Let’s take another look at the upcoming Nike Kobe 9 Elite “What The”, which we’re now just a week from release. As usual with Nike’s “What The” releases, this model incorporates design cues from previous colorways of the Kobe 9, sporting a white base with multiple pastel colors throughout the inner panels. The outsole has received light speckles, while the tongue lining has received a collage naming previously-released Kobe 9 colorways. Originally thought to drop next Saturday, January 10, it seems this sneaker hit stores a day later, releasing on Sunday, January 11. Retail price is set at $275, with availability at Nikestore and select retailers.
If you’d like to grab a pair early, quite a few sizes are already available on eBay. Here’s a link to the listings.
