Cop the Nike Kobe 9 Low Protro EM Mambacita
After Kobe Bryant's passing, his signature sneaker line has been able to pay tribute to not only Kobe himself but also his daughter Gigi through a series of Mambacita colorways. After the Nike Kobe 6 and Kobe 8 were given makeovers in honor of Bryant's late daughter, the Nike Kobe 9 Low EM is the next sneaker under the Mambacita banner.
The Nike Kobe 9 Low Proto EM Mambacita will be released on May 1, 2025, through Nike SNKRS and the Mamba and Mambacita Sports Foundation online. Available in men's and GS sizing, the retail price is set at $180 and $120, respectively. Here is everything you need to know to buy the Nike Kobe 9 Low Proto EM Mambacita on release day.
Where to Purchase the Nike Kobe 9 Low Proto EM Mambacita
Previous Nike Kobe releases under the Mambacita moniker have been exclusive to Nike SNKRS and the Mamba and Mambacita Sports Foundation website. Starting with the latter of the two, the Mamba and Mambacita Sports Foundation site will drop the pair first-come-first-served at a random time on May 1, 2025. In the past, we've seen the release limited to invite-only, meaning you need to get a link sent via email to purchase pairs on the site.
Nike SNKRS will release the pair on May 1, 2025, at 10:00 AM ET (7 AM PT).. Ensure your app is updated on your mobile device and you have the correct shipping/billing information. Nike will use a draw to determine winners, meaning you will have 10 minutes to enter to win the pair. After this time, winners will be selected within a few minutes.
