On Friday, Nike will release a special edition Kobe Bryant sneaker that honors his Philly roots.
The Kobe 4 Protro “Philly” is an ode to the city that nurtured, booed, and, ultimately, honored the legendary Laker.
Scheduled for a Saturday morning release, the new Kobe 4 Protro “Philly” will stay true to the shoe’s original 2009 design, while “nodding to his birthplace,” per Nike., the Kobe 4 Protro “Philly” combines a varsity blue upper, white midsole, and varsity red trim on the shoe laces, sock liner, and the swoosh logo. There’s also a star pattern along the ankle, and hisdate of birth and signature mantra, “Mamba Mentality,” is printed on the insoles.
The all-time basketball great, who tragically died alongside his 13-year-old daughter, Gianna, in a helicopter crash in January 2020, was born in the City of Brotherly Love. His father, Joe “Jellybean” Bryant, played for the 76ers in the first four years of his basketball career. They lived in Ardmore as Bryant began his basketball career at Lower Merion High School. The future superstar guard led Lower Merion to a state championship during his senior year, and was named the Naismith High School player of the year before declaring for the 1996 NBA draft.
