One of the main questions was if I'd like to see more limited releases or general releases. And what my favorite Kobe model is. I'm guessing they are still planning out the main releases for 2024 since they do things in a year in advance. I'm sure they'll do more market research on this.
On a side note, not related but related.

That question asking about limited vs general release grinds my gears. I don't know who in the right mind at Nike looked at the Kobe market for the past three years and thought "yup, more limited releases to please everyone".One of the main questions was if I'd like to see more limited releases or general releases.

2K4 retros???? Wow. Hoping they aren’t marketed as Kobes, because I really don’t want to fight hypebeasts for those.So I guess with Gigi 4 and this Nike survey, Nike will protro any models maybe, beginning from 2k4, protro back zk1, ? Instead continuing 8, 9, etc.
If I remember correctly, Nike retro the 2k4 before, right? And I think they cheaped out on the cushion…2K4 retros???? Wow. Hoping they aren’t marketed as Kobes, because I really don’t want to fight hypebeasts for those.

Remember I said they possibly tryna now take a Jordan-esque route.So I guess with Gigi 4 and this Nike survey, Nike will protro any models maybe, beginning from 2k4, protro back zk1, ? Instead continuing 8, 9, etc.
Shoot even adidas is trying to get in on it with all the kb 1 and possibly the kb3 releasing this year… it’s a shame what they did to the 2k4 bad zoom releasejust my guess honestly, since I think those retroed before, and looks like Nike planning to bring back any Kobe releated models.
Does 100% of the proceeds go to the organization?Nice but $124 for a sweater
I know it’s for charity but![]()
Looks like we won't see much this year as expected. But next year might be a different story.

Same how they do exclusive access on SNKRS?I wonder how they decided who got that survey.

The way I see it, kinda from Nike's perspective, is through budget and how much they can afford to offer us, the consumers. Back when Kobe's were hitting outlets (2018-19ish) Nike were producing not just the Protros, but ADs and AD NXTs, too. Kyrie and PG's lines were still going strong back then, too.His line is tricky tbh.
Before he died, that had a TON of inventory sent to outlets, on markdown, donated etc. Now that he died, everyone wants Kobes & in abundance.
It will be interesting to see the route they take.

Actually I only saw Protro 1s at an outlet. I saw Protro 4s discounted to about $140 at a Footlocker.I was patiently waiting for the Protro 4s to hit outlets.
Kuminga’s Kobes are a reminder of Nike Basketball’s golden era.
