Nike Kobe A.D. Protro Basketball Shoes

Few players demanded precision the way Kobe Bryant did, treating every cut and release as an extension of relentless preparation. The Kobe A.D. Protro Basketball Shoes carry that standard forward, rebuilt for the pace and pressure of today's game while staying true to the shoe that dropped in 2016. The retooled build keeps the elite traction and lightweight construction that made the original a favourite among sharp, shifty players, with every detail reflecting the footwork and killer instinct the Mamba built his legacy on.A puck-shaped pod of ZoomX foam in the forefoot pairs with a React midsole to deliver explosive responsiveness on every plant, cut and attack. Dynamic Flywire cables lock the foot down in a low profile build, while a widened forefoot brings a more comfortable, natural fit through hard cuts and quick first steps. This is a shoe built to keep your footwork sharp from first touch to final bucket.Kobe A.D.
