Kobe<\/a>\u2019s Protro methodology (performance retro for those unaware) has extended across his signature sneaker series and now into the realm of lifestyle with the Nike Air Force 1 Low Protro. Now, Nike has plans to drop plenty of different colorways of this upgraded version of Bruce Kilgore\u2019s low-top basketball sneaker, including the Black Lemon Venom and Work Blue renditions. But there are also plans to hop to a new silhouette in 2026 with a Protro Dunk Low<\/a>. One of the first releases for this updated Dunk is a two-pack of colors inspired by Bryant\u2019s high school, Lower Merion Heights.<\/p>\n

Nike and Kobe Bryant have long highlighted the Philadelphia high school through previous Nike Kobe sneakers, like the Kobe 5<\/a> (which is coming back in 2026), Kobe 6<\/a>, Kobe 7 System<\/a>, and Kobe 11<\/a>. As for the tribute to the Lower Merion Aces, a Home and an Away colorway have been crafted, one featuring team red accented by white and the other inverting the hues. As of this writing, there are no images of the sneakers, but we have created a speculative mock-up of what they could look like.<\/p>\n

Going off of the Nike Air Force 1 Low Protro featuring a faux snakeskin upper, we\u2019ve applied this finish to the uppers. As for the upgrades under the \u201cProtro\u201d moniker, expect to see premium materials, added cushioning from a drop-in midsole, and updated branding features for Kobe throughout the model. Alongside these two Dunks, the Kobe line will be releasing two Air Force 1s in similar Lower Merion Heights colorways.<\/p>\n

The Nike Kobe Dunk Low Protro Lower Merion Pack will release in Spring 2026 through Nike and select retailers online and in-store. Available in men\u2019s sizing, the retail price is set at $135.
