The Nike Kobe 8 Easter draws inspiration from the Easter holiday and features the warm colors of spring, including Laser Purple, Fiberglass, and Vibrant Orange accents.
Starting on a lightweight note, the Kobe 8 features a knit construction on the upper. The breathable vamp has a Fiberglass color, which fades away near the midfoot. The quarters have different designs, with the lateral having an orange shade and a black Swoosh and the medial displaying a court purple surface. While the lateral color is plain and purple, the medial is embellished by a bright orange swoosh. The heel has Laser Purple and black overlays and a handwritten signature on the lateral side to give Kobe’s personal touch.
We love the functional yet aesthetically pleasing sole of this sneaker. The heel features a speckled finish to mimic a starry night. The sole also features a Lunarlon insert from the front to the rear to give additional comfort. The Nike Kobe 8 Easter was released on March 29th, 2013, for $140.
