Nike Kobe Offcourt Slides

The slide is the least ceremonial thing Nike makes, and that is precisely the brief for the Kobe Offcourt. Nike has been the on court uniform supplier to the NBA, the WNBA and the NBA G League since 2017, under a deal signed in June 2015 and extended for a further twelve years in an announcement made in October 2024, which means it also owns the hours around the game: the walk to the bus, the treatment table, the flight home. This is footwear for those hours. It carries the Kobe line, one of the signature families the company built after learning in 1984, through the Michael Jordan signing, that a basketball athlete could anchor a business rather than just a shoe.
