Nike Basketball is launching a new Nike Kobe 5 Protro "X-Ray" on October 17, 2024, inspired by the T-shirt worn by Kobe Bryant.
The Nike Kobe 5 Protro "X-Ray" is a tribute to Kobe Bryant and is inspired by a Nike T-shirt he wore that featured the X-ray of his broken hand and five championship rings. The pair comes in a "Deep Royal Blue / Baltic Blue / Glacier Blue" color scheme, releasing on October 17, 2024 at a price of 899 lei. The overall upper design resembles the Air Force 1 "Skeleton", which has released in multiple colorways for Halloween. The different shades of blue used are a nod to the tones that appear in an X-ray. The model releases in a unisex size run from 3.5 US to 18 US at a price of 180 dollars (899 lei).
When is the Nike Kobe 5 Protro “X-Ray” releasing?
The Nike Kobe 5 Protro "X-Ray" is releasing during Winter 2024 on Nike.com and at select Nike Basketball partner stores. At the moment, Nike has not yet confirmed an exact release date. However, we already know that the model is part of the Nike Holiday 2024 seasonal lineup. As a result, we expect the pair to release between October and December 2024. According to multiple sources, the new limited edition is scheduled to release on October 17, 2024. See the official images below as we wait for more details about the launch.
