This special-edition AF1 is inspired by Kobe's early playing days and the start of his Mamba Mentality. Kobe broke his hand during a preseason game, but that didn't stop him from getting shots up at 4 a.m. in his pajamas. Benefits - Leather upper with perforated toe box is breathable and comfortable. Patterned laces nod to the legendary tale of Kobe practicing in plaid pajamas while recovering from an injury. Originally designed for performance hoops, Nike Air cushioning adds lightweight, all-day comfort. Rubber outsole with heritage hoops pivot circles delivers traction and durability. []
