Nike Kobe 3 Protro “Christmas” Expected for Holiday 2025

There’s something about Christmas and Kobe Bryant’s signature sneakers that just makes sense. Kobe's kicks have long been synonymous with festive on-court moments, from the legendary "Grinch" Kobe 6—an undisputed staple of NBA Christmas Day games—to various other holiday-themed releases. Now, Nike is set to introduce a new entry into this storied legacy with the Nike Kobe 3 Protro “Christmas,” expected to arrive during the Holiday of 2025.

According to Sneaker Market, the pair will feature a mix of Royal Pulse, Chrome, and White—a trio of icy hues perfectly suited for the winter season. However, specific details on how these colors will be applied remain unknown. Early speculative mock-ups have surfaced, offering a simple execution of the palette; given the Kobe line’s reputation for intricate designs, fans can expect something special when official images emerge.

Stay tuned for first looks in the coming months, and keep an eye on our Nike Release Dates page for updates.
