The Duke Women’s Basketball Team Shares Images of its Nike Kobe 9 Low EM PE
Published
As one of the select schools sponsored by the Nike Kobe brand, the Duke Blue Devils have consistently received PE colorways across various models. Heading into the ACC Tournament, Duke’s women’s basketball squad is getting a boost from Nike with an exclusive colorway of the Nike Kobe 9 Low EM.
This new Duke PE marks yet another Kobe 9 Low EM PE seen in the collegiate circuit, as earlier in the year, select schools were receiving pairs of the Nike Kobe 9 Low EM Think Pink. Alongside these exclusives, the public will have a shot at owning the Kobe 9 Low EM model as part of a Team Bank collection coming Fall 2025. Previous Duke PEs from the Nike Kobe brand include a two-pack of Kobe 8 Protros from December 2023.

Across the engineered mesh upper, we see stark white hues employed, with pops of Duke’s iconic blue hue marking the Swoosh, nylon lace loops, and the cable system slightly visible through the perforated mesh on the midfoot. Duke branding replaces the Kobe sheath logo on the tongue, continuing the accenting blue hits, while we see black details applied to the sockliner. Finishing the design is the blue and white midsole with blue speckle details and a black rubber outsole.
The Nike Kobe 9 Low EM Duke PE will be exclusive to the student-athletes and coaching staff on Duke’s basketball team. Expect the women to wear the pair this Friday to kick off the ACC Tournament.
