Remember when Kobe was playing in Air Jordans, specifically the AJ III? I’m sure he would approve of these custom Air Jordan III based off his 2011 NBA All Star Game Zoom Kobe VI. These are pretty much a mash up of Kobe All Star 2003 x Kobe All Star 2011. Customized by Eric Lowry of El Cappy Customz these previously all white Pure AJ IIIs were given the black, red, and white colorway of the Western conference’s uniforms from last February’s NBA All Star Game. The same snakeskin pattern and gradient found on the Zoom Kobe VI was hand painted on the uppers scale by scale. Fine detailing in the blacked out elephant print, black midsoles, black tongues, and red Jumpman logos complete the transformation. A refreshing pattern take on a classic Air Jordan whose main focus is usually that cement gray elephant print. Photos by: Rick Williams
