Paying tribute to Bobbito Garcia and his Puerto Rican heritage is the main goal of this sneaker. Just take a look at the Puerto Rican flag at the heel and you will realize that. Even the colorway of the sneaker follows the Puerto Rican color.

The Under Armour “Kool Bob Love” Prototype shoe is Under Armour’s first salvo for the 2010 basketball sneaker world. It may be just a prototype but for sure, it has kept a lot of heads turning, and will find a way into your homes once it gets produced.

This shoe is a sneaker and streetball icon’s take on shoe design. Not surprising considering that Bobbito Garcia has worked with sneaker people from Nike to KIX. And now it’s his turn to style up his own sneaker design.

The Under Armour “Kool Bob Love” Prototype sneaker has a clean white perforated leather upper. It is accented by the colors of Garcia’s Puerto Rican heritage so you will find a lot of blue on the tongue and the midsole, and lots of reds on the logo and the midsole.

You will find the red, blue and white Puerto Rican flag on the heel, striking an impressive image on the white background. Garcia is known in many names—Kook Bob Love, Boogie Bob and lots more. But when it comes to sneakers, he will be remembered for the Under Armour “Kool Bob Love” Prototype.
