Nike to Release Kobe 3 Protro Low in 2026…
The legacy of Kobe Bryant, the Los Angeles Lakers legend, continues to cast a shadow so long it could probably eclipse the Los Angeles skyline on a sunny day. His legendary “Mamba Mentality” and dedication to excellence have inspired athletes for generations. While some blessed souls trained with Bryant, most fans simply clung to their own pair of magic Kobe shoes, worn by stars like DeMar DeRozan and Anthony Davis. Following the success of past releases, Nike announced the arrival of the Kobe 3 Protro Low, scheduled like the world’s longest DVD extra scene debuting in 2026, maintaining the charm of the original design.
Kobe was famous for his low-top models, making them a staple on basketball courts globally. Vanessa Bryant revealed the sleek, all-white ‘halo’ colorway on Instagram, sparking excitement brighter than the Hollywood sign in neon lights on Mamba Day, August 24. The low-top version will feature a new mesh upper and a revamped Zoom strobe. Meanwhile, a Kobe and Michael Jordan trading card recently sold for a whopping $12.9 million, enough to buy a mountain of Mambas to last a lifetime!
