What's On My Shoe Rack: Kobe 9 Elite

Eddie Samad's shoe rack features the Kobe 9 Elite Hightops, the first pair of basketball shoes that got the sneaker world in a mad craze by integrating the infamous "Flyknit" technology.


The Kobe 9 Elite is the first basketball shoe that features the infamous “Flyknit” technology, which has got the sneaker world in a mad craze.

Part of the Nike “Gold Collection”, the Kobe 9 Elite Gold sports a white upper with grey, black and gold details throughout – detailed with the mango flywire, the shoe takes on a neutral look, with a dominant white build. A gold swoosh, black laces, and grey outsole completes the sneaker, which might be the cleanest and best colourway to hit the iconic silhouette thus far.
