The legacy of Kobe Bryant‘s signature sneaker line continues with a holiday-themed comeback. Nike has unveiled an updated version of a fan-favorite, the Kobe 3 Protro “Christmas,” bringing an icy new colorway to the performance retro silhouette.

This new release is a striking departure from the original, with an all-over Royal Pulse and Chrome White gradient colorway that gives the shoe a frozen, futuristic appearance. The sneaker features a gradient fade from blue to white, with its signature basketball-inspired caging taking on a semi-translucent look. The design is finished with subtle iridescent, holographic branding on the heel and tongue, paying homage to the original model.

As a Protro, this shoe has been re-engineered for today’s athletes. It is equipped with a full-length Zoom Air Strobel unit and Cushlon 3.0 foam, providing superior cushioning and a responsive feel. The Kobe 3 Protro Christmas is expected to be released during the holiday season.
