After taking a hiatus on his last sneaker, Nike's bringing back one of the most memorable Kobe Bryant colorways for the Mamba's latest.

Previewed here is a "Bruce Lee" make up of the Nike Kobe 11. A favorite amongst Kobe enthusiasts, the "Bruce Lee" theme was first seen on 2010's Zoom Kobe V. The colorway takes inspiration from Lee's posthumous 1978 film Game of Death and features a striking Flyknit upper that fades from yellow to black. Hits of red appear on the Flywire, lace tips, and heel to signify battle scars, while a smoky translucent black outsole finishes the look off.

These are set to drop next month on March 19 for $200 and if previous "Bruce Lee" Kobe releases are any indication, this could be one of the fastest sell outs for the Kobe 11 thus far. Make sure you're prepared ahead of the launch if you're hoping to cop these.
