After losing their Kobe deal last year, Nike is back with the Bryant estate, and they plan on bringing back his shoes in a big way next year.

Kobe Bryant’s Nike Kobe 4 Protro To Return In 2023

by

Kobe Bryant is one of the greatest players to ever step on a basketball court. Just like many superstar players, he had an amazing line of signature shoes. Although he started out with Adidas, he ultimately finished his career wearing Nike. If you love Kobe, you have probably owned one of his Nike sneakers.

Interestingly enough, Nike’s deal with the Kobe estate ran out last year. Vanessa Bryant was unhappy with how the brand was doing business, especially in relation to how the sneakers were simply too limited. Bryant wanted her husband’s fans to get his shoes without problems. Simply put, she was very pro sneakerhead.

Kobe Bryant x Nike Lives On

Now, however, Nike and Vanessa are back in business. This means Nike can continue to drop Kobe retros as they wish. Although, it is clear that the brand is now putting a lot more care and attention into what they release.

According to a report from Sneaker News, it has been revealed that next year will see an uptick in Nike Kobe shoes. In fact, the first Kobe Bryant silhouette to return will be the Nike Kobe 4 Protro. Overall, this is a shoe that was very popular all throughout 2019 and 2020, so it’s nice to see it back.

For now, it is unknown which colorways will be part of this revival. Despite this, we do know that there are plenty of amazing offerings to choose from. The Kobe library is massive at this point, and we’re sure Nike will come up with the right ideas.

As for the start of all of this, it seems like you can expect Nike Kobe 4 Protros to drop as of next summer. Exact details have yet to be announced, so stay tuned to HNHH for all of the latest updates. Additionally, let us know which Kobe 4 Protros you want to see return, in the comments below.

Kyrie Irving Continues To Wear Nike, But With A Twist

by

Recently, Kyrie Irving was officially dropped by Nike. Of course, this decision was made following his Twitter post in which he shared a dubious documentary. Since that time, Kyrie has been forced to apologize. Additionally, the Nets suspended him for a couple of weeks.

The termination of his Nike deal was inevitable. Phil Knight and many others within the brand had made comments regarding Kyrie that suggested this was about to happen. Furthermore, with Adidas dropping Kanye, it seemed like dropping Kyrie was the logical conclusion to this saga.

While Kyrie looks for a new sneaker deal, he continues to wear Nike shoes. For instance, on Wednesday night, Irving wore a pair of Nike Kyrie 3s. In the post below, you can see that this shoe is black, gold, and red.

However, Kyrie Irving decided to make a statement by taping over the Nike logo. Unfortunately for Kyrie, the Nike logo is still kind of visible. Moreover, Irving wrote some messages on his shoes, in gold marker. For instance, you can see the phrases “logo here,” as well as “I am free, thank you God…I am.”

Overall, Irving is sending a very strong message here as he is showing that his Nike deal does not define him. While that may be the case, however, some may question him wearing Nike shoes at all.

In the coming months, it will be interesting to see which company decides to take on Kyrie as the face of the brand. For now, though, it seems like Kyrie will have to wait a while until the dust settles.

Let us know what you think of all of this, in the comments down below. Also, stay tuned to HNHH for more news from the sneaker world.
