Designed to give you the most responsive feel, the Kobe VIII Protro continues that legacy by keeping an engineered mesh upper that molds to your foot and a traction pad that provides extra security. The VIII Protro evolves the original design with the addition of Nike React foam to provide greater responsiveness and durability.

Cushioned and Connected
The addition of a Nike React foam insert in the midsole lets you experience a greater responsiveness. It'll have you feeling connected to the court throughout the season.
Engineered Upper
Engineered mesh on the upper is soft and pliable, wrapping around your foot and conforming to its shape.
Cut and Move
Traditional herringbone traction paired with a diamond-inspired pattern gives you extra security and grip. They're located on the forefoot and heel, where you naturally plant your foot.
