Nike Basketball is set to honor Kobe Bryant’s legacy with the Nike Kobe 3 Protro “Halo.” Scheduled for August 2025, this release continues the celebrated “Halo” series. Launched in 2023 with the Kobe 8 Protro, the series pays annual tribute to Kobe’s profound impact on basketball and beyond.

Each “Halo” release arrives on Kobe’s birthday, August 23, and the Kobe 3 Protro is the latest to receive Nike’s Protro treatment. This marks the first time the Kobe 3 will include Protro upgrades, featuring a full-length articulated Zoom Strobel unit for enhanced cushioning and responsiveness. Designed for today’s athletes, this upgrade blends modern performance with nostalgia.

The Kobe 3 Protro “Halo” retains its iconic web-like upper in an all-white colorway. This clean design reflects simplicity and elegance, ensuring timeless appeal. While specific release details are not yet confirmed, the shoe is expected to stay true to Kobe’s relentless pursuit of excellence.

This release will be the first retro of the Kobe 3 since its original debut, apart from the limited “Fade to Black” collection. It continues the “Halo” tradition of modernizing Kobe’s signature shoes while preserving their essence. Nike’s innovation meets heritage in this performance-driven tribute.
