Product description
TLDR: The Nike Kobe 5 Protro ‘Year of the Mamba’ celebrates Kobe Bryant's legacy with an eye-catching University Red colourway, gold accents and a snake motif. The sneaker will be released exclusively in China on 18 January 2025 and costs €210.
With the Nike Kobe 5 Protro ‘Year of the Mamba’, Nike is launching a sneaker that combines Kobe Bryant's ‘Black Mamba’ character with the upcoming Chinese Year of the Snake. This special edition combines a bold base in University Red with black and gold accents reminiscent of Bryant's legacy and his agility, precision and strength.
The design is rich in detail: golden snake motifs frame the Swoosh, while a velvet-like texture with a scale-like pattern enhances the upper. Special Kobe logos and Year of the Snake elements round off the theme. The metallic gold accents on the branding and toebox give the shoe a luxurious touch.
For the first time, the Year of the Mamba theme is officially tied to the Chinese New Year, making this release a historic moment for Nike Basketball. This collection follows previous special editions that celebrated the Chinese zodiac in Kobe Bryant models such as the Kobe 7 and 8.
