Kobe Gave These Sneakers to Terrell Owens for Christmas

Kobe Bryant was apparently passing out player exclusives for Christmas.

All signs point to the Nike Kobe 9 Elite wrapping up very soon, with its successor set to be unveiled just days from now.

Before the shoe fades out of the picture, don't forget about this unreleased pair that's actually been floating around on Terrell Owens' Instagram for about a month now. The colorway is the closest that the Kobe 9 Elite will get to a 'Bruce Lee' look and features a mean black/yellow combination with a bit of speckling. It wouldn't be out of the ordinary for such a Kobe colorway to see a retail release, but given that the end is near for this design, that's pretty unlikely. The 'Bruce Lee' Kobe 9s join a long list of unreleased pairs for this silo available only to friends and family.
