well... its called Shozoku... and to be honest... I really dont know....
I think its more of a description than anything... not like a symbol...
its something you wear. not a brand. feel me?
I think you need to get into Nike headquarters to find out how this originated.
back then Nike FootBall gear, it sometimes had this logo....

it was more like a description...
but Kobe was referred to as the black mamba. so i believe they might have given him that symbol by tweaking it a bit and making it look like a target also
and so you have it...
but i may be wrong....

Its starting to make sense...The Black Mamba, the animal that he used to describe his play to journalists and his eventual nickname, is Kill Bill related. Uma Thurman's character codename was the Black Mamba.
The Kill Bill movies were very popular movie in 2003-2004 and this is right around the time he signed with Nike and he caught his rape case. Maybe he felt betrayed when everybody doubted him during this time and used the Kill Bill movies as sorta like inspiration kinda like how alot of athletes use the movie " Rocky" as insipration.
Also maybe the Bruce Lees are sorta Kill Bill related too or Kill Bill is Game of Death related?

You got it (although not "related", more like a tribute to Game of Death ).
I mean, most OG's would recognize that (altered) yellow jumpsuit Uma wore anywhere (and don't forget the Onitsuka Tiger kicks) ...

The fit is on the V is much better IMO.
I purchased most of my IVs in an 11, but really i'd be an 11.25 if that existed
The fit isn't as tight and an 11 is absolutely perfect for me, especially as I have wide feet and the V provides better room in the toe box.
The fit is about the only reason I can find to edge the V out over the IV.
