Our take on the Nike Kobe IX Elite Low Protro 'Purple Dynasty'

The Kobe IX Elite Low Protro is Nike's modern rebuild of Kobe Bryant's 2014 low-cut signature shoe. This 'Purple Dynasty' version keeps the original knit upper and nine red heel stitches, but swaps the old Lunarlon midsole for a full-length Nike React drop-in with Zoom Air. It suits guards and wings who want a light, low, court-feel shoe with a snug knit fit. Against current low-top signatures it trades maximum cushioning for responsiveness and a closer feel to the floor.

Pros
  • Full-length React drop-in with Zoom Air gives more bounce than the original Lunarlon
  • Low-cut knit upper keeps weight down and fit close

  • Solid rubber outsole with a multidirectional tread pattern
  • Faithful shape to the 2014 Elite Low
Cons
  • Snug knit fit can be tight for wide feet
  • Low collar offers little ankle coverage
  • Court feel over plush cushioning, so heavy players may want more foam
  • Light colorways in knit show wear quickly

Questions and answers

How does the Protro differ from the original Kobe IX Elite Low?
The Protro replaces the original Lunarlon midsole with a full-length Nike React drop-in and adds Zoom Air. The knit upper, low cut and nine heel stitches stay the same.
Is it good for outdoor courts?
It has a rubber outsole with a multidirectional tread, but the knit upper and light build wear faster on rough asphalt. It is best kept for indoor or smooth courts.
Does it fit true to size?
The knit upper is snug, so most players go true to size and wide-footed players often size up half a size.
Is there ankle support?
No. It is a low-cut shoe with a soft knit collar, so it offers little ankle coverage. Players who want lockdown should look at a mid or high model.
What cushioning does it use?
A full-length Nike React foam drop-in with Zoom Air. It is responsive and low to the ground rather than plush.
