    With Jalen Brunson taking the NBA offseason to relax and Caitlin Clark switching her footwear to the Caitlin 1, Dallas Wings guard Arike Ogunbowale is currently leading the charge when it comes to Kobe PEs. After breaking out three pairs earlier in the season, Ogunbowale broke out a fourth Nike Kobe Protro PE ahead of the All-Star break, this time channeling Brunson’s winning ways.

    The New Face of Nike Kobe PEs

    The Arike Ogunbowale Nike Kobe 5 Protro PE is the third time Ogunbowale has laced up an exclusive Kobe 5 Protro PE this season, with a Kobe 6 Protro PE in snakeskin to boot. On the latest pair, Ogunbowale opted for a split vibe, with a black base disappearing beneath an orange structure on the lateral side and a blue structure on the medial side.

    On both shoes, the Swoosh flips colors with the side panel structure, adding a blue outline to the black Swoosh on the lateral side and an orange border on the medial side. The Kobe sheath logos on the tongue keep up the two-face energy, with more orange on the lateral and blue on the medial.

    Arike Ogunbowale Nike Kobe 5 Protro PE Details

    The Arike Ogunbowale Nike Kobe 5 Protro PE isn’t scheduled to hit retail, so don’t get your hopes up, Knicks fans. But with four PEs during the first half of the season, expect to see more from Ogunbowale’s Nike Kobe connection after the All-Star break.
