Heavy Metal Kobe Bryant Shoes ...are Back in Black! Go ahead, feel free to sing together with me as I shout out, and shout Nike Zoom Soldier VIIbadly, some AC/DC. The Kobe VI recently released in a black colorway for your second year uninterruptedly. Last year's Kobe V "Black Out" release, this includes a silver Swoosh as well as silver accents for the midsole, tongue, and heel cup. I gotta claim Nike Air Prestosnakeskin textured black colored upper for this shoe makes it resemble a genuine snake. Like a Black Mamba! Imagine that! The fact that a black mamba is really green in color is irreleveant. The shoe appears like a snake which is freakin' cool! As cool because the far wall of the pillow. Actually, cool enough for the member of the "Fab Five". All black Nike shoes for basketball have been must haves for sneakerheads the "Fab Five" days of the early 90's. You don't recall the Fab Five Everyone remembers the Fab Five. Jalen Rose, Chris Webber, Juwan Howard, Jimmy King, and Ray Jackson. The best recruiting class of all time attending college basketball. All five of the guys were blue chippers. These cats changed the feel of basketball. They wore black shoes and socks. They started the excitement of long, baggy shorts. These guys changed the course of basketball history. For the last 20 years black kicks have been a staple of the sneakerhead diet. This new black edition of the Kobe VI will not likely dissapoint the those hungry, old-fashioned sneakerheads.
