Is the Kobe IX Elite Low EM Protro suitable for outdoor play?

While durable, prolonged outdoor use may accelerate wear and tear of the outsole. It's best suited for indoor court use.

What is Flywire technology?

Troubleshooting

Shoe feels too tight.

Ensure you have the correct size. Try loosening the laces or wearing thinner socks. Consider the break-in period, as the Flyknit upper may initially feel snug.

Traction seems insufficient.

Clean the outsole with a damp cloth to remove any dust or debris. Make sure you are playing on a clean court surface.

Cushioning feels flat.

Ensure the sockliner is correctly positioned. Allow the React foam to rebound after use.
