Kobe 8 Protro Lakers Away — The technical return of a classic

The Kobe 8 arrived in 2013 as Kobe Bryant’s eighth signature shoe and took the player’s obsession with lightness to the extreme: an Engineered Mesh upper, low profile, and the minimum possible material between the foot and the ground. Years later, Nike created the Protro —Performance Retro— program with a different idea from the usual retro release: not to reissue the shoe exactly as it was, but to rebuild it with current technology so it could be played in again.

The Kobe 8 Protro — lightness and road colors

A low-cut design that frees the ankle, technical mesh that wraps the foot, and an outsole pattern designed for quick turns. The Lakers Away name refers to the Los Angeles Lakers’ away uniform, the team Bryant played for throughout his career: purple and gold on a light base.

Materials and technology

  • Upper: Lightweight technical mesh with minimal overlays; Lakers purple and gold color palette; Kobe logo on the tongue
  • Interior: Lining that wraps the foot without seams; cushioned insole; low-cut design
  • Outsole: Updated Zoom Air cushioning as part of the Protro program; rubber outsole with a pattern for turns and stops
