A Kobe Bryant Reebok sneaker isn't something you see every day.

The Reebok Answer IV is an iconic basketball shoe that made its debut in 2001. Designed specifically for NBA superstar Allen Iverson, it quickly gained popularity for its unique style and performance features. The shoe showcases a sleek and streamlined design with a durable leather upper and a DMX cushioning system for enhanced comfort and responsiveness on the court. With its signature zip-up lace cover, the Reebok Answer IV became a symbol of Iverson's rebellious playing style, solidifying its place as a beloved sneaker in basketball culture.

This sneaker in particular is very interesting. In the 2002-2003 season, Kobe Bryant was testing the sneaker market before he landed on Nike. He even wore the sneakers in-game. There were a very limited number of pairs made, but now it's coming on the market. This is a sneaker that carries a story and will certainly excite sneakerheads and basketball fans. It's not often a sneaker this special gets a general release.
