This particular version of the VIII are the most uncomfortable Kobe’s I’ve ever worn. Way to firm on top of the big toe and doesn’t have any flexibility.


This exceptionally light, low-cut design (the same one that propelled Kobe through the 2011/12 season) is refreshed with a triple-white colourway and a Nike React foam insert. Finishing in true Protro fashion, elevated embroidery and Kobe's "Sheath" logo on the midsole brings the Mamba Mentality to every step.

The herringbone pattern at the forefoot and heel gives you optimal traction for hard moves and cuts. It's located where your foot is normally planted, giving you a secure grip. Diamond-esque shapes run along the edge of the outsole into the heel. At the ball of the foot is a small pivot circle.
Nike React technology is a lightweight, durable foam that delivers a smooth, responsive ride.
