The Nike Kobe 5 Protro Year of the Mamba University Red is a bold tribute to Kobe Bryant’s legacy and the 2025 Lunar New Year. Drawing inspiration from the Year of the Snake, the sneaker features a striking university red upper accented with gold detailing and intricate serpent motifs that nod to Kobe’s “Black Mamba” persona. A golden snake winds along the sides, while metallic gold hits elevate the toe box, heel, and tongue branding. A textured snakeskin finish on the collar adds a premium touch, enhancing the shoe’s luxurious feel. Black Swooshes and a sturdy black rubber outsole provide sharp contrast and everyday durability. With updated Protro performance tech, this edition stays true to Kobe’s commitment to innovation and excellence. Released on January 18, 2025, the Nike Kobe 5 Protro Year of the Mamba University Red retailed for $190. The pair launched exclusively in China, honoring Kobe’s lasting influence and the prosperity and celebration tied to the Lunar New Year.
