Los Angeles Lakers legend Kobe Bryant's signature Nike sneaker line has made a roaring comeback in recent years. The Nike Kobe line has expanded beyond basketball into different sports, and supply has finally caught up with demand.

Not only is it easier than ever to purchase a pair of the iconic basketball shoes at retail price, but some Nike Kobe models are discounted online. Below is a breakdown of five kicks that fans can purchase online at well below retail price.
