Television serves as the inspiration for the latest iteration of the Kobe XI and details have been revealed for its upcoming release.

First previewed back in March, Nike has released a full set of images of the "TV" Kobe XI giving fans a better idea of what to expect. The upper is meant to replicate the television noise or static, while the back heel is representative of the SMPTE color bars normally seen when a channel is off-the-air. Complimenting the upper is a clear outsole with the visible Zoom Air on the heel. One final detail not seen in the original images, the Swoosh sports a reflective finish which is visible in the blacked out image below.

A release date of Friday, May 27 has been announced, but Sneaker Bar Detroit reports that this model might be a GS release only. If that's the case, the news would come as a disappointment for many Kobe fans and sneakerheads. If you want this pair, make sure to keep your fingers crossed.
