The Nike Kobe 9 Elite Protro “What The" Is Rumored To Return Next Year

As a die-hard Kobe Bryant fan who has been following his career since the turn of the millennium, I can’t help but get excited about the rumored return of the Nike Kobe 9 Elite Protro “What The” next year! I still remember the first time I saw that multicolored masterpiece back in 2015 – it was a sight to behold, and I’ve been hoping for its return ever since.

Item Name: Nike Kobe 9 Elite Protro “What The” (originally released in 2015)

Over the weekend, Nike Basketball marked Kobe Day with not only debuting the Nike Kobe 9 Elite in its Protro version and the “Halo” colorway, but also replenishing popular styles. Moreover, further releases showcasing the same design are expected in the upcoming year, including a re-release of the “Christmas” pair during this holiday season.

Adding to the list of rumored releases, we now have information supporting the rumor that the “What The” colorway of the Kobe 9 Elite Protro will be releasing next year. Initially, EldenMonitors shared that it’s likely to return and now Sneaker Market RO has further supported the rumor’s legitimacy with info regarding its kid’s sizing. The multicolored makeover first released back in 2015 (pictured above) and is expected to sport the same look for its 10th anniversary next year.

As of now, Nike has not officially announced that the Kobe 9 Elite Protro will be available in a “What The” version next year. Keep an eye out for future news, such as the unveiling of its color scheme, which is tentatively scheduled to release alongside its Kobe 8 Elite Protro counterpart on Nike SNKRS and select retailers in April of next year.

It seems likely that we’re looking at a re-release of the Kobe 9, given the color blocking. However, as this is a new SKU with different color combinations, I’m uncertain about it being an exact repeat.
