A 2006 Kobe Bryant PE Air Force 1 sees a wider release two decades later with the Nike Air Force 1 Low Protro with two tones of denim. Light denim serves as a base, with dark indigo overlay panels and orange contrast stitching for added pop. Several updates and design improvements mark this edition, with ReactX drop-in insoles to soften the landing and orange Mamba logos on the lateral heels. Kobe’s signature is also added on the midsole for a final nod to the legendary Black Mamba.
Extending from our ongoing Pipeline projects with LAAMS, Packer is proud to highlight one creative whose work hit the table on day 1 in Teaneck. Devante Hicks handmade two special pieces to highlight the upcoming re-release of the Kobe Bryant Nike Air Force 1. One framed item uses frayed, distressed denim like the 2006 release, while the other has crispy swatches to match the 2026 pair. Packer is rewarding one lucky customer who purchases the AF1 this Friday with this original piece of art, while the other will be up for sale at the LAAMS NYC shop, bringing together our first collaborative project just weeks after the Pipeline 001 event.
Each purchase of the denim Nike Air Force 1 Protro earns an entry for a chance to win this hand-crafted denim art piece by Unorth.us denim maker Devante Hicks.
Available online and in-store at our Jersey City and Teaneck locations.
