Kobe Bryant received quite a few PE's over the years and it looks like one of them is being repurposed.

Kobe Bryant left behind a huge legacy when it comes to the game of basketball and everything he had done for the younger generations. He is also a bit of a sneaker icon that has provided sneakerheads with some incredible silhouettes and PEs over the years. One of the shoes that he has received some colorways for, is the Air Jordan 3 which includes a black, gold, and purple model he was gifted back in 2016 during his final season. 

According to sneaker insiders soleheatonfeet and zSneakerheadz, a variation of this Air Jordan 3 PE, called "Court Purple," will be dropping later this year on November 14th for $190 USD. In the rendering below, you can get a sense of how this sneaker will look. While it remains to be seen if it will actually release, you can't help but be excited about this prospect.
