I'm with you that it is the wrong date. But in general, it's not best to base your answer on just the fact that wikipedia says so.

Actually...No, Nike didnt mess up on anything. The 6-11-96 stands for the date Kobe announced he was going to the NBA. Then 2 weeks later(6-26-96) he gotdrafted. The only shoes that have the "correct date" are the sz 13s. Why u ask? yep, u got it... because he was the 13th overall pick. Dont believeme? Go check any sz 13...

Nike Zoom Kobe IV Draft Day
The [Draft Day Nike Zoom Kobe IV] hit retail this weekend with one "little" snag, the draft day on the heel tab is wrong. All of the Draft Day NikeZoom Kobe IVs that are currently at retail feature the date 6.11.96 on the heel tab. Unfortunately, the draft actually took place on June 26th of 1996. Nike isreportedly going to release a second wave of "Draft Day" Nike Zoom Kobe IVs that will feature the correct date as seen on the sneaker above.

so if I order from Eastbay today, will I get 6-11-96 or 6-26-96?
I know someone posted they got 6-11-96 from EB,wonder if they got the "2nd wave" yet and sending out whichever one.
