First debuted with the help of Jalen Brunson in his “Arancia” colorway, the Nike Kobe 3 has quickly become one of the more high volume products out of Kobe Brand in 2026. Even as attention remains on all-timers like the Kobe 5 and Kobe 6, “Warning Label” and “WNBA All-Star” colorways have brought some (literal) shine before more accessible general releases like the “Atomic Pink” have further developed its foothold.

Following look as an all-black and an “Electric Green” at the Mamba Invitational, the rollout trots ahead with the Nike Kobe 3 Low Protro “Pure Platinum.” Also worn on-court, now this chilly edition has begun cropping up on retail channels. Worn by Jun Seok Yeo during the FIBA World Cup 2027 Qualifiers, the shoe is mostly coated in its titular grey, but finds space for shimmering “Armory Blue” in its branding.

The Nike Kobe 3 Low Protro “Pure Platinum” is expected to hit shelves during the ongoing Fall/Winter slate, likely carrying its standard $190 retail price. Catch in-aciton and studio shots throughout this piece.
