Nike has been rekindling the fire of past years by bringing back to life some of the most memorable Kobe colorways in history. The “3D” pair is dropping soon and already we’ve seen “Carpe Diem”, “Bruce Lee” and other gems make their way to store shelves, and it looks like a loose adaptation of “Dark Knight” will be making its return on July 9th. Unlike the 2009 release of the Kobe V “Dark Knight”, this Kobe 11 doesn’t feature a hint of blue – but it’s clear that the one of Black Mamba’s fictional muses could be the inspiration here. Check out official images ahead.

Although the 2916 Unlimited Olympic Collection was introduced just the other day, it seems that the new Nike Hyperdunk 2016 in its Elite/Flyknit construction has also been treated in the special colorway to celebrate the upcoming Summer Games in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.

Boasting a tonal black flyknit upper which flows to the extended sock component, the stealthy hue is offset by vibrant two-tone flywire system which displays yellow on the outer and pink on the lateral side. The defining theme which are inspired by the animals found in Brazil’s tropical rainforests, is focalized on its midsole and heel counter which displays a gradient fade from yellow to orange and pink.

All resting atop a translucent outsole, a release date for this pair has not been announced, but, stay tuned to KicksOnFire for additional updates.
