The comeback of Kobe's signature sneakers is currently in full swing! After the recent release of the Kobe 8 Protro "Halo", the focus is now on the fourth edition of the late basketball legend. As part of this initiative, we can expect a black Mamba as early as this year's Christmas season. 

This version of the Nike Kobe 4 Protro presents a simple, deep black aesthetic that is enhanced by snakeskin elements on the front overlays, swooshes and collar. The base, on the other hand, falls back on a soft suede, while perforations in the forefoot area provide the necessary breathability. Other important elements are the Kobe logos on the tongue, the legendary "24" on the heel and his golden signature on the TPU elements. 

Even though no official images are available yet, it is already assumed that the Nike Kobe 4 Protro "Black Mamba" will be released on 26 December for a price of 180€. Download our free Grailify app to make sure you don't miss the drop.
