A couple of days after debuting a never-before-seen Nike Zoom Kobe VII Elite PE, our Kicks On Court column spotted the Black Mamba in a new, predominately purple Nike Zoom Kobe VII. In addition to the mainly purple base, the pair Kobe wore in game 2 of the Nuggets vs. Lakers series also features minimal white accents (midsole, swoosh) throughout the upper. He also opted for the ‘Attack Strong’ insert, which is also colored in purple. Was yesterday’s 38-point performance in these one of the best Kicks On Court moments for the Black Mamba in recent memory? View these kicks plus more, worn by Pau Gasol, Ty Lawson, Louis Williams and others, below.

Just want to buy a pair of Featured Shoes: Nike Air Safari VNTG – Mesa Orange Sneakers right now? Featured Shoes: Nike Air Safari VNTG – Mesa Orange Sneakers.

If you are still not satisfied with the spectacle of animal-themed sneakers in your vault, you might want to add the latest release which plays on the Nike Air VNTG. This runner has been called the Nike Air Safari VNTG since its major attribute is the Safari concept. This is a follow-up colorway to the previously released pair that was of different tone.

As a shoe that belongs to Nike classic lineup, this Nike Air Safari VNTG showcases a modern construction with the unique blending of premium materials on the upper. The idea of Safari flashes from the mudguard, heel, and collar in brown leather, whereas the midpanel creates a velvety appeal with the use of mesa orange suede. The latter is further pumped up by the tonal nylon toe box. White shoe lace, Swoosh, and Nike branding accompany the vintage-looking midsole and outsole.

Shop Burner is now letting this vintage pair sit on shelves.
