Last night Kobe Bryant surpassed Jordan as the NBA’s third all-time leading scorer. To celebrate this honor, Nike has released the NIKEiD KOBE 9 Elite Low “Mamba Moment” shoe.

Whether you love or hate him, Kobe is a competitor and this milestone helps solidify his place with the NBA’s all-time greats. With five championships, 16 All-Star appearances, and now 32,292 points, Bryant’s hall of fame career has hit another pinnacle.

The shoe features a multi-color Flyknit upper of purple and green and a pre-set design with the customizable options that include: the laces, midsole, tongue and Swoosh. Color choices also include glow-in-the-dark and metallic colors. A personalized name and number can be printed on the inside of the tongue. The shoe is available now for a limited time on www.nike.com.
