Kobe 9 Elite Low Protro 'Halo'

With every Protro, a new beginning arises. The Kobe 9 Elite Protro 'Halo' is a symbol of Kobe's dedication to always getting better—and it's our challenge to hoopers to push your game to new levels. Proving that even a masterpiece can be improved on, the addition of Nike React in the midsole means greater responsiveness that'll have you feeling connected to the court. To mimic the natural movements of your foot, we adjusted the traction by adding an exterior grip to help you stop in an instant. And it comes complete with a Flyknit upper for a seamless, lightweight feel while still providing a locked-in fit. You're welcome. As a tribute to Kobe's everlasting impact on and off the court, the Halo series launches every year on his birthday—23 August. Mamba Forever.
