An Updated Icon
The Men’s Nike Kobe 1 Protro is Kobe Bryant’s first signature basketball shoe, now updated to modern performance standards. Originally released in 2004, the Kobe 1 had been upgraded to ensure that it’s still a formidable on-court contender today. By just looking at the Protro (“Performance Retro”), you’re unlikely to see a difference compared to the original. The Protro features subtle updates to maintain the classic look, including a slightly slimmed-down upper and a full-length Zoom Air unit that offers more dynamic and long-lasting comfort on the court. Simply put, the Kobe 1 Protro offers the best of both worlds with a classic look and modern comfort.
Always OG
The Kobe 1 Protro is predominantly featured in the silhouette’s original colorways released in 2004 and worn on court by the Black Mamba himself.

Whatever the colorway, you’ll be rocking one of the most classic Nike Basketball models of all time with all the advantages of modern technology.
