Protro is a portmanteau of 'performance' and 'retro.' It signifies that the shoe is a modern reimagining of a classic model, updated with current performance technology while retaining the original aesthetic.
The intensity and duration of the glow depend on the amount of light exposure and the specific materials used. Regular 'charging' under light will maintain the effect, but it may naturally diminish over the lifespan of the shoe with extensive use.
Yes, the Protro series is designed with professional-level performance in mind, offering responsiveness and support. However, individual preferences for footwear can vary among professional athletes.
The design is inspired by an iconic X-ray T-shirt worn by Kobe Bryant that featured his hand adorned with five championship rings, reinterpreted here as an X-ray of a foot.
The primary colors are deep royal blue, baltic blue, and glacier blue, creating a vibrant and dynamic look.
This special edition was released on October 17, 2024, with an original retail price of $190.
Clean the outsoles gently with a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Avoid abrasive materials that could damage the glow-in-the-dark finish.
Ensure you have the correct size. For new shoes, wear them for short periods indoors to break them in. Lacing techniques can also be adjusted for a more personalized fit.
Expose the shoes to a bright light source for at least 15-30 minutes to 'charge' the glow elements. The effect is best observed in complete darkness.
Ensure the outsoles are clean from dirt and debris. Lightly scuffing the outsoles on a clean court surface can sometimes restore grip.
Avoid prolonged exposure to direct sunlight or harsh chemicals. Clean gently as per care instructions.
