Nike Honors Kobe Bryant’s Roots With the Dunk Low “Lower Merion Aces”
Nike has officially prepped the Kobe Bryant x Nike Dunk Low “Lower Merion Aces,” paying homage to his time with the team. Honoring the basketball legend’s high school roots in suburban Philadelphia before his historic leap to the NBA, the upcoming release blends classic mid-80s aesthetics with modern performance updates.
The “Lower Merion Away” iteration is drenched in a bold red hue that perfectly matches the away uniforms from Bryant’s high school era. The upper is constructed from a tactile mixture of satin, premium leather, chenille, and mesh materials. Several distinctive details nod to the Black Mamba’s legacy throughout the design. Bryant’s high school number, 33, is embroidered on the lateral heel, while his signature graces the heel tab. The iconic sheath logo appears on both the tongue and the outsole, complemented by snake-inspired details integrated into the forefoot traction. Tucked inside the tongue, a hidden quote reads: “Friends hang sometimes. Banners hang forever.”
