FAQs
Are these shoes suitable for wide feet?
The Nike Kobe 3 Low Protro generally features a standard fit. If you have wider feet, it is recommended to try them on before purchasing or consider shoes specifically designed for wider foot profiles.
What is the main difference between Protro models?
Protro models are retro releases that often incorporate modern materials and performance enhancements while maintaining the original design aesthetic. They aim to blend heritage with current athletic technology.
Can these shoes be worn for running?
While they offer good responsiveness, these shoes are optimized for basketball movements. For dedicated running, a shoe designed specifically for running would be more appropriate.
How do I know if I have the correct size?
Ensure there is about a thumb's width of space between your longest toe and the front of the shoe when standing. Your heel should feel secure without slipping excessively.
What is the warranty on Nike shoes?
Nike typically offers a limited warranty against manufacturing defects. Specific terms and duration can vary, and it's best to check the official Nike website or the retailer's policy for details.
How do I clean the Pink Quartz material?
Use a soft brush or cloth with mild soap and cool water. Avoid soaking the shoes. Ensure they are thoroughly air-dried afterwards.
Troubleshooting
Shoes feel too tight or uncomfortable
Try wearing them with different types of socks. If discomfort persists after a break-in period, they may not be the right fit for your foot shape.
Slight squeaking noise during movement
This can sometimes occur due to friction between shoe components. It may resolve with continued wear or can sometimes be addressed by applying a small amount of talcum powder to the insole.
Color transfer onto socks or surfaces
Initial wear, especially in damp conditions, may cause some color transfer. This is often temporary and should reduce with further wear. Ensure the shoes are fully dry before storing.

Care: To maintain the appearance and integrity of the Nike Kobe 3 Low Protro:
- Cleaning: Gently wipe the exterior with a soft, damp cloth to remove dirt and dust. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.
