The NikeLab KOBE X Elite Low HTM was just unveiled – a byproduct of the collaboration with Fragment Design founder Hiroshi Fujiwara.
For the second consecutive year, Bryant’s signature shoe blends Nike Basketball’s newest performance technologies with a refined, HTM aesthetic. The new low-profile silhouette is available in three colorways, each of which delivers premium detailing.
The KOBE X Elite Low HTM’s hybrid cushioning system, which combines Nike Lunarlon cushioning, Nike Zoom Air and Nike Free-inspired siping, delivers a responsive ride that is soft, firm and flexible where it’s needed most. An advanced traction system on the outsole features hundreds of “nodules” that grip the court and work to provide optimal traction. The flexible midsole and outsole enables the traction system to better engage with the court when the athlete changes direction.
HTM explores new concepts in design, highlighting the latest technologies and hinting at future applications. The NikeLab KOBE X Elite Low HTM will launch exclusively at NikeLab LNZ1 Milan on April 14. It will arrive at global NikeLab locations and on nike.com/nikelab later in the summer.
