***NEW UPDATE 6/23, BOTH TEES ARRIVING WEDNESDAY 6/23***
Important update for everyone who’s chasing down the Kobe four-rings tee. The Gold and Purple four-rings tees will be arriving a day earlier than expected: Thursday by noon at House of Hoops LA (Beverly Center). This is the only US store to get the gold release (with the updated purple sweatband), and the only store period to get the purple. Quantities are limited.


Good thing puppets and cartoons have four fingers, because now Kobe’s got four rings.
This 4-ring charcoal heather t-shirt is going to release at House of Hoops LA (Beverly Center) and LA area Foot Locker locations on Monday afternoon. The t-shirt design stems from Nike’s series of puppet commercials that ran throughout the NBA playoffs featuring Kobe and LeBron.

More HoH shots.
The very limited George “Iceman” Gervin blazer is finally here. We were hoping to see it in September, but the anticipation just makes it that much better. Enjoy, should be on-sale 10/18.
More shots from the Beverly Center opening of HoH. Check out the new Derek Fisher and Pau Gasol Power Max’s. These are LA only right now, a lot of love on the left coast. Should be on-sale 10/10.
Here it is, in the store, 12 pairs, game on. And it’s gooooolddd. If you’re on the West Coast wake up, because these are shots from the new Beverly Center LA House of Hoops, and you still have a few hours until opening. Hope the lines aren’t too long, good luck! Read more about these beauties on our last post.
The House of Hoops in Los Angeles is scheduled to open this Thursday, October 9th, at the Beverly Center, and conveniently there will be four pairs of Nike Hyperdunks launching soon, all including themes relevant to Kobe Bryant’s life. Kobe pays tribute to his Philadelphia-area high school, the Lower Merion Aces, as well as his favorite soccer player, Ronaldinho, and the country where he spent seven years growing up in, Italy. And sorry Raptor fans, but there will also be a special Hyperdunk to commemorate Bryant’s 81 point game against Toronto, nicknamed the ‘Making History’ Hyperdunk. (Psst…Don’t tell anyone Wilt hit for 100) Each shoe includes added textures and treatments like speckled or clear outsoles, as well as added touches on the tongue like the Lower Merion Aces logo. Each is available in limited quantities of course, so arrive early for Thursday’s opening.
