Part of the Kobe Prelude Pack, the Nike Kobe 4 “Prelude” was originally set to release on December 28th, 2013, but due to technical issues the shoe was rescheduled to officially launch on January 4th, 2014.

Dressed in a Court Purple, Metallic Gold, and Purple Venom color scheme. This was the first retro release of the Nike Kobe 4 that nods to Kobe Bryant winning his fourth NBA title and first Finals MVP Award. It features a Purple base covered in an allover paint splatter design. Zoom Air and Lunarlon cushioning atop an icy translucent outsole completes the design.
