The Kobe 3 Protro is on the way, and the promo duties are being handled by none other than Kobe Bryant's eldest daughter, Natalia.
Scheduled to drop on August 23 on SNKRS, the shoe has been heavily anticipated in the sports and sneaker world. Following her Nike commercial with New York Knicks star Jalen Brunson, the model took to Instagram to show off her pair and how she styled them. Captioning the post "The Kobe 3 Protro. Launching in SNKRS 8.23 @nikebasketball," Natalia could be seen wearing the shoe with a pair of white Nike socks.
She teamed her shoes with a cream Nike jacket that featured Kobe's legendary Mamba logo on the side. Additional pictures included Natalia giving a close-up shot of the shoe with a magnifying glass, and there were plenty of supportive comments left by her friends and family. "Yesssss 😍😍😍," wrote one friend, with another adding, "gorgeous 😍😍😍."

As far as the Nike Kobe 3 Protro goes, per Nike, the shoe "is designed to meet the needs of the modern game while paying tribute to Kobe Bryant’s legacy and extending his legendary Mamba Mentality to the next generation of athletes." Additionally, this reintroduction marks Nike’s most extensive Kobe Protro effort to date, taking the original court shoe Kobe wore during his 2007–08 MVP season, and updating it with current technology.
Features include a full-length Zoom Strobel and a Cushlon 3.0 midsole, along with an improved traction pattern and a more breathable upper.
The Nike Kobe 3 Protro will be available to shop on August 23 on SNKRS and at select retail locations.
