One of the most active basketball lines in Nike is Kobe Bryant’s signature series that has been up in a spectacle of interesting colorways. If you are tracking this line you already have an idea how the previous releases were like and how the sneaker community respond to each. Now the Nike Zoom Kobe VII is entitled for one more shot and while in this subject let us consider the latest rendition dubbed as the “All-Star”.

For Kobe, hit it or miss it, his own line continues to shine so here is the All-Star edition. This particular sneaker is originally inspired by the black mamba but with the latest modification, we can see the upper in a glaring form where the base comes in black with several colors that hit the side in orange and blue shades. The white speckles seen all throughout the shoe add spark while the Flywire technology present on each side indicates that the shoe itself has reduced weight. Black leather is being used on the overlay and tongue matching up with the black rubber midsole. Kobe’s official logo is seen on the tongue and his signature appears on the heel while a special adorable pink flamingo graphic on the rear is the most attractive attribute.

Commonly called as “black canvas”, the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star started its mission in 1917. At first it played basketball and the Rock & Roll and then everything else. It went along with athletes and artists, experimenters, rebels, visionaries – and now, even after everything it’s been, it remains anything you want.

For over two decades, Super Mario Bros. was the best-selling video game of all time and it was largely responsible for the initial success of the Nintendo Entertainment System. As one of Shigeru Miyamoto and Takashi Tezuka’s most influential early successes, it has inspired many clones, sequels, and spin-offs. The game’s theme music by Koji Kondo is recognized worldwide, even by those who have not played the game, and has been considered a representation for video game music in general.

After 25 years of entertaining kids and adults alike with Mario and brother Luigi travel through the Mushroom Kingdom in order to rescue Princess Toadstool from the antagonist Bowser, Nintendo finally celebrates success by tying-up with Converse for a special project called the Converse Chuck Taylor All Star x Super Mario Bros. This brings two pairs of the legendary Chucks in black and white colorways with upper printed with images of the original 8-bit Mario occupying the entire canvas.
