For the first time since 2013, fans will be able to see Nike release another pair of legendary shoes in the Kobe Bryant style. Nike plans to rerelease the Nike Kobe 8 in its well-known “Venice Beach” color scheme in 2024, coinciding with their other upcoming Protro releases. We finally have an official look at the re-release of these, which had been speculated for months. Check out our Sneakers news page for more breaking news and upcoming releases.

The Nike Kobe 8 was unveiled in 2013 as the eighth model in Kobe’s line of footwear. Bryant finished that season with an average of 27.3 points, 6.0 assists, and 5.6 rebounds in an attempt to earn his fifteenth career All-Star selection. The Kobe 8 was a huge hit, with a chic shape and eye-catching color scheme. Nike will follow the original specifications for this version, just like they did for the previous one.

The Nike Kobe 8 “Venice Beach,” which was then located next to the Staples Center, honors the town and beach. The shoe’s distinctive ocean views are enhanced by the blue TPU plate and midsole, both of which include Bryant’s autograph. The shoe uppers are designed to resemble the graffiti that lines the famous promenade; the vibrant tie-dye colors authentically capture the vibe of the area. With its California orange inner sockliner, this shoe is definitely perfect for summer use.

Overall, this is a thrilling colorway to witness make its debut, and similar to previous releases, these should sell out quickly. On the secondary market, these items have sold for over $500, so supporters are delighted to have another opportunity to acquire them at retail.

Spectators can anticipate these to become available on April 13, 2024, priced at $180. As with previous Nike Kobe releases, complete men’s sizing should be available via the Nike SNKRS app. Ensure that you set your alarms, as this is an opportunity that you should not fail to seize.
