Nike is back honoring greatness, and this time they’ve done it in pure Mamba style.
The Kobe Bryant Air Force 1 Low “Court Purple” brings serious energy for Fall 2025. Dressed in a full purple snakeskin upper, this pair bites hard—just like Kobe did on the court. It’s bold, it’s fierce, and it screams Lakers pride from heel to toe.
Subtle nods make this pair extra special. The lace dubrae spells out “FOREVER,” and Kobe’s iconic number 8 is stitched on the heel. You’ll also spot that slick Mamba logo, because of course.
While it’s built on the classic Nike Air Force 1 Low, this isn’t your everyday pair. This one’s for fans, collectors, and anyone who carries that Mamba Mentality to the streets. It mixes legacy with style in a way that only Kobe can inspire.
