One of the Nike Basketball sneakers that Bradley Beal had in his extensive rookie rotation was the Nike Kobe 8.
The Kobe 8 was another example of the revolutionary footwear Kobe strived for, providing an even lighter and faster shoe than past low-top basketball sneakers. This was done via weight-shaving Engineered Mesh on the upper, which still maintained support via a Hyperfuse backing. The Kobe 8 also introduced a drop-in Lunarlon midsole that was comfortable to the point that this feature was re-used on future Kobe designs.
Beal opted for the “Year of the Snake” colorway in 2013, which you can find HERE.
You can find the Nike Kobe 8 at StockX, GOAT, Stadium Goods, and Flight Club.
