FAQs
Does the Nike Kobe 9 Low Protro fit true to size?
This model fits slightly small. We recommend taking a half size larger than your usual size for the best fit.
Can I use these for outdoor basketball?
While designed for court performance, the outsoles are best preserved on indoor surfaces. Frequent outdoor use may wear down the traction pattern faster.
How should I clean the exterior of the shoe?
Use a soft brush with a mild soap and water solution. Gently scrub the affected areas and air dry.
Are these suitable for people with wide feet?
The Kobe 9 features a streamlined, performance-oriented fit. If you have wider feet, the recommendation to size up by a half size is especially important.
What does Protro mean?
Protro stands for 'Performance Retro,' meaning the classic design has been updated with modern materials and performance technology.
Troubleshooting
The shoe feels too tight in the toe box
Ensure you are wearing the correct size; if the problem persists, consider using a thinner sock or a shoe stretcher for a subtle adjustment.
Loss of traction on the court
Wipe the outsoles with a damp cloth to remove accumulated dust and debris that can compromise grip.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure the best experience, start by wearing a slightly thinner sock while breaking in the pair to account for the snug fit. For care, avoid machine washing or drying, which can damage the cushioning materials and adhesives. Instead, clean the upper using a soft brush and mild soap with water. Air dry away from direct sunlight or high-heat sources to maintain the shape and color integrity. Store your shoes in a cool, dry place to prevent material degradation.
