Kobe Bryant Kobe 8 Protro "Venice Beach"
Basketball Shoes
Originally released in 2013 as part of Kobe's signature lineup, this colorway draws inspiration from Cali summers and one of the most historic landmarks of LA streetball—Venice Beach. The courts hold a special significance as that's where the Kobe 8 initially debuted. The vibrant design creates a connection to the spirited neighborhood landscape of Venice Beach. Whether you're hooping on the street, hardwood or just staying true to your love for Kobe, this low-profile look helps you take over the game in true Mamba fashion.
Soft 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 at the forefoot and heel gives you squeaky court bite you can hear when making hard moves and cuts. It’s located where your foot is normally planted, giving you a secure grip. Diamond-esque shapes run along the edge of the outsole into the heel.
Smooth, Responsive Ride
Nike React technology is a lightweight, durable foam that delivers a smooth, responsive ride.
Molded plastic at the heel offers a secure fit.
Arched midfoot plate helps keep the shoe supportive and stable.
We padded the tongue in the center, so you can tighten your laces without feeling pinched.
Style Code: FQ3548-001
Color: STADIUM GREY/METALLIC SILVER-TOUR YELLOW
