Kobe 9 EM Low Protro 'China' 2025The 2025 iteration of the Nike Kobe 9 Low EM 'China' commemorates the connection Kobe Bryant had with Chinese basketball fans. A metallic gold Swoosh decorates the black engineered mesh upper, which has inner cables built into the lacing system for a locked in fit. Bryant's sheath logo pairs with an embroidered floral print to adorn the tongue. A drop in React foam midsole keeps every step soft, while carbon fiber plates underfoot bring stability.
