Today, Packer Shoes<\/strong> excited the sneaker world with the release of the Reebok Question “For Player Use Only” Pack<\/a>. The good folks in Jersey have brought back two Kobe Bryant exclusives this year for the first time, also launching the “Dunk Contest” colorway of the EQT Elevation. In celebration of Packer Shoes and the Black Mamba, we take a look at ten more Kobe Bryant PEs we’d like to see released. Check out all of the unreleased exclusives in the pages below, and let us know which pairs you would cop if they hit shelves in the comments.<\/p>\n

Air Jordan 3<\/h2>\n photo by frankchang of Kenlu<\/a>\n

The best of both worlds? For some sneakerheads, yes. The Air Jordan 3 Kobe Bryant PE ranks high on any best of the best player exclusive list. Deriving from the White\/Cement classic, this pair lends Lakers accents to the elephant print favorite. Kobe did work in these too, dunking on Yao and dropping 40 on a few occasions. Sadly, Jordan Brand never dropped these.<\/p>\n

Kobe Bryant didn’t make the Flight Huarache more famous than the Fab 5 did, but he definitely championed them once they were retroed. During his unsigned season, Kobe laced up “Home” and “Away” PEs of the famous Flights, and even an inline makeup. We’re still waiting for his exclusives to drop.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

MJ was famous for rocking black kicks during the playoffs, but Kobe and adidas went another route. An almost all-white makeup of the KB8 graced Jelly Bean Jr.’s feet during his third foray in the postseason. He eventually laced up the KB8 III and never looked back.<\/p>\n

Just like the Reebok Question, Kobe and LeBron were both given PE pairs of the Air Zoom Flight 2k3. Home and road colorways are both clean on this Alpha Project design. We can only hope when this model gets retroed that PEs get love too.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Air Jordan 7<\/h2>\n photos via SneakerFiles<\/a>\n

The Air Jordan 7 is a natural favorite for Kobe Bryant. The shoe features the Huarache technology he’s endorsed officially and unofficially, and it pays homage to his guy Mike. The black pair paired perfectly with the Nike Rewind Lakers jersey he wore on an epic SLAM cover and is definitely worthy of release. The seldom seen “Home” makeup is also dope.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Nike Hyperdunk\/Kobe IV Hybrid<\/h2>\n

How do you transition from one radically inventive shoe to another? Hybrid is the future. Nike came up with a special Hyperdunk PE for the Black Mamba, altering it with the sole of his upcoming Kobe IV silo. Tech fans would rejoice over a retro release.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Air Jordan 8<\/h2>\n

The Air Jordan 8 isn’t always adored in non-OG makeups, but the only complaint regarding this Kobe colorway was that it never released. We’re down for a formal launch of this pair and wouldn’t mind seeing an “Away” version either.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Even though it wasn’t technically a signature, the Nike Air Zoom Huarache 2k4 saw Kobe’s official arrival at Nike. Tons of variations were made for Kobe, ranging from laser etching to elephant print. The Huarache 2k4 didn’t perform very strong in its first retro run, but hey, neither did the early Jordans or Pennys. A little bit of Kobe pizzazz would be enough to excite fans and collectors.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

adidas The Kobe II “USA”<\/h2>\n photo via SI Vault\n

Despite the polarizing design of the adidas The Kobe 2, this “USA” edition still stands as quite the collectible. Worn on court by Kobe and LeBron James during his high school days, this patriotic pair is certainly worthy of the retro treatment.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Air Jordan 9<\/h2>\n photo by @dependablejay<\/a>\n

Though KB8 never rocked these AJ9s on the hardwood, this pair still packs plenty of intrigue. Sporting a white leather upper, purple patent mudguard and yellow number tagging. Oddly enough, a similar pair was also made for then-teammate Shaq. With the success of the “Kilroy” Pack, we can only imagine how popular these PE pairs would be.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
