Veteran guard Arike Ogunbowale of the Dallas Wings is the latest recipient, popping out the other night in a never-before-seen Nike Kobe 5 Protro.<\/p>\n<p>A college icon who led Notre Dame to a national title in 2018, Ogunbowale took the floor against the Chicago Sky in a Kobe 5 Protro featuring split coloring. The shoe opens with a navy blue foundation, sporting a coral red on the lateral side and light blue on the medial. The split motif flows through the entire shoe, encompassing the overlays, outsole, and even the Mamba sheath on the tongue.<\/p>\n<p>Ogunbowale\u2019s sneaker profile is modest to this point, her first release being a Nike GT Cut 2 \u201cBright Mandarin\u201d back in 2023. These aren\u2019t expected to see a public launch, though the fact that she laced them up suggests fans may have actual releases to look forward to down the line.
