Special edition Kyrie 3’s are being released by Nike, called ‘Mamba Mentality.’ We know about Kyrie’s deep admiration of Kobe and how he sees the retired Lakers star as a mentor. Kyrie and Kobe also share a connection to the late martial artist, actor and philosopher Bruce Lee. The duo are inspired by Lee’s famous words, “Always be yourself. Express yourself. Have faith in yourself.” If you know anything about Kyrie and Kobe this makes perfect sense.
The Mamba Mentality will be available on September 15th and feature a snakeskin-inspired medial side fading to Samurai on the lateral side. Plus a fusing together of the Kobe and Kyrie logos.
