It's been a while but the long wait is over, the much-awaited Nike Kobe 8 "Purple Fade" / "Purple Gradient" is coming! May 11 is the rumored Philippine release so expect a rough weekend. This is a general release but with the hype surrounding these, it may sell out faster than the Kobe 8 System Sulfur.

The shoe features a full Shozoku logo on the heel and the usual fused Swoosh branding on the lateral and medial sides, both in Pure Platinum. Blackened Blue come from the heel cup and speckled midsole. Court purple then fades to that sexy Laser Purple toe for that classic look. If you look closely, you'll see that the mesh pattern is a bit similar to the Red Camo YOTS Kobe 8 but with a totally different color blocking.

Is this one of the best Kobe 8 colorways to come out?
