Sneakerheads can’t get enough Kobe. From Protro versions of his classic signature silhouettes to Kobe-branded lifestyle models like the Air Force 1 and Dunk, the Black Mamba line has made its mark on nearly every facet of Nike’s catalog. A staple in every hooper’s bag, the Nike Offcourt Slide has also been getting the Kobe treatment this year, and a new colorway is here for anyone looking to recover in red.
The Kobe Bryant x Nike Offcourt Slide University Red keeps the same monochrome make-up as other colorways that have dropped this year, interrupting the bright red with a white Kobe sheath logo in the middle of the forefoot strap. Keeping the Mamba theme consistent across all of the Kobe Offcourt Slides, the red colorway features a subtle snakeskin print on the strap.
Nike set the performance basketball market on fire with the return of the Nike Kobe 3 in Protro form, but in the month since, we’ve seen a nonstop barrage of Kobe-branded heat. Expect more and more lifestyle models featuring Kobe branding to hit shelves throughout the rest of this year and into 2026.
The Kobe Bryant x Nike Offcourt Slide University Red will be released Holiday 2025 through Nike and select retailers in-store and online. Available in men’s sizing, the retail price is set at $42.
