Nike Kobe A.D. Mid Honesty

This Nike Kobe A.D. was one of five colorways that dropped alongside one another as a part of the 'Mamba Mentality' Pack. Known as the 'Honesty' edition, this pair draws inspiration from Kobe's dependability and trust in himself, recognizing his strengths as well as his weaknesses. The sneaker comes decked out in all-blue fury, featuring a blue upper, midsole, and translucent outsole, with black accents on the collar liner and paint splatter detailing. Technical details include more cushioning, which consumers have asked for, as well as a responsive 14mm Zoom Air bag. Their release date was August 24th, 2017, a nod to both of Bryant’s uniform numbers (8 & 24) where they retailed for $160. One of the tenets of Kobe Bryant’s 'Mamba Mentality' is the ability to acknowledge difficult personal truths in order to grow. Designed with the psychology of color in mind, the 'Honesty' iteration of the Kobe A.D. honors the acceptance of imperfection. Additional features include a lightweight multilayer upper, Lunarlon foam midsoles with Zoom Air, and specially engineered tread.
