Kobe “Mambacurial” Premium Basketball<\/p>\n

$150 on Nike<\/a>When was Nike\u2019s Mambacurial color first launched?<\/p>\n

Mambacurial was born from a combination of Bryant\u2019s Mamba DNA and soccer style in 2013. Even now, this Protro will take cues from the original Nike Mercurial Vapor IX soccer boot. A gradient runs from the heel to the toe, fading from Red Plum to Pink Flash with Electric Green accents on the tongue, Swoosh and outsole. If you peek at the inner tongue, you\u2019ll even see a \u201cMambacurial\u201d nod in the design. <\/p>\n

What to expect in the Kobe 8 Protro basketball shoes<\/p>\n

Take your game to the next level. Built to be low to the court, sleek and light on your feet, the Kobe 8 Protro features Nike ReactX foam to keep you fresh all game. An engineered upper mesh conforms to your individual foot shape for comfort, while grippy traction helps improve your quick cuts and breakaways. <\/p>\n

Collect Nike\u2019s premium Kobe Basketball<\/p>\n

Complete the Mambacurial set. Nike\u2019s matching basketball is made for both indoor and outdoor play with deep channels and a non-slip surface for better ball handling. Play with it or display it. That\u2019s up to you \u2013 but the box does convert into a display and comes with a ball stand if you prefer to leave it on the shelf.<\/p>\n

Nike\u2019s limited-edition releases sell out fast, especially when they are tied to Kobe Bryant\u2019s signature legacy. Plan to be online early<\/a> regardless of what you\u2019re after for the best chance at getting it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Nike is bringing back a 2013 Mamba soccer colorway and re-launching it on high-performance basketball gear.
