Nike Kobe 3 Low Protro Pink Quartz IF2497-500

The Nike Kobe 3 Low Protro "Pink Quartz" marks the first widely available retail release of the Kobe 3 Low Protro, following the ultra-limited "Warning Label" drop during 2026 NBA All-Star Weekend. The colorway pays tribute to Kobe Bryant's first three seasons in the NBA, drawing inspiration from the iconic pink-hued lights that illuminated the exterior of The Forum in Los Angeles, where the Lakers played before moving to Staples Center. The quilted mesh upper comes drenched in soft pink tones, with darker accents around the heel and midfoot adding structural contrast. Updated Protro technology modernizes the original 2004 Kobe 3, delivering improved cushioning and responsiveness while maintaining the silhouette's radical low-cut profile, asymmetrical lacing system, and sculptural midsole. Already debuted on-court by Jalen Brunson during a Knicks-Lakers matchup, this is both a collector's piece and a performance-ready basketball shoe.
