Nike Kobe 8 Protro "University Red" HF9550-600

The Nike Kobe 8 Protro “University Red” revisits the iconic Kobe 8 with modern upgrades, delivering a performance-driven design that honours Kobe Bryant’s profound influence on basketball.

Crafted with an engineered mesh upper, the shoe provides a flexible and supportive fit, adapting to the foot for optimal comfort and secure containment during fast-paced games. The introduction of Nike React foam elevates the midsole, offering improved responsiveness and long-lasting durability. This enhancement equips players for the demands of high-intensity play.

The outsole retains the dependable herringbone traction, now enhanced with a diamond-inspired pattern for greater grip. This ensures stability during sharp movements, quick pivots, and explosive drives to the basket. Details such as Kobe’s emblem and signature serve as a reminder of his legacy and the Mamba Mentality.

The University Red and White colourway is bold and purposeful, symbolising energy, determination, and focus—qualities that defined Kobe’s approach to the game. This striking combination further reinforces the connection to his legendary career.

The Nike Kobe 8 Protro “University Red” balances thoughtful updates with a nod to basketball history, delivering a shoe that meets the demands of the court while celebrating an enduring legacy.
