The endless pursuit of perfection is in the details. Originally launched in 2014, The Kobe 9 "Masterpiece" returns in Protro form. This classic silhouette gets a modern update with React cushioning and new traction pattern. The vibrant multicolour Flyknit is a reminder that this pinnacle on the court shoe is also a premium off court statement. The 2025 version of the Nike Kobe 9 Elite Protro 'Masterpiece' carries a Flyknit upper with multicolor fibers woven into the vamp area and side panels. Nike Flywire locks down the midfoot, while a carbon fiber heel counter keeps the ankle stable. Nine red embroidered details on the heel nod to Kobe Bryant's achilles sutures, along with a pattern on the rubber outsole based on the pressure mapping of his foot. This Protro iteration uses React cushioning underfoot instead of the Lunarlon drop-in midsole from the original. @rareairewear SKU: FZ7335 001 Colorway: Black/Metallic Silver/Bright Crimson/Volt
