The Nike Kobe 7 “Invisibility Cloak” hasn’t been available since its original release in 2012, but that’s finally changing. Nike Basketball is bringing the shoe back in Fall 2027, marking the first time the Kobe 7 will receive the Protro treatment. The original pair became a favorite for its unusual color-changing upper, which shifts between purple and turquoise as the light hits it from different angles.
Nike is keeping the familiar Black, Court Purple, and Turquoise Blue colors for the 2027 version. The shoe features textured black leather, Metallic Silver Swooshes, and Infrared Kobe branding, with an icy outsole underneath. Most of the attention will probably go straight to the upper, though. Its iridescent finish gives the shoe that changing appearance people remember from the original release, and it’s also how the “Invisibility Cloak” nickname came about.
