The Zoom Kobe 2 ‘Prelude’ is a key component of a collection comprising eight shoes, which highlights the evolution of Kobe Bryant's signature footwear in collaboration with Nike, culminating in the release of the Kobe 9. This specific shoe design showcases a striking all-over marble pattern, embellished with gold accents on the eyelets and branding, drawing inspiration from the influential Renaissance art movement. A noteworthy detail is the number ‘4’ stenciled within the strap, symbolizing a remarkable achievement in 2007 when Kobe scored a minimum of 50 points in four consecutive games.
