The Kobe 9 EM Protro returns in five team-ready colorways just in time for the new season.
A Classic Court Silhouette Gets the Team Treatment
Nike Basketball is bringing back the Kobe 9 EM Protro in a bold new lineup of “Team Bank” colorways, making it a standout fall drop for fans of the late basketball icon’s signature line. Designed for team play and packed with energy, the collection features five clean colorways: University Red/White, Game Royal/White, Black/University Gold, White/Court Purple, and Wolf Grey/White.
Each sneaker keeps the performance-forward EM Protro construction intact, while pairing crisp white midsoles and accents with their core team tones. Subtle details under the tongue like “Obsession,” “Relentless,” and “Resilience” add to the personal storytelling that’s become a hallmark of the Kobe line.
Fall Release, Elevated Looks
While early looks at the Black/University Gold and Game Royal versions sparked buzz earlier this year, Nike has now confirmed the full lineup with official images of the final two colorways. Whether you’re stepping on court or collecting for legacy, the “Team Bank” collection offers a versatile mix rooted in Kobe’s relentless ethos.
Look for the full collection to drop this fall via Nike SNKRS and select retailers. Retail is expected to start at $190 USD per pair, with a potential September 30 release date in the mix. Stay tuned as more info lands.
