The announcement of the all new Nike Kobe 4 Protro “Mambacita”, just might be the greatest Kobe retros to date. After the untimely passing of Kobe and Gianna Bryant, the Kobe brand was on hiatus as Vanessa Bryant and Nike ironed out some differences. After coming to a compromise, the Kobe brand is back and ready to unleash the “Mambacita” to the world. Nike Basketball will celebrate “Gigi” Bryant’s birthday by releasing the Nike Kobe 4 Protro “Mambacita” colorway.
The Nike Kobe 4 Protro “Mambacita” features a white leather base with “GIGI” embroidered with the No. 2 on the heels. The colorway is a White, Metallic Gold, Black, and Emerald, with Black detailing and a plaid print run throughout the heel counters. In addition, the Nike Swoosh, laces, and midsole are dressed in black. To round it off, the tongue features the Kobe logo in gold.
Each pair of Nike Kobe 4 Protro “Mambacita” will include special packaging which will include extra laces. With a retail recommended price tag of $180, the Nike Kobe 4 Protro “Mambacita” will go sale on Gigi’s birthday, May 1 at select retailers and Nike.com.
