Kobe 9 EM Low Protro "WNBA"

Nike is going all-in on the WNBA's 30th anniversary, having already prepared special editions in various colorways for both basketball and lifestyle sneakers. Now, the focus shifts to Kobe Bryant, whose advocacy for women's basketball after his retirement was driven largely by his support for his daughters. That influence comes to life in the Nike Kobe 9 EM Protro “WNBA.”

Much like last year’s Nike Kobe 6 Protro “Total Orange,” these sneakers pay tribute to the W with a vibrant orange color palette inspired by the league’s logo. The official colorway is “Orange Frost/Brilliant Orange/Summit White/Ice Peach,” featuring a gradient upper and soft neutral tones on the midsole.

• Nike React foam in the midsole delivers responsive cushioning that enhances court feel.
• The heel counter provides lightweight, durable lateral stability.
• A pressure-mapped, pared-down rubber outsole offers durable traction and follows the foot's natural contours.
• Shown color: Orange Frost/Brilliant Orange/Summit White/Ice Peach
