Originally known as the KB8, the adidas Crazy 8 made its debut in 1997, marking Kobe Bryant's inaugural signature shoe in collaboration with the brand. Reintroduced in 2015, the retro version of the Crazy 8, dubbed the 'Black White', boasts a blend of leather and synthetic materials for its upper, accompanied by an inner bootie that provides excellent friction resistance. Furthermore, an air mesh lining is incorporated into the design to enhance breathability. The EVA foam midsole stands out with its pronounced overlays, extending from the outsole to maintain the iconic black-and-white color scheme, which has become synonymous with the silhouette.
