Bone apple teethI know this is blast famous...
I love the 9s too. I guess I'm used to Nike's original plan which was stick to one generation to protro and release multiple colorways as if it was a current shoe. I actually anticipated a Protro 7 since it seemed like they were going in order from 4-6.^^like the 9s?
Were you able to stick true to size in the protro 6? The narrower shape compared to the og kills my feet after a few games.I just want 8s. My POP Protro 6s might be the best shoe I've played in the last three years but I want to move on to a newer Kobe.
tts for me. For reference I wore a 9 in the protro 1 and 4, 9.5 in the protro 5 and 6, GT cut 1Were you able to stick true to size in the protro 6? The narrower shape compared to the og kills my feet after a few games.
Ah that makes sense. The original only had the small circular zoom unit instead of the larger one on the pro troI didn't find the 6 protro to be narrow, but the zoom turbo definitely lifted your foot up a bit and made them feel a half size small compared to the OG.
Man…any Kobe release is gonna be a circus. I reminder when I was trying to get the retro green grinches….went to 7-8 different stores for raffles. Struck out on all
. I think they all got back doored. And it was pissing me off, all the workers asking me what imma do with them if I won em. Take em to the courts of course!!!

I’m personally not a fan of the protro concept. People love playing in Kobes the way they were, they don’t need “improvements”. I’ve never seen a protro and through “golly gee, this is better than the original”.Wish they would bring back the og shape. The protro fit so small and tight. With how high prices are, getting the wrong size (aka your normal size) is an expensive mistake.
Man I’m with you 100%. These protros fit me terribly lol. Either they fit right lengthwise but destroy my feet and cause them to go numb, or they fit width wise but have an inch of empty space in the front. I had like 15 pairs of the originals and they all fit great and comfortably with no issues.I’m personally not a fan of the protro concept.

In that case, half size up would be considered a good fit then, why have I been fighting it this whole timeInch of empty space isn’t a lot… it’s recommended some breathing room for foot and toe health. You don’t want your toe touching the toebox at all
Protro'ing a shoe is a gamble in innovation. I'm all for it and the protro concept is something Kobe personally wanted for his line as well (I think he was against retroing them as is when they did the Kobe 1 protro).I’m personally not a fan of the protro concept.
