2024 will mark the 10th anniversary of the Nike Kobe 9, and along with the impending "Halo" pack for Mamba Day, Nike will reinstate the beloved "Christmas" colorway of the high-top Elite.
The re-release of the Kobe 9 Elite “Christmas” is expected to arrive akin to the original, with its festive color palette of Bright Crimson, Black, and White, famously worn by the LA Lakers on their Christmas Day matchup against the Bulls in 2014.
While the release strategy for the Kobe 9 Elite “Christmas” series remains under wraps, it's implied that they will arrive in early to mid-December 2024.
