Black Mamba, meet black Forces. Nike’s lineup of Kobe Air Force 1 styles is growing with a “Triple Black” colorway for 2026, shown here for the first time courtesy of @prm.cotd.

The sneaker follows the same guiding design as Kobe AF1s like the “Forever White,” “Court Purple,” and upcoming “Army,” arriving in a monochrome palette with a scaly, snakeskin-inspired finish. The sneaker isn’t breaking new ground, but Kobe’s Black Mamba nickname paired with “Triple Black” makes for built-in storytelling. Kobe’s signature sheath logo appears on the lateral side of the heel, while his 8 and 24 jersey numbers are stitched onto the left and right backtabs, respectively.

No release date for the Kobe Air Force 1 “Triple Black” has been announced yet, but a Spring 2026 drop seems most likely. See first-look images below and check back on our Sneaker Release Dates page for further updates.
