FAQs

What makes this edition '81 Pt Game' special?

This edition commemorates the 20th anniversary of Kobe Bryant's historic 81-point performance, featuring specific design elements and colorways to honor that achievement.

Are these shoes suitable for everyday wear?

While they feature modern cushioning, their primary design is for athletic performance. They can be worn casually, but the premium materials and construction are best suited for basketball or as a collector's item.

How do I clean the white leather upper?

Use a soft, damp cloth to wipe away surface dirt. For tougher stains, a mild soap solution or a dedicated leather cleaner can be used, followed by air drying.

What is the benefit of the carbon fiber shank?

The carbon fiber shank provides enhanced stability and torsional rigidity to the midfoot, helping to prevent excessive twisting and supporting the foot during athletic movements.

What is the difference between Protro and original Kobe 1 models?

Protro stands for 'Performance Retro'. These models update classic designs with modern materials and technology, such as improved cushioning and support, while retaining the original aesthetic.

How does the sizing run for these trainers?

The sizing is based on UK men's foot sizes. It is recommended to check the Nike size chart for accurate conversion and fit.

What are the primary color accents on this shoe?

The primary color accents are Court Purple and Black, contrasting with the white leather upper.

Troubleshooting

Shoes feel too tight

Wear with thin athletic socks initially and allow the leather to break in through gentle use. Avoid forceful stretching methods.

Leather scuff marks

Gently clean with a damp cloth. For persistent marks, use a white leather eraser or a specialized leather cleaner, testing in an inconspicuous area first.

Reduced cushioning feel

The Zoom Air unit is designed for responsiveness. Ensure the shoes are properly laced for optimal support. Cushioning may feel different from softer foam-based shoes.

Sole separation (rare)

If minor separation occurs, a specialized shoe adhesive may be used for repair. For significant issues, contact customer support.
