The Nike Kobe 8 Protro “Halo” Releases on Kobe’s Birthday

Nike Basketball will also be bringing back the Nike Kobe 8 Protro on Kobe Byrant’s birthday as the Mamba line continues.

The fan-favorite silhouette, which was initially released in 2012, will return in a slew of colorways including a “Halo” aka “Triple White” outfit. The latest Nike Kobe 8 Protro “Halo” iteration will feature updated tech and modern materials dressed in the aforementioned all-white color scheme, similar to the “Last Chapter” release from a decade ago.

Further elevating the pair are the embroidered Swooshes and Kobe logos on the tongues with a plastic heel counter for stability and a black carbon fiber midfoot shank plate, as well as a full-length Lunarlon midsole and Zoom Air cushioning.

Look for the Nike Kobe 8 Protro “Halo” to release on August 23 at select Nike Basketball retailers and SNKRS. The retail price tag is set at $180 USD. Additionally, this will be the first time the Kobe 8 Protro will release in full-family sizing.
