Nike’s Kobe Bryant signature line ranks at the top when it comes to the most popular on-court sneakers, whether it’s classic retros like the Nike Kobe 4 and Nike Kobe 5, or the latest Nike Kobe NXT. The brand pressed pause on all such releases in the aftermath Kobe’s tragic death, but rumors suggest that an all-new “Lakers” Nike Kobe 5 Protro will soon be headed to retailers. 

The “Lakers” Nike Kobe 5 Protro, featuring the familiar purple, gold and black color scheme, were first introduced by Anthony Davis during the All Star Game. In addition to the obvious Lakers-inspired design, the kicks also feature special edition LA insoles as well as the Black Mamba’s signature in gold on the heel.

According to sneaker source @Zsneakerheadz, the Nike Kobe 5 Protro “Lakers” is scheduled to release on March 26th for the retail price $175. Continue scrolling for a closer look at the ficial photos.
