Kobe Bryant's Retro Reebok Shoes Releasing Soon
The 2022-23 NBA season has not been an enjoyable experience for fans of the Los Angeles Lakers. Luckily, an upcoming release from Reebok is sure to spark joy for the purple and gold faithful.
The shoes worn by Kobe Bryant during his legendary sneaker free agency season are making a comeback. The Reebok Question Mid 'Yellow Toe' is scheduled to release at midnight on Friday, February 10, 2023. Fans can purchase the shoes for $160 on Reebok's website.
Reebok Question Mid
The Reebok Question Mid was the first installment of Philadelphia 76ers legend Allen Iverson's sneaker line. However, the shoes found an unlikely ally in Iverson's rival across the country in Los Angeles.
Twenty years ago, Bryant was a sneaker free agent and wore over 100 different pairs of sneakers during the regular season. Bryant wore almost every brand imaginable, including several Reebok models.
The "Black Mamba" broke internet message boards when he played in a player-exclusive colorway of the Reebok Question Mid. The colorway featured a white tumbled leather upper with a yellow synthetic nubuck toe overlay. Strategically placed purple detailing completes the Lakers-inspired shoe.
Since Bryant's tragic passing, it has been extremely challenging for fans to find his shoes at retail price. However, this Friday will be a solid opportunity for fans of the Lakers legend to purchase the shoes he wore while destroying his opponents on the hardwood.
