As a continuation of Nike Basketball’s revered “What The” concept, this Protro edition celebrates the rich history of the Kobe 8—an era-defining silhouette known for its lightweight performance and low-profile court feel—by blending a mosaic of fan-favorite elements.\n\nOverview\nUnveiled in 2025, the Kobe 8 Protro 'What The' features a mismatched execution across each shoe, incorporating standout details from past releases like the 'Prelude,' 'Mambacurial,' 'Milk Snake,' and 'Venice Beach.' The engineered mesh upper enables breathability while showcasing intricate, multi-color prints that pay homage to Kobe’s legacy both on and off the court. A drop-in Lunarlon midsole provides responsive cushioning, while the translucent outsole ensures optimal traction. With Protro-level performance upgrades that enhance comfort and durability, this model bridges nostalgia with innovation. The pair also honors Bryant’s storytelling legacy, bringing together unforgettable moments from his signature line into a single, unifying narrative.\n\nKey Highlights\n• Iconic “What The” Colorway Execution: Features a left-right mismatched design, integrating memorable graphics and hues from previous Kobe 8 releases.\n• Protro Performance Enhancements: Includes upgraded cushioning via a drop-in Lunarlon midsole and refined construction for improved responsiveness.\n• Engineered Mesh Upper: Offers lightweight flexibility and breathability, supporting dynamic movement on and off the hardwood.\n\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAuthenticity:\u003c\/strong\u003e Non-retail (UA-grade), meaning these items are produced in the same factories and to similar specifications as retail versions, but are not sold through authorised brand channels, allowing us to offer them at significantly lower prices.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReturns \u0026amp; Exchanges:\u003c\/strong\u003e We offer a 30-day return and refund policy from the date of delivery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping:\u003c\/strong\u003e We ship worldwide and offer free worldwide shipping.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eProduct Images:\u003c\/strong\u003e All images shown are of the actual product and accurately represent what you will receive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInspection Requests:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pre-shipment inspection images can be provided upon request at checkout, which may extend processing times.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDisclaimer:\u003c\/strong\u003e Sole Dept is an independent retailer and is not affiliated with any brands shown, and all trademarks and copyrights belong to their respective owners.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Nike","offers":[{"title":"US M 4 \/ W 5.5","offer_id":54007080517950,"sku":null,"price":255.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US M 4.5 \/ W 6","offer_id":54001027711294,"sku":null,"price":255.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US M 5 \/ W 6.5","offer_id":54001027744062,"sku":null,"price":255.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US M 5.5 \/ W 7","offer_id":54007080550718,"sku":null,"price":255.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US M 6 \/ W 7.5","offer_id":54007080583486,"sku":null,"price":255.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US M 6.5 \/ W 8","offer_id":54001027776830,"sku":null,"price":255.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US M 7 \/ W 8.5","offer_id":54001027809598,"sku":null,"price":255.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US M 7.5 \/ W 9","offer_id":54001027842366,"sku":null,"price":255.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US M 8 \/ W 9.5","offer_id":54001027875134,"sku":null,"price":255.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US M 8.5 \/ W 10","offer_id":54007080616254,"sku":null,"price":255.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US M 9 \/ W 10.5","offer_id":54001027907902,"sku":null,"price":255.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US M 9.5 \/ W 11","offer_id":54001027940670,"sku":null,"price":255.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US M 10 \/ W 11.5","offer_id":54001027973438,"sku":null,"price":255.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US M 10.5 \/ W 12","offer_id":54001028006206,"sku":null,"price":255.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US M 11 \/ W 12.5","offer_id":54001028038974,"sku":null,"price":255.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US M 11.5 \/ W 13","offer_id":54001028071742,"sku":null,"price":255.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US M 12 \/ W 13.5","offer_id":54001028104510,"sku":null,"price":255.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"US M 13 \/ W 14.5","offer_id":54001028170046,"sku":null,"price":255.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0991\/8254\/3166\/files\/Nike-Kobe-8-Protro-What-The-2025-1.jpg?v=1785478109","url":"https:\/\/soledept.com\/products\/nike-kobe-8-protro-what-the-2025","provider":"Sole Dept.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
