Foot Locker surprised New York Knicks fans with a limited release of Jalen Brunson’s Nike Kobe 3 Low Protro “Arancia” PE at its “Rings-N-Things” pop-up in Manhattan. News of the drop spread that morning, bringing fans to 125 West 33rd Street for a chance to grab a pair before the Knicks’ championship ring ceremony and banner raising at Madison Square Garden.

The snakeskin-covered Kobe Brinks truck also made an appearance outside the event. Fans may remember seeing the truck with Brunson during NBA All-Star Weekend earlier this year. Inside, Foot Locker had set up the space to resemble New York City’s jewelry district, complete with storefront-style displays that matched the championship theme.

Along with the limited Nike Kobe 3 Low Protro PE release, fans could shop exclusive Knicks merchandise and jewelry from GLD. The event brought together sneaker collectors and basketball fans looking to celebrate New York’s championship season.

Foot Locker is now the official athletic footwear retailer of the New York Knicks, with more events expected throughout the season. The Jalen Brunson Nike Kobe 3 Low Protro “Arancia” PE was released in limited quantities during the October 20, 2026, pop-up event in New York City. A wider release is set for December 11.
