This weekend we’ll see the Nike Kobe 9 EM “China” hit retail shelves, expanding beyond the initially rumored Asia exclusive. While that pair comes with an added dose of notoriety thanks to the premium styled metallic gold Swoosh and a bright red twist, these three new colorways of the Nike Kobe 9 EM should stand on their own enough to turn heads as well. The engineered mesh variety of Kobe’s 9th signature has quietly mounted momentum late this summer with multiple releases last month. If you remember, a similarly styled “Metallic Silver” pair dropped August 1st, and now the print gets added vibrance in Game Royal, Gorge Green, and Gym Red. Get a better glimpse of these three upcoming Nike Kobe 9 EM pairs and let us know which pair you’re feeling in the comments section.
