Kobe Bryant Introduces Nike Zoom Kobe 4 Rice High School PE
Posted by George Kiel III | Feb 3, 2009It must be nice to go to a high school that is sponsored by none other than Kobe Bryant! The past couple of days Kobe Bryant and the Lakers were in New York to take on the Knicks in which Bryant broke the record for most points scored in a game at the Madison Square Garden (61pts…see Kicks On Court). However, the day before his record-breaking night, Mr. Bryant showed up at the Foot Locker on 34th Street to lace the Rice High School basketball team with its own Nike Zoom Kobe 4 PE. Kicks On Fire was there in attendance for the event.
Inspired by the school’s colors, it contains white on the side panels and toe box, while yellow patent leather appears on the heel and toe area. Dark green is seen on the ankle area and shoelaces. The word, “Rice” is located on the ankle area in yellow writing, while Kobe’s number 24 is imprinted on the heel in green. Again, it must be nice to be sponsored by KB24!

Oh and comment number 14 watch your mouth.
Feb 3, 2009 at 7:40 pm
Oh Man I was there. I go to Rice and I’m team manager. You’re right the kicks we got that day were only a Nike Id Pair. However these are the ones that we are gonna wear in the super six next week friday. Oh and for you haters we got the sneaks with our customized name on it. I’m not lying and I Have the pics from that day to prove it. We also went to the 40/40 club to watch the superbowl with him.

How that comment is not filtered by now is unacceptable. I’m sorry nicekicks, but this site is too good to be infested with ignorant trash like (14). If you do not fix this problem I myself, and everyone should stop going to this site, because it is not right and there are plenty of websites that wont allow this.
Feb 3, 2009 at 7:18 pm
wow 14 you are a racist huh. it doesn’t even matter we as black americans are not even mad any more with small comments like yours.
Feb 3, 2009 at 6:32 pm
look at all those black african kids from africa… so many porch monkeys… but the shoes are tight
Feb 3, 2009 at 6:11 pm
The are Rice PE’s there were only 20 pairs made. The ones Kobe have is his actual pair for him. Go watch Rice play at the Nike Super 6 on 2/13 and see what’s really good!
Feb 3, 2009 at 3:51 pm
thats cool but the shoes are ugly
Feb 3, 2009 at 3:49 pm
No, but they bring them(Footlocker) a plethora of business.
Feb 3, 2009 at 3:39 pm
Wow, Nike Owns footlocker?
Feb 3, 2009 at 3:01 pm
I’ve seen some nice Adidas player exclusives too, but I guess nothing trumps Nike
Feb 3, 2009 at 2:59 pm
Rice and Christ the king have some of the best player exclusives around. These might be a Nike ID exclusive, but those Lebrons they were getting last few years weren’t. Your best bet was to hope someone put em on flight club.
Feb 3, 2009 at 2:51 pm
Fire!
Feb 3, 2009 at 2:20 pm
I CAN’T FIND THESE ON NIKE ID CAN ANYBODY HELP A BROTHER OUT AND HELP ME TROUBLESHOOT??????????
THEY HOT THOUGH!
Feb 3, 2009 at 2:08 pm
Im a Knicks fan, but Kobe owned yesterday im not hating, new yorkers can appreciate seeing good basketball…oh and those kix are looking nice!
Feb 3, 2009 at 2:07 pm
these are just a NikeID pair, anyone can make them if they want. the black colorway on the feet of the players are REAL player exclusives, at least until they release them at HOH and they just become a limited release
Feb 3, 2009 at 2:07 pm
the black and white kobes in the background are still the best colorway
Feb 3, 2009 at 2:05 pm
Like this cw better than some of Kob’s gr stuff.

The yellow and green ones are not bad.
