Nike Kobe 5 Year of the Mamba University Red (GS)

Description

The Nike Kobe 5 Year of the Mamba University Red (GS) is a bold grade school sized release that honors both Kobe Bryant s legacy and the 2025 Lunar New Year in striking style. Dressed in a vibrant university red, black, and metallic gold palette, this special edition Nike Kobe 5 sneaker in grade school sizing takes inspiration from the Year of the Snake and Kobe s iconic « Black Mamba » persona. A golden snake graphic integrates with the eyelets and black Swoosh on the lateral side of the university red upper. Metallic gold accents shine across the toe box and tongue logo. A snakeskin-textured collar adds depth and luxury, reinforcing the theme. Black Swooshes and a durable black rubber outsole anchor the design with sharp contrast. Launched exclusively in China on January 18, 2025, for $120, we love the snake theme details and how the grade school Nike Kobe 5 Year of the Mamba University Red (GS) celebrates heritage, excellence, and the spirit of the Lunar New Year.
