Kobe 4 Protro 'Mambacita'
Like the Nike Kobe 6 Protro “Mambacita” before it, the Nike Kobe 4 Protro “Mambacita” is a chance for Kobe Bryant fans to pay homage to the life of Bean and his daughter Gianna “GiGi” Bryant.

The Kobe 4 Protro “Mambacita” is designed in a colorway that honors her youth basketball team's uniform, with personal touches, such as a gingham pattern around the heel pays homage to Gigi's favorite flannel shirt and the red bow she wore in her school pictures being represented by a red Swoosh on the outsole, added as a nod to her personality. Other honorary design items include Gigi's name on the heel and shoelace tips are a reminder of the ferocity in which Gigi played, and the “Mambacita” heart and wings on the insole symbolizes Gigi's love for the game.
