This year, Nike has remastered their Kobe 9 model with a new Protro edition. So far, we have seen a number of OG colorways lined up for release in 2025, now including the bright “Perspective” pair, slated for a low-top release in the holiday season.
Nike has been hard at work bringing us plenty of new Kobe releases after the extended hiatus due to issues with Bryant’s estate. With a new agreement formed with Vanessa Bryant in 2022, Kobe sneaker releases are finally back in full swing, with the last year bringing us plenty of heat in both new and original colors. Among the new releases in the past few months has been the Protro edition of the Kobe 9, which has plenty more styles slated for the rest of the year.
This week, we got news of another OG colorway from the Kobe 9 that will see a release this year; 2014’s “Perspective” style. Originally released in the shoe’s ultra-high cut version, the 2025 pair will be a low-top release. With information and a mockup from @zSneakerheadz, we can expect this pair to keep its original colorful look, mixing a bright turquoise knit with Volt green accents and a black heel counter.
