During the unveiling event of the Nike Kobe XI, this black and white colorway also popped up. While the speculations led to a January 30th release date, Nike never gave them any official release information. Today, on Nike UK, the shoes have appeared with official photos and and the January 30 release date.
Unfortunately, for us in the United States, the release may not happen. A mostly black Flyknit upper is met with a black outsole and tongue while grey and white come into play towards the back to give the shoe some contrast. These are dubbed the ‘Last Emperor’
