While some are still calling this pair the Christmas Kobe 9 Elite, it appears the real nickname is ‘Poker Ace’. We are still a bit conflicted, although there is green, red and white, all Christmas colors the release is expected to happen in Australia way earlier then the Holiday. If tradition has its way, the LeBron 12, KD 7 and the Kobe 9 will release on the same day no matter what part of the world and this pair is expected to drop on December 1st (in Australia).
Sooner rather than later the truth will come out what this pair really is, either Poker Ace or Christmas. For now we can enjoy the on feet look. We won’t deny the pair looks amazing and fans of red sneakers (true color is bright crimson) will appreciate them.
