This shoe is for light and shifty guards like me. I loved the traction, the cushion was very low to the floor and support was great. There was really no issues with this shoe. I got the College Navy color and these colors match my team colors very well and overall, I really loved this shoe.

Great shoe, good materials and insoles make the shoe comfortable. Also the protro part really makes a difference on the overall comfort and good fit.

Not for everyone- but if you like a low ride with lots of court-feel, this is a great shoe. Traction is also top tier. I have a wide foot with a (very) high arch. This makes it hard for me to find basketball shoes that fit. After a short break in time these 8’s fit me perfect.
Very fast delivery and nice packaging and nice ahoes
Quality materials and build. AMAZING ankle stability for a low-top. These run small so go up .5 size - even if you have a narrow foot. Good for indoor hoops, drills, CrossFit, and neutral enough to be worn as a casual shoe. Break in time was similar to the Sabrina 2.
The shoes are incredible! They are pointed at the end so buy a half size up. They are a tight shoe if you have a wide foot. Shoe feels great to walk in and they look great. A must buy for any shoe enthusiasts.
Anyone giving this shoe anything over a 3 stars just baffles me. I gave it a 3 for the grip (little scary if the court conditions are dusty)and the looks. The inside sole is rock solid, if you wore the original you know it’s not the same. Feels like they went cheap on this. Feels that way with most kicks nowadays. Well if you want Kobe’s you got them, but…they ain’t Kobe’s.
I was hesitant to order since I still have pair of original Kobe VIII. But couldn’t resist an open opportunity to get updated Kobe Protro.Very narrow fit. Glad I read previous reviews and order half (10.5) size up. Still tight fit. Probably should have got full size up. Stiff and will require break in. High quality material and nice Nike swoosh embroidery.
I won the lottery by getting my hands (or feet!) on these! What a beautiful, comfortable shoe. My friends and family were absolutely blown away. On the court or in the street these kicks will turn heads!
