With the Nike Zoom Kobe IV (4) almost at the end of its retail reign, we now have our first detailed look at a Nike Zoom Kobe 5 (V) Sample. Nike decided to go with a low-cut design again, but there are definitely many differences between the ZK4 and the upcoming ZK5. The ZK5 will feature a full length Zoom cushioning to increase comfort and a full mesh tongue to increase breathability. This pair hosts a black upper accented by purple laces, a white swoosh, and what appears to be flywire technology on the side panels. Bryant’s logo and signature appear on the tongue and heel, respectively. Please note that changes will most likely be made before the Nike Zoom Kobe 5 (V) is eventually released later this year.

Kobe Bryant put on a show last night with his 40 points as the Lakers cruised by the Magic with a 100-75 win in game 1 of the NBA Finals. Though his performance was stellar, his sneakers weren’t too bad either. Last night, Kobe laced up a new colorway of his signature sneaker, the  Nike Zoom Kobe IV (4). Though Kobe has worn a plethora of GR colorways upto now, he walked onto the court last night with a special, Kobe exclusive ZKIV. This pair featured a white base with forum blue accents seen on the mid-sole, heel, inner lining, and toe box, while gold accents are visible via the out-sole, the Kobe signature, the logo on the tongue, and the text on the sneaker which refers back to some of Kobe’s accomplishments, such as his 61 point performance at Madison Square Garden earlier this year. Unfortunately, these will most likely never make their way to retailers, but be sure to check back to see what Kobe will be rocking in games 3 and 4.

After seeing multiple variations of the Nike Zoom Kobe Iv (4) commemorating different occasions, this Nike Zoom Kobe IV is certainly special not only to us, but to the signature man himself. The ZK4 Gold Medal edition commemorates #10 of the U.S.A. Men’s Olympic Basketball team, who took the gold this past summer of 2008. Thus, the idea for this gold shoe was born. The shoe features the team colors of white, blue, and red o nthe side panel, tongue, and laces, and is contrasted by the gold on the toe area and heel. The trademark Kobe symbol is found on the tongue with “10″ embedded on the back ankle tab and a gold medal printed on the insole. These shoes are great for any baller or collector, so look out for these golden babies.
