Nike Zoom Kobe IX Elite Low Basketball Sneaker | IH5095-002
Nike Zoom Kobe IX Elite Low — Engineered for the Mamba, Built for the Court
The Nike Zoom Kobe IX Elite Low (Style No. IH5095-002) is a faithful retro of one of Kobe Bryant’s most technically advanced signature shoes. Originally released in 2014, the Kobe 9 Elite Low broke new ground by introducing Flyknit technology to the basketball court — a first for the sport. This reissue brings back that revolutionary construction with the same precision engineering that made it a favorite of elite players and sneaker collectors alike.
Low-cut, featherlight, and devastatingly responsive — the Kobe IX Elite Low is the shoe for players who rely on speed, footwork, and feel. Lace up and move like the Mamba.
Key Features
- Flyknit Upper: Nike’s revolutionary knit construction wraps the foot in a seamless, sock-like fit — ultra-lightweight, breathable, and precisely engineered for basketball’s lateral demands. A historic first for the sport when originally introduced.
- Full-Length Zoom Air Cushioning: A full-length Zoom Air unit delivers low-to-the-ground responsiveness and explosive energy return, keeping you quick and reactive on every possession.
- Low-Top Performance Cut: The low-profile silhouette maximizes ankle mobility and agility — ideal for guards and wing players who rely on speed and quickness.
- Dynamic Flywire Cables: Integrated Flywire lacing system provides adaptive, lockdown support across the midfoot without adding bulk or weight.
- Carbon Fiber Shank Plate: A lightweight carbon fiber plate in the midsole delivers torsional rigidity and stability during explosive cuts and direction changes.
- Herringbone Rubber Outsole: Multi-directional traction pattern engineered for hardwood performance — reliable grip on cuts, pivots, and fast breaks.
- Padded Collar: Minimal yet supportive ankle cushioning for a clean, comfortable fit throughout extended play.
