The Kobe 3 Protro Halo returns as a modern performance tribute with a special release timed for August 23, what would have been Kobe Bryant’s 47th birthday. Updated for today’s game, the reissue features full-length Zoom Strobel cushioning, a Cushlon 3.0 midsole, an advanced traction pattern, and a mesh-backed upper that preserves the original basketball net cage design. Diamond-inspired details also honor Bryant’s eldest daughter, Natalia’s middle name, Diamanté, embedding a personal story into the sneaker’s design.

Set at a retail price of two hundred ten dollars, the Halo edition is positioned as both an elite performance shoe and a cultural homage. Its launch coincides with Nike’s annual Mamba Day celebrations and the Mamba League Invitational, reinforcing the shoe’s connection to legacy and community. By blending heritage with innovation, the Kobe 3 Protro Halo bridges past excellence with the demands of the modern game.
