The University Of Kentucky has received its own Nike Kobe 8 Protro PE for its men’s and women’s basketball programs. It was not too long ago when Nike and Vanessa Bryant announced the “Mamba Program” which has selected a few colleges to receive player exclusive sneakers and the University of Kentucky was one of the colleges picked for this program. 

The Kobe 8 Protro is the first sneaker that the University of Kentucky will be receiving its own colorways in, as the Kobe 8 is one of the most coveted Nike basketball shoes in Kobe Bryant’s signature line. The Player exclusive sneaker consists of a simple white and blue color scheme with the “UK” logo on the tongue of the sneaker. 

These will likely remain a player exclusive sneaker for the collegiate athletes but for now take an official look down at the Kobe 8 Protro “University Of Kentucky”.
