NBA’s best took the courts last night during the All-Star game and many new shoes were revealed. One of the best was worn by Anthony Davis, the Nike Kobe 5 Protro “Lakers”. 

Following the tragic loss of Kobe Bryant, it’s been a thought in many minds on how his Nike partnership will pan out in the future. Whether AD wearing a Lakers themed colorway of the Nike Kobe 5 Protro means anything about the partnership, we definitely can expect the very fresh edition to be releasing soon, maybe even as soon as next month.

Equipped with a synthetic upper in Lakers purple, black also plays a role across the shoe. Gold trimming adds into the Los Angeles theme while a black snakeskin print graces the heel. Silver Kobe branding shines on the tongue as a white midsole and icy translucent outsole finishes off the coveted design.
