The Nike Kobe A.D. Mid, Ingles’ shoe of choice, was originally released in August 2017. Ingles has worn it for each of his 162 games over the past two seasons, despite the fact that it hasn’t been manufactured since the 2017-18 season. Wearing a discontinued model was already a challenge, but all Kobe Bryant-related merchandise became harder to come by after the NBA legend’s death in January. Nike hasn’t released any Bryant products since, but the company will kick off a weeklong celebration of Bryant featuring new footwear and apparel starting Sunday, which would have been Bryant’s 42nd birthday.
