TLDR: The Nike Kobe 9 Elite Protro ‘Masterpiece’ returns in its original form after eleven years. The iconic multicoloured Flyknit upper, the quilted leather tongue and the Lunarlon cushioning remain - only the Protro updates improve the performance technology. The sneaker will be available on 20 February 2025 for €240. The Nike Kobe 9 Elite Protro series is picking up speed and with the ‘Masterpiece’ colourway, Nike is bringing back one of the most legendary models from 2014. Originally designed by Eric Avar in collaboration with Kobe Bryant, the sneaker stands out with its eye-catching Flyknit upper in various colours that contrast with the black base. Metallic silver details and the striking white Swoosh branding create a sophisticated look.
The shoe remains true to the original look, but has been given a performance update with modern cushioning technology. The Lunarlon midsole provides even more comfort and energy return, while the red stitching on the heel pays homage to Kobe's comeback after his Achilles tendon injury.
