Nike Kobe 5 Protro “Bruce Lee” Colorway Revealed

While the release of new Kobe sneakers has yet to return to normal since his passing, a few colorways of the popular Nike Kobe 5 Protros continue to appear online. The latest of these leaks is the unique “Bruce Lee” colorway you see pictured above.

Inspired by Bruce Lee’s outfit as he appeared in the landmark 1973 kung-fu action film Enter The Dragon, this sneaker combines the memories of two of the world’s most famous athletes. This Protro dons a mix of black patent leather on the forefoot and paneling, laser-etched fine leather for the lace stays, and white mesh on the interior and exterior portions of the ankle for extra support. Hits of bright yellow on the heel are another Lee reference; the shade is taken from the iconic yellow tracksuit he wore in the 1978 film Game of Death.

When these do release later this year, they will prove to be a great homage to two of the greatest in their respective fields. Stay tuned to Sole Savy for more information in the coming weeks.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
