Nike is expanding its Kobe Bryant lineage with the upcoming Kobe 3 Low Protro “Grinch.” Following an initial preview from European retailer @basket4ballers, the performance silhouette adopts the iconic neon green aesthetic originally made famous by the Kobe 6.
The sneaker features a bright neon lime finish across the toe box, mesh underlays, and signature molded TPU cage structure. Aquamarine detailing provides contrast across the heel counter and tongue branding, while the midsole transitions through a matching green-to-teal gradient.
Nodding directly to its festive inspiration, the pair arrives equipped with bold red laces that mirror the classic holiday color combination. While the Kobe 3 Low Protro maintains its distinct geometric build and low-cut profile, the signature arrangement continues Nike’s trend of bringing celebrated Kobe color themes to additional models across the line.
