Nike Kobe 8 Protro “Halo” Official Images
After generating immense anticipation and offering sneak peeks of upcoming color variations for months, Nike has formally disclosed the inaugural silhouette that will reinvigorate the Kobe Bryant brand, debuting on Mamba Day this approaching August 24th. The grand unveiling took place during the SNKRS “Live From the Archive” episode on August 10th. The previously showcased “Triple White” iteration of the Kobe 8 Protro has now been designated as the “Halo” color scheme, a collection curated by Vanessa Bryant that will mark the introduction of Kobe Protro models in the forthcoming years.
A palette of pristine white shades envelops the entirety of this low-top design, producing an angelic ambiance that resonates through one of Bryant’s most cherished signature styles. In terms of the specific technical enhancements to the silhouette, the original 2012 model’s Lunarlon midsole has been exchanged for a React foam drop-in construction. Enthusiasts who frequently wore the original pair noted that while comfortable, the previously mentioned cushioning configuration tended to degrade over time, leading to a loss of its responsive quality. The incorporation of the esteemed React cushioning system within the Kobe line brings about a more robust and enduring cushioning experience underfoot.
The Nike Kobe 8 Protro “Halo” is set to launch on August 23rd via the SNKRS app. As we eagerly anticipate the inclusion of the Kobe 1, 4, 5, and 6 models in the inaugural collection, take pleasure in exploring the official images of this pair below.
