Kobe Bryant, Eric Avar and the Inside Story of the Kobe X

Now that the Nike Kobe X has officially been unveiled, the look, back story, and inspiration of the shoe are among the many questions consumers would like to see answered before its release later this month. Nike does exactly that in a very traditional yet modern sense, offering up an audio podcast with Bryant himself and Kobe X designer, Eric Avar. Sitting down to chat in Los Angeles, the two discuss the history of the Nike Kobe Series and of course, the thought process behind the all-new Kobe X. Give it a listen below and lookout for the Nike Kobe X “5 AM Flight” on February 7th.
