Our Kobe is a bit obsessed with the Joker, and his love for the malevolent monster is obvious in the Kobe 5 Protro 'Chaos'. The iconic kick still recalls the OG's combined responsiveness and low-to-the-ground ride that provided a launchpad for Bryant's devastating first step, but several performance factors have received minor upgrades. This iteration includes a simplified construction, 100% bigger Zoom Air in the forefoot, and softer foam in the midsole.
- Nike Air Zoom Turbo cushioning is articulated to engage at multiple angles.
- Padded collar and external heel counter help lock you in and keep you stable.
- Minimally structured upper is lightweight and supportive all around.
- Split outsole helps optimize court contact for great traction.
- Cushlon foam provides plush underfoot comfort.
- Perforated tongue and toe box.
