The Kobe 9 Elite, in a new Christmas themed color scheme, marks the introduction of a high-top version to the Kobe line with this festive colorway. The shoe showcases red and white accents on its Flyknit upper, which harmonize with the swirling pattern on the outsole, drawing inspiration from the colors of Christmas stockings. Offering enhanced stability in the midfoot area, thanks to the Flywire technology incorporated into the lacing system, the shoe is further distinguished by a black Swoosh and Mamba branding, while its sock-like design ensures a comfortable and snug fit.
