tonal laces and midsoles for a unified, clean appearance. The Sheath logo appears on the tongue and heel, while subtle “8” and “24” embroidery on the heel tabs mark Kobe's numbers. The dubraes include “Mamba” and “Forever” text, reinforcing the commemorative tone. All this rides on the timeless AF1 cup sole silhouette.
Comfort & Performance
Under the premium aesthetic lies standard AF1 comfort: leather-lined interior, padded collar, and a durable rubber outsole for everyday wear. It’s built to look luxe without sacrificing the solid structure the AF1 is known for.
Release Info
Releasing on October 1st 2025, the Kobe Bryant x Nike Air Force 1 Low “Court Purple” (IB0018-500) is expected to retail for $130 USD/130€.
