Previously rumored to be releasing a wave of Kobe boots next year, adidas has finally gotten around to it!

The adidas EQT Elevation from the Dunk Contest will return instead as the adidas Crazy 97 EQT replica.

The earliest Kobe boot that left a lasting impression was the eye-catching purple colorway combined with the asymmetrical and exaggerated silhouette of the “Sky Foot” that made people forget it after just one look!

And this pair of shoes is not only the first pair of championship winning boots on Kobe’s feet in the Slam Dunk Contest, but also the first pair of championship winning boots on Kobe’s feet in the Slam Dunk Contest. Kobe’s only dunk contest boots, which is very significant.

Turning back to the replica shoe itself, the overall continuation of the year’s sky-high sci-fi silhouette

The asymmetrical upper outer white tramline creates a sharp sense of speed, and the rounded upper at the vamp

The cross-elastic heel strap was also an innovative attempt by adidas back in the day to further enhance the locking effect of the heel.

From the official images released so far, there is almost no big difference in details from the first year version, which is a good thing.

We have further updates on the release information, which is expected to officially debut in February next year, so you may want to pay close attention!
