Nike Kobe 11 "Draft Day" Releases Tomorrow!

The Nike Kobe 11 "Draft Day" sneaker colorway drops tomorrow. The sneaker colorway pays tribute to Kobe Bryant's draft night when he was drafted by the Charlotte Hornets. The Charlotte Hornets would make one of the most lopsided trades in NBA history that night, they made a trade that would send Bryant, a future multi-year NBA All Star, to the LA Lakers for the rest of his career.

The Nike Kobe 11 Draft Day is a special sneaker nonetheless. It's colors are the pristine clear colors seen on the Hornets uniforms. The shoes are definitely what could have been for some Hornet fans had the trade not happened. The sneaker features the date (6.26.96), the day Kobe was drafted, on the heel of the sneaker.

The sneaker features a mix of blue/grey/purple colors. The sneaker is built of light, flexible materials that makes the sneaker very nice to compete with.

The Nike Kobe 11 Draft Day releases tomorrow for $160. Look for the special sneaker at select Nike Basketball retail stores. The sneaker will also be available on Deadstock Canada as well.
