The Nike Kobe 9 Elite Protro “Christmas” is making a comeback for its 10th anniversary this holiday season. Originally released on December 26, 2014, the shoe became iconic after the Lakers wore it during their Christmas Day game against the Bulls.
The sneaker features a festive crimson, black, and white colorway, with crimson and white Flyknit on the upper, Flywire for midfoot support, and sleek black Swoosh and Mamba branding. A decade later, it’s still turning heads.
