Nike Kobe 5 Protro ‘Lower Merion’

$200Style IM0557-001
Nike Kobe 5 Protro ‘Lower Merion’

Kobe Bryant’s high school colors came to the Kobe 5 Protro for the first time in March 2026, honoring the Lower Merion Aces team where Bryant’s professional-caliber talent first became widely known. Lower Merion-themed Kobe shoes have historically been among the most emotionally resonant in the entire Kobe line.

The black and gold Aces color scheme translated naturally to the Kobe 5 Protro’s low, streamlined profile, with the Protro updates bringing modern construction to the shoe’s essential 2009 design. For collectors and Kobe fans, this colorway carried genuine personal significance.

The Nike Kobe 5 Protro Lower Merion retailed at $200 and released March 23, 2026 through Nike SNKRS and select Jordan Brand basketball retailers.
