Kobe 5 Protro "Year of the Mamba"

Launched in 2010, the lightweight, low-cut Kobe V silhouette was designed to complement Kobe's intense playing style. This Protro version updates the original model with Cushlon foam, for ideal cushioning from start to finish.

We moved the original's Air Zoom unit from the heel to the forefoot to add extra speed to your game.
Cushlon foam on the midsole provides a soft feel underfoot for smooth heel-to-toe transitions.
The smaller amount of rubber present in the sole improves the sensation of contact with the ground and reduces the weight of the shoe compared to the original Kobe V model.
