Kobe Bryant broke into the NBA in 1996, fresh from the high school courts of Lower Merion, PA. Bryant quickly established himself as a star in L.A., reminding people the hype was something to believe when it came to his game. Remember Bryant's early days with this 1997 home jersey. Reproduced in perfect detail, Mitchell & Ness pays close attention while designing each individual piece, in an attempt to re-create each jersey exactly as it was back in the day.
