So, Grinch-green, some sort of hipster purple-plaid, a cheetah (because apparently Nike doesn't have a black mamba template on the ready), Kobe's autograph, and some sort of caliper system on the heel because apparently Kobe doesn't jump high enough as it is.
Incredibly ugly, but quite cool. We like it when Kobe steps out like this, and in a fashion era where more and more ostensibly hip basketball players are showing up to press conferences in cardigans that would put Pat Boone to shame, ugly is apparently the new sexy.
And if Kobe has any say, this will be the sexiest Christmas ever.
