While things might have started slow for the return of the Nike Kobe line, it will be full steam ahead throughout 2024. With classics such as the Kobe 4 Protro Philly, Kobe 6 Protro Italian Camo, and the Kobe 8 Protro Venice Beach, Nike, along with Vanessa Bryant, is set to ensure plenty of future Kobe releases. For Holiday 2024, we can confirm that along with the Kobe 9 Elite High Protro Christmas, the next addition to the Gift Of Mamba series will drop.
Nike Basketball celebrates the Gift Of Mamba for the second year. Following the Kobe 4 Protro, the Kobe 9 Low EM will don the black and metallic gold color scheme. This release will also mark the first time the EM version of the Kobe 9 will receive the Protro treatment. The sneaker will sport an all-black design, complete with an engineered mesh upper, faux snakeskin detailing, React cushioning, and Kobe's signature in metallic gold on the heel.
The Nike Kobe 9 Low EM Gift Of Mamba will release in December 2024 through Nike, SNKRS, and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men's sizing, retail is set at $180. Keep it locked to the Sole Retriever mobile app to stay updated on the latest sneaker releases, raffles, and news.
