Released in 2005, the Nike Zoom Kobe 1 'Black Maize' marked the highly-anticipated debut signature shoe of basketball legend Kobe Bryant with Nike. Prior to this, Bryant had spent two years sporting different models, namely the Air Huaraches and Air Jordans, on the court. With its attention-grabbing design, this mid-top sneaker features a sleek black leather upper complemented by a striking white Swoosh and a vibrant yellow textile collar. Further emphasizing the contrasting color scheme, the midsole also boasts the same yellow hue, which is elevated by the inclusion of double Zoom Air units and a sturdy carbon fiber shank.
