About This Shoe
Updated Aug 4, 2026
The Nike Kobe 8 Protro 'Shanghai Fireworks' revives a visually striking colorway of Kobe Bryant's eighth signature shoe. Faithful to the original 2013 release, which launched exclusively in China, the mesh upper features exploding firework graphics in a swirling blend of orange, crimson, and yellow hues. Branding elements include a black Swoosh and Kobe's Sheath logo atop the tongue. This Protro edition arrives with drop-in React foam cushioning, housed within a Phylon foam carrier. Underfoot, a translucent rubber outsole reveals an exposed glass-based carbon fiber shank plate.
