The Nike Kobe 8 Protro 'University Red' is crafted from crimson engineered mesh with contrasting white accents, including an embroidered Swoosh and Kobe Bryant's signature sheath logo on the tongue and back heel. Lightweight cushioning comes courtesy of a full-length drop-in React foam midsole. Underfoot, the white rubber outsole features a herringbone traction pattern and an exposed carbon fiber shank.
