Ever since Steve Ballmer bought the Los Angeles Clippers in 2014, the organization has done nothing but smart moves. However, the Clippers lucked out signing free agent John Wall this summer.
The 5x NBA All-Star has struggled with injuries for the past few years but is healthy and ready to compete now. Yesterday was NBA Media Day, and every player brought their best pair of kicks. Except Wall literally brought a bag full of rare shoes to test out at various photo shoots.
Wall has partnered with several sneaker companies during his 12 years with the association. However, the veteran keeper recently signed with Nike which gives him the option to wear shoes from Kobe Bryant’s signature line.
Wall amazed his teammates by bringing a bag full of rare Kobes to Media Day. Like the fictional nanny, Marry Poppins, and her magic bag, Wall continued to release stunning shoes. Below is everything you need to know about Wall’s impressive collection.
Nike Kobe collection
Wall’s collection from Kobe was impressive. It would be a tall order to document his entire sneaker collection. Luckily, the former Slam Dunk champ only brought eight pairs.

Let’s start with the kicks Wall has on his feet in the image above. Wall wears the Nike Air Zoom Huarache 2K4 in the “All-Star” colorway. The red, white and blue shoes were last released in 2016 at a retail price of $150. They now have an average resale price of $297.
The first three shoes in the top left row are all Players Exclusive (PE) colorways that have never been released to the public. We see two pairs of Kobe 5 Protros and a pair of Kobe 6 Protro shoes.
From there we have the Kobe 4 ‘Prelude’ and another pair of Air Zoom Huarache 2K4 shoes. Finally, the bottom left row shows the Kobe 5 “Prelude” and the Kobe 7 “What The”.
Wall doesn’t play fair with his sneaker collection, and we hope to see him unfair on the court again this season. The 32-year-old has talent. He just needs a little luck with his health. Stay locked into FanNation Kicks all year for your sneaker news.
