Originally introduced as Kobe Bryant's signature shoe in 1998, the adidas Crazy 8 J made a comeback in 2005 with its bold aesthetic still intact. Presenting the "Black Gold" edition for kids, this shoe features a combination of crackled and smooth leather along with a lateral cage for added support. To enhance the fit, patterned nylon webbing is strategically woven through the collar to assist the laces in keeping the foot securely in place. The design is further enhanced by EVA midsole cushioning, a Torsion System for stability, and a durable solid rubber outsole.
