The Sole Supplier takes a closer look at the side of the latest offering from Bryant:

Using what the official website calls "Wolf Grey-Black," the shoe pleases the eye with a comfortable balance of the most basic of colors and tops it all off with a suave mesh design and transparent sole.

The bottom of the shoe is sure to please, too, thanks to the transparent look hiding a nifty design, as SneakerMob.com captures out in the wild:

Don't think the bottom is the only eye-catching feature, though, as the top-down view that Sole-U provides showcases the smooth design on the tongue alongside a signature and a smooth design on the inside of the shoe for good measure:

As is the case with many new releases as of late, the backsides of the shoes feature different designs capable of catching the eye, too.

"Fundamentals" covers this mark on the checklist with passing colors, too, as SneakerHooked captures:

One of the sport's legends thanks to his endearing commitment to the basics, Bryant's latest offering comes through while highlighting these things he preaches.

The mesh and low cut provide plenty of flexibility for on-court action while the sleek overall design makes for a must-have shoe off the court.

In an age where every release seems to shoot for the stars when it comes to colorways and innovative designs, sometimes going back to basics is just what sneakerheads need.
