The Nike Kobe 9 Elite Low Protro is making a highly anticipated return with the “Beethoven” colorway, set for release in 2025. Following the success of the recent “Halo” release, this drop marks the latest reappearance of the Kobe 9 Elite Low since its debut in 2014. While this Protro version maintains the original design’s iconic features, it now includes upgraded performance elements for today’s basketball players.

Inspired by Beethoven’s black-and-white piano keys, the “Beethoven” colorway reflects Kobe Bryant’s admiration for the legendary composer. The sleek palette of black, white, and grey creates a minimal yet striking design. This color scheme mirrors Kobe’s precision and focus, which he displayed on the basketball court.

As part of Nike’s Protro series, the 2025 Kobe 9 Elite Low “Beethoven” comes with modern enhancements. The introduction of Nike React cushioning offers better responsiveness, giving players a performance edge. Additionally, the updated traction ensures superior grip on the court, blending advanced technology with the nostalgia of Kobe’s legacy.
