Earlier this year, we showcased the Nike Think Pink collection which was composed of the Nike Hyerdunk and the Nike Blue Chip Low. Both sneakers were worn by players across the country in honor of the great Kay Yow who was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer, and eventually passed away in late January. This Nike Zoom Kobe IV (4) draws from the same inspiration, and features a full pink upper with white accents and a white translucent sole. Whether the Nike Zoom Kobe IV (4) – Think Pink is simply a sample pair which was planned to release with the Nike Think Pink Collection, or if it will release in the future is still unknown, so stay tuned for updates.

We last saw the Nike Zoom Kobe V (5) Wear Test Sample in a white/black colorway. This time around, Nike has sampled the low-top basketball shoe in an all-black colorway. Of course, the shoe features Nike’s newest Lunarwire technology to advance stability without adding to the weight of the shoe. This sample is one step closer in finally seeing the ZK5’s in all its lightweight glory, so be sure to be on the lookout for more possible samples and don’t forget to support the Black Mamba and the Lakers!

With versions dedicated to the Minneapolis Lakers, Batman’s heinous villain The Joker, The Black Mamba, and Kobe Bryant’s “Carpe Diem” way of life, the Nike Zoom Kobe IV (4) has achieved fantastic success at retail, despite its suggestively lowtop silhouette. Images of Bryant’s fifth ride, the Zoom Kobe V (5), recently surfaced and it appears as if the crafty folks in Nike’s “BB” division have decided to stick with a low for the Los Angeles Lakers superstar. The shoe incorporates the Swoosh’s Lunarwire technology along the upper and Carbon Fiber spring plate under the arch to mitigate unwanted movement during lateral movements, cuts, and herky jerky crossovers. Let’s hope that KB’s newest model is devoid of Nike’s gimmicky LunarFoam. All Zoom cushioning, please.
