The Nike Kobe 5 Protro “Bruce Lee” is a highly anticipated release that pays homage to the iconic martial artist and actor, Bruce Lee. Originally introduced in 2010, this colorway is inspired by two classic Bruce Lee films – “Game of Death” and “Enter the Dragon”.
The shoe features a black and yellow upper, reminiscent of the one-piece jumpsuit that Bruce Lee wore in “Game of Death”. The vibrant yellow walls and toe caps stand out against the black panels, creating a striking visual aesthetic. Adding to the design are four red scratch marks on the lateral side of the shoe, which pay tribute to the final fight scene in “Enter the Dragon” where Lee’s character is injured.
The attention to detail in this shoe is remarkable. The heel tabs and Kobe’s signature are dyed to a matching yellow tone, while metallic silver accents add a touch of elegance to the design. The Nike branding is present on the heel, completing the overall look.
In terms of performance, the Nike Kobe 5 Protro is built for the basketball court. It features Nike’s Flywire technology throughout the upper, providing lightweight support and lockdown for quick cuts and explosive movements. The foam midsole houses a large-volume Zoom Air unit in the forefoot, delivering responsive cushioning and impact protection.
The release date for the Nike Kobe 5 Protro “Bruce Lee” is set for November 25th, 2020. This highly sought-after sneaker is sure to be a hit among sneaker enthusiasts and fans of Bruce Lee alike.
