Kobe Bryant's signature sneaker line with Nike continues to be celebrated and revered on and off the basketball court. The Protro series, which retrofits classic Kobe models with modern-day performance upgrades, has been a significant hit among sneakerheads and athletes. While we know the Kobe 9 will get the Protro treatment in the coming months thanks to the Halo series and retros of the Masterpiece and Christmas colorways, Elden Monitors and House of Heat have reported that the Kobe 9 Protro What The will return next year.
The original Kobe 9 Elite High What The was released in 2015, capturing the attention of sneakerheads with its bold and eclectic design. This version of the Kobe 9 Elite High Protro will retain the mismatched look of its predecessor, featuring a Flyknit upper integrated with Flywire technology for enhanced support and stability. The design showcases a vibrant mix of colors, with reddish hues dominating the lateral side and blues and greens on the medial side. Kobe's crest atop the tongue and the sockliner display a wild multi-color pattern, adding to the chaotic yet cohesive aesthetic.
