When people are crazy and attracted by the latest Zoom Kobe VII Shoes, there are more sneakers during Kobe's NBA career should get your attention.

The first pair of sneakers that Kobe owned on the court was named EQT 2000. At that time, adidas company was promoting his new technology of "Feet Your Wear". There are five spots designed in the shoe outsole allowing good support and reaction. This sneaker was design in plain appearance. Thanks to this feature, people remembered the shoes of the technology but not the looking.  

The next one is EQT 2010. The EQT 2010 was designed just the same as EQT 2000, there was not much change in the shoe upper, thicker midsole was added to the shoe which makes this shoe more durable. And next is the EQ Elevation showed on the slam dunk in NBA All-Star.

Adidas KB8 was Kobe's first signature shoes. The kicks that Kobe rocked on the court was decorated in white/black; there was Feet Your Wear technology in shoe outsole. The herringbone pattern in solid rubber outsole gave good grip on the court. Additionally, the cushioning system by Torsion system made this sneaker one of the most valuable for collecting Kobe shoes.

After that, it came to The KOBE I, and The KOBE II. These two series did not receive popularity from the public due to their crazy out-looking and lack of the features of lightweight, good cushioning and breathanility which are must- have features in basketball shoes. Top Ten Supreme Low sneaker was the last shoes that Kobe wore during the contract with Adidas. Kobe finally dismissed the contract with Adidas because he could no longer receive the shoes that could stand for his personality.


Before he contracted with Nike company, Kobe in a certain was a free man. He changed different shoes on the court. Weapon from Converse was the first one. After breaking of the cotract with adidas, Kobe was not forbidden in new contracts with any other shoe company. However, it was a good choice for him try on different sneakers from different companies in order to choose the best one and get the suitable shoes.

After that, as Carter, Kobe chose ANDI when he had no sponsors for his shoes. Different from Converse, ANDI was a new boy; it enjoyed good popularity in the world by the contract with Garnett and Taichi shoes. However, the performance proved that the shoes were not suitable for Kobe, so he only wore it for few times.

There were also Question I, Answer IV, Answer VI, Air Force 1 High and Air Zoom Flight Turbine that Kobe wore on the court before he signed the new contract with Nike Company. The Nike Zoom Huarache 2K4 was his first sneaker with Nike. Soon later, Air Zoom Huarache 2K5 came into the public's sight, which was the advanced model of 2K4.

Then from the Zoom Kobe 1, Kobe started to own his signature shoes with Nike company, known as Zoom Kobe Shoes to the public. Nike will not stop the talent in design of new Kobe shoes as Kobe will not end his talent on the court. Even if Kobe retires from NBA, his shoes are always one of the must- have NBA sneakers in your wardrobe.
