Nike Basketball will be honoring their EYBL athletes with a special edition Kobe 8 Protro colorway. The EYBL (Nike Elite Youth Basketball League) is a premier basketball circuit for teams of players aged 17 and under in the United States, founded back in 2010. This new "Crimson Tint" colorway will be reserved for player's and friends and family, a public release will be highly unlikely. Take a look at the colorway below.
The Nike Kobe 8 Protro EYBL "Crimson Tint" will feature a Pink/White color-scheme, making this sneaker a standout design on and off the court. The mesh upper arrives in a Light Pink hue, extending to the rear TPU heel, mesh inner lining, tongue, and laces. The Nike Swoosh and Kobe branding will be found in a sleek black, alongside the EYBL emblem which arrives in Metallic Gold. Finishing off the look, we'll see a White midsole sitting atop a semi-translucent Pink rubber outsole for traction and support.
The Nike Kobe 8 Protro EYBL "Crimson Tint" PE will likely remain a player exclusive release and never see the light of the public. To stay informed on all things Kobe Brand and to stay up to date with the latest releases connect with us on Instagram and Twitter.
