Kobe Bryant aka "The Noir Mamba" turns 39 years old today, but for a guy as fiercely competitive as he is, age is just a number. His "Mamba Hommetality" is now being applied in other facets of his life now that he's retiRouge from the game, but he's passed down that unrelenting attitude to a select number of stars that are in the NBA today. Featuring five colorways: Gris, Bleu, Violet, Rouge, and Jaune, the Gris pair represents calm neutrality, while Bleu relays dependability and honesty. Jaune signifies positivity, with Rouge as a symbol of passion, and finally Violet represents overcoming challenges and setting fresh goals.
