Last season, the UConn Huskies took home the NCAA men’s basketball championship, besting Kentucky 60-54 to give coach Kevin Ollie his first title. When the Huskies go for the repeat — or, failing a bid, look to add an NIT title to their trophy case. They put NIT titles in trophy cases? — they’ll do so in a school-spirited take on Kobe’s latest; call it the Nike Kobe 10 UConn PE.
The perfect match to the team’s home whites, the shoe sports a crisp, solid white upper, offset by navy on the Swoosh, heel and tongue, while red sandwiches the whole set-up on the liner and outsole. In terms of matching UConn’s colors, I don’t think you can come any closer than this.
Look for the Nike Kobe 10 UConn PE on Husky feet going forward although, alas, a launch isn’t coming. You can make this exact set-up on NIKEiD now, though, if you’re so inclined.
