Here’s what happens when you wait to drop a traditional colorway until the summer when a league’s collective bargaining agreement is set to lapse. Will we ever get the chance to see Kobe Bryant work his magic in this new Nike Zoom Kobe VI release? You’d have to expect that if the NBA keeps on infighting through the rest of the year, we’ll see the Zoom Kobe VII when the Black Mamba returns to Staples Center. But if cooler heads prevail over the fuzzy math, this would be the first ‘true’ Lakers colorway we will see Kobe kicking on court; will you take matters into your own hands and wear these for the coming cold weather indoor ball season? Have a closer look at the ‘Imperial Purple’ Zoom Kobe 6 by clicking on the jump below, then look for them at select Nike Basketball retailers like Eastbay.
