Kobe’s comeback from a torn Achilles inspired generations of past, present and future hoopers to keep fighting. The Kobe IX Protro brings back the shoe that supported the Black Mamba during his triumphant return to the floor and gives it an upgrade. A Flyknit upper complements a springy, responsive Nike React foam in an extra high-top with an exaggerated collar that performs like Kobe's low-top masterpiece.
