The Nike Zoom Kobe V is nothing less than innovative and groundbreaking to say the least. After officially unveiling Kobe’s fifth signature sneaker yesterday, Nike decided to supply us with additional information pertaining to the Kobe V’s affiliation with NikeiD.
With that said, the options will be limitless in regards to creating you own, personal Nike Zoom Kobe V. Obviously, you will be able to choose your own colorway; however, Nike will give you some choices that have never been available on a shoe since NikeiD began. Click here to learn about some of the many choices you can choose from when creating you’re own Nike Zoom Kobe V. Also, check out pictures of a finished Nike Zoom Kobe V product using NikeiD and photos of the Montalban Theatre where the display took place.
As we stated earlier, the Nike Zoom Kobe V NikeiD methods will feature attributes that have never been able to be altered on any shoe. First off, one will be able to choose between three graphics that will be displayed on the side panels and toe box. One graphic is inspired by Kobe Bryant’s infatuation with Kung Fu, while another preference draws inspiration from Kobe’s heart and love for the game. This will be represented by a repeated EKG design on the aforementioned sections. Lastly, a repeated print of Kobe’s individual code (supposedly his own language) will be a choice to choose from.
The sole is also a major section for NikeiD of the Zoom Kobe V. One will be able to choose from a solid colored outsole or a icy sole, which seems to be everybody’s favorite. As for the midsole, Nike applied a ground-breaking feature to incorporate into your personal Kobe V. For the first time in NikeiD history, you will be able to add a speckled design on your midsole as opposed to the traditional solid colored finish.
In regards to colors, there isn’t much you cannot do with the Nike Zoom Kobe V on NikeiD. You will be able to choose from a plethora of different color combinations and you will be able to decide if you want to incorporate a metallic finish or an exotic finish. The latter obviously will give the shoe that ‘Black Mamba’, snake-like feel to it. Other features include youre personal iD on the inner side of the tongue, your choice of a mascot on the collar area and limitless color options on the inner lining and the shoelaces.
The Nike Zoom Kobe V will be available on NikeiD tomorrow, December 10th, 2009n to build and share. However, you won’t be able to officially buy a pair until December 25th, 2009. In addition, more options will be added throughout 2010.
