The Kobe Venomenon 5 burst onto the scene and garnered some notable attention for the unique heel pattern, excellent traction, plenty of Zoom Air, and a truly unique heel counter featuring a jagged print inspired by Kobe’s Sheath Logo. There’s a lot going on in the world of Black Mamba footwear even though Kobe has retired for good. His Nike Kobe AD has been a strong performer and Eric Avar’s twist on the Kobe AD NXT featuring a Flyknit shroud inspired by a Lotus Flower is definitely head-turning. Now we get a look at the Nike Kobe Venomenon 6 for the first time. The mesh and fuse tooled pair looks like it could use a Swoosh on the side panel but Nike is still updated new models with that toe placement while snakeskin-inspired traction highlights the rather simple silhouette. It’s still a bit too soon to tell how the Venomenon 6 will play into the Kobe universe but do mind that this is a cheaper alternative to Kobe’s signature lineup. What are your first impressions? Check out the Triple Black colorway below and stay tuned for a Release Date in the near future.
