A nod to Kobe Bryant’s ‘Black Mamba’ nickname, the Kobe A.D. ‘Grey Snakeskin’ sports a snakeskin upper with webbed paneling on the ankle and tongue. The triptych Swoosh is embroidered in a spectrum of red to orange, while similarly bright hues can be found on the insole. The heel counters are detailed with unique icons that appear to outline a complex arrangement of basketball plays.
