TLDR: The Nike Kobe 3 Low Protro “Grinch” transfers the legendary neon look onto the lower-cut reinterpretation of Kobe Bryant’s third signature sneaker. The pair is currently expected to launch in September 2026 for 190€.

Following the return of the Nike Kobe 3 Protro, Nike is expanding the silhouette with its first low-top version. The Nike Kobe 3 Low Protro “Grinch” arrives in a colour palette that inevitably recalls the iconic Kobe 6. However, Nike has yet to officially confirm the “Grinch” nickname.

Almost the entire upper is dressed in vibrant Electric Green. Breathable mesh sits beneath the Kobe 3’s signature TPU cage, with the bright shade continuing across the toe. Matching laces and a green lining complete the nearly monochromatic appearance.

Around the heel, the neon finish fades into a darker Stadium Green tone that extends across the midsole and translucent outsole. An oversized Swoosh wraps around the lateral heel, whilst a smaller version appears on the medial side. Glossy Kobe logos on the tongue and heel complete the design.

Beneath the striking upper is the silhouette’s updated Protro performance setup. Full-length Zoom Strobel cushioning is combined with Cushlon 3.0 foam, whilst redesigned multidirectional traction is built for quick changes of direction. The lower cut also provides additional freedom of movement on the court.
