With the blessing of Vanessa Bryant, Kobe’s signature line of basketball sneakers continues to thrive after the basketball star’s unfortunate passing back in 2020.
Nike has several Kobe releases locked and loaded to fire off into the market over the coming months. The most recent to drop is this Kobe 8 Protro that serves as a reminder of Bryant’s legendary career with the Los Angeles Lakers. The sneakers don a color scheme matching the home uniforms of the Lakers, with white covering much of the upper and purple and gold adding flavor to the branding. It’s a simple, yet interesting color palette that has found a home on Kobe’s signature sneakers over the years.
The Nike Kobe 8 Protro “Lakers Home” is available now through Nike’s official website and other Nike Basketball retailers, retailing at $180. Grab a look at the sneakers below and grab a pair to lace up for yourself to show your respect to one of the greatest athletes to ever play the game of basketball.
