Adidas' Crazy 8 Low Lands in Original "Core Black"

The Adidas Crazy 8 Low continues to emerge in styles directly borrowed from the late Kobe Bryant's original KB8.

Having previously-surfaced in a 'Footwear White/Core Black/Collegiate Purple' makeup, the low-top sneaker will soon be available in a two-tone 'Core Black/Cloud White' that screams 1990s basketball. All of the retro hoop shoe's bells-and-whistles are intact in the shorter trim, with the exception of the taller collar. Exaggerated sole units deliver on-court attitude and performance, despite no longer dominating that realm given the model's firm position as a lifestyle option. Nevertheless, the sneaker serves as another reminder of Adidas Basketball's rich catalog.

Enjoy official photos of the 'Core Black' Crazy 8 Low ahead. A firm Adidas.com launch should take place by summertime for $120.
