August 24 works out to 8/24, and those are the two numbers Bryant wore in Los Angeles - he remains the only player for whom one franchise has retired two jerseys. Both hang in the rafters, and the date has since been kept as Kobe Bryant Day.
By 2018 he had been retired two years, having closed a twenty-season career with five championships and eighteen All-Star selections. Nike's Protro program was reissuing his older signature models with updated cushioning and materials rather than as straight retros, and the first shoe in the line was the obvious place to start.
Undefeated's version of it was sold only at the store's La Brea location in Los Angeles. The upper is textile printed with a low-contrast yellow camouflage, and the leather Swoosh and synthetic collar are picked out in black against it.
