With the biggest hoops weekend in the NBA season right around the corner, Nike has pulled out all the stops for one of its representatives and the host for the big game. Four strategically designed, Los Angeles and All-Star themed Zoom Kobe VIs have released or are about to, and all of them are sure to end up someone’s favorite. From the City Series shoes inspired by Orange Country, East LA and Hollywood to the game-specific “All-Star” sneaker, there are details aplenty in this group. All these nice kicks raise a question, though: Which is the best?
In this Sneaker Showdown, we pit all four of the aforementioned sneakers against each other to find out which readers like best. Is it the lenticular-tongued ASG shoe or one of the city-honoring kicks? Check out all four in detail and then vote in the poll at the bottom of the page.
