Fans of Nike Kobes were left out to dry for a few years after his untimely passing. Even after Vanessa Bryant reached an agreement with Nike to continue Kobe’s signature sneaker line, releases were spaced out and scarce. Luckily that has changed as not only have there been an increase in Kobe Protro releases from his on-court sneakers, but new lifestyle entries with Air Force 1s. Continuing with the slew of Kobe-branded AF1s, Nike has plans to drop a Summit White Daybreak colorway of the Kobe Air Force 1 Low.
Pictured is a speculative mock-up of the sneaker as there are no images of the shoe at this time. We do know the color scheme is set to feature summit white and daybreak, giving us a solid idea of what to expect. Most of the model should be covered in summit white hues, with daybreak, a light purple hue, accenting select parts. This includes the Swoosh, laces, heel tab, tongue tag text, AIR branding on the sole unit, and the outsole. Expect the rest of the sneaker to come in summit white.
As mentioned before, Nike is going all in on lifestyle models for the Kobe line. Alongside Protro versions of the AF1, which add ReactX foam insoles for added comfort and premium leather, a handful of standard Kobe Forces are hitting shelves, including Cool Grey, Cargo Khaki, and a two-pack honoring Lower Merion Heights. Expect to see Protro colorways in 2026 like the Linen University Blue, Black Lemon Venom, Sail Pinksicle, and Work Blue Metallic Gold.
