By now, you’re used to this sentence: “Here we have yet another look at a new colorway of the Zoom Kobe V.”
And you’re probably used to this sentence, too: “Worn by Kobe Bryant, several Lakers teammates and players around the league, the Zoom Kobe V has been widely loved for its great performance.”
First debuted by Kobe on Thursday in Miami and then again on Friday night in Charlotte, look for the Black/ White/ Del Sol colorway to drop in the next month. Priced $130 as usual. Great performance, as usual.

Great colorway, these are really noticeable, because of the great use of the Black/White contrast.
Over kill with the Speckle on the sides, but however, its still a ZKV and it’s still a great shoe
I’m not big on the “paint” speckles either, but otherwise great colorway!!!
Super hot and looks perfect with black socks. I’d rock with black laces too.
I’m a big fan of these, pretty much a perfect simple black/white balling shoe, but I don’t even really mind the yellow.
Why so many colourways of this shoe?
These drop in Australia April 1, I’m assuming that’s a worldwide release date… have had mine on order for 7 months…
where did you order them??
I actually like these,unlike the IV’s…
