Nike Kobe 9 EM Low 'Philippines' - 2014

Nike Kobe 9 EM Low 'Philippines' - 2014

"The elements of this design represents me growing up in the Philippines. Here are a few of the inspirations behind these sneakers: the silver hints on the upper represent 'Jeepney' (Public transport); the translucent outsole represents 'Tsinelas' (flip flops), and the patterns on the upper equal 'Banig' (Bed mat) + basketball courts. Thank you to the 'Black Mamba' for being a role model and inspiration for this generation."
