With Christmas just a month away, Nike is gearing up for its X-Mas-themed releases, which will include Kobe Bryant’s signature sneaker as usual. For this year’s Christmas release, the Nike Kobe VIII has received a very colorful palette. Its black base uses a number of reds, yellows, and oranges, and white, all encased in a geometric snakeskin pattern. No official release date has been announced yet, but expect a Christmas weekend release (maybe Dec. 22).
