This colorway commemorates Kobe Bryant's historic 81-point performance on January 22, 2006, celebrating the 20th anniversary of that event.
While the materials are durable, these shoes are primarily designed for indoor court performance. Frequent use on abrasive outdoor surfaces can significantly reduce their lifespan and cushioning effectiveness.
Use a soft, damp cloth for general cleaning. For tougher spots, a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush can be used. Always air dry.
The carbon fiber shank provides structural integrity to the midsole, enhancing torsional rigidity and offering crucial midfoot support during athletic movements.
Protro stands for 'Performance Retro'. These shoes take iconic designs from Kobe's past and update them with modern technology and materials for improved on-court performance.
This specific release is available in UK Men's sizes, with the current model being a UK 13. Other sizes may be available in sibling product listings.
The Nike Kobe 1 Protro generally offers a standard fit. Individuals with very wide feet might find them snug, and breaking them in or considering a size up might be necessary.
Wear thinner socks or consider a half-size larger if available. Break-in period may also alleviate tightness.
Ensure laces are tied securely using a double knot. Consider replacing laces with a textured or thicker pair for better grip.
The Zoom Air unit is designed for longevity but may feel less responsive after extensive use. Ensure the shoe is not exposed to extreme temperatures which can affect the cushioning.
Creasing is natural with leather products, especially with activity. Using shoe trees can help minimize creases when not in use.
Setup: These are ready-to-wear athletic shoes. Ensure you have selected the correct size for optimal performance and comfort. It is recommended to wear them for a short period initially to break them in.
Compatibility: Designed primarily for basketball, these trainers are suitable for indoor court surfaces. They are best suited for adult male athletes.
