It appears that Nike may have plans to bring back yet another popular style in Kobe Bryant's signature line, as we're now learning that the "What The" Kobe 8 is rumored to drop next summer.
According to @Brandon1an on X, there's a "What The" Kobe 8 Protro colorway hitting retailers in Summer 2025. The leaker account also mentioned that it's currently unknown if Nike is reissuing the original 2013 version of the "What The" Kobe 8 (pictured above) or if the brand is releasing a new variation of the mash-up style.
Ahead of the purported "What The" Nike Kobe 8 Protro release next year, there are several "Team Bank" colorways of Bryant's eighth signature model on the horizon, including two Lakers-themed makeups.
Release details for the "What The" Kobe 8 Protro have yet to be confirmed by Nike, but more info should arrive in the months ahead.
