The Nike Kobe 9 Elite Low Protro Halo honors the late basketball legend Kobe Bryant with performance-driven features and an angelic, white colorway. Released on the athlete’s birthday and Mamba Day, this sneaker boasts an all-white color scheme that immortalizes Kobe. The Flyknit upper creates a locked-in feel without sacrificing breathability or flexibility, while React Foam provides responsive cushioning in the midsole. Another performance upgrade is the exterior grip on the rubber outsole, supporting the foot’s natural movements. The iridescent detailing on the Swoosh logos brings cohesion to the low-top design. Originally released on August 23, 2024, the sneaker retailed at $240. The Nike Kobe 9 Elite Low Protro revives Kobe Bryant's ninth signature model in a pristine finish, utilizing white Flyknit on the upper with tonal no-sew overlays for lightweight support, Flywire technology for midfoot lockdown, and a carbon fiber heel counter for lateral stability.
