‘Captain America: Brave New World’ Costume Designer Used Kobe Bryant High-Top Sneakers to Build Anthony Mackie’s Boots


"Captain America: Brave New World" costume designer Gersha Phillips used Kobe Bryant High-top sneakers.

He joined the MCU as Sam Wilson/Falcon back in 2014’s “Captain America: The Winter Soldier,” opposite Chris Evans as the title character. This time around, Sam must put aside his differences with U.S. president Thaddeus “Thunderbolt” Ross (Harrison Ford, taking over for the late William Hurt) to investigate a conspiracy theory tied to an assassination attempt and the global battle for adamantium possession. Marvel’s Ryan Meinerding, head of visual development, was a close collaborator when it came to building the Captain’s two suits.
