Nike Basketball and Undefeated have come together to celebrate Kobe Bryant's birthday with the Nike Kobe 4 Protro Undefeated Lakers, now available on StockX. Nike and the LA-based streetwear and sneaker one-stop shop Undefeated have been long time collaborators, so it only made sense for one LA legend to honor another with a special edition Kobe 4 for this years Mamba Day. These shoes are a part of a pack of four Kobe 4 Protros that represent members of Team Kobe. This purple and gold colorway not only salutes Kobe's monumental career as a Laker, but also nods to Laker rising star and Team Kobe player Kyle Kuzma.

As part of the Protro Series, this Kobe 4 is delivered with improved tech, a modernized upper, and revamped materials. This shoe features a purple iridescent patent leather upper with its signature Flywire technology on the sides contrasted with gold accents. Signature Kobe logo and the Undefeated 5 strike logo appear on each of the tongues. A Zoom Air cushioned midsole and iridescent Undefeated logo with the numbers 8 and 24 heel details honoring Kobe Bryant's legacy complete the design. These sneakers released in August of 2019 for $180.
