adidas keeps the memory of Kobe Bryant alive with the release of the adidas Crazy 2.0 “Zero Metallic”. The standout silhouette is a 2000s-era throwback, originally released as the KB8 III as part of Kobe’s retro-futuristic playstyle. Now, the sneaker is back in an updated form with some new twists.
The “Zero Metallic” colorway features a tonal bone-white upper with textural highlights and angular paneling. Subtle pops of Core Black and Onix Grey on the collar lining and outsole provide contrast, but retain the lowkey base. All in all, it’s unapologetically aggressive—a design that borders on the sculptural with sci-fi vibes and robotic references that nod to the current state of sneakers.
Performance upgrades don’t take a backseat to form either. The Crazy 2.0 holds true to the OG design while incorporating Lightstrike cushioning to Kobe’s chunky silhouette. The feature packs in adidas’ lightweight responsiveness and plush feel. Meanwhile, the outsole features signature herringbone traction and midfoot Three Stripes bars, as expected from the reissue of the KB line.
The adidas Crazy 2.0 “Zero Metallic” is available now at adidas.com and select retailers for $160 USD in men’s sizes.
