The popularity of the Nike Kobe line is at an all-time high as fans and athletes channel their inner Mamba Mentality. Commemorating the late Kobe Bryant’s childhood in Italy, the Nike Kobe 6 Protro “Italian Camo” returns for the first time since its debut in 2011.
This sleek basketball shoe flaunts camouflage prints throughout the snakeskin-inspired synthetic upper, paying homage to the Italian military uniforms. Vibrant orange hues highlight the Swooshes on the sides, the sheath logo on the tongue, and Bryant's signature on the TPU moulded heel counter. Softer and more durable Cushlon foam replaces the original model’s Phylon setup, encasing a massive Zoom Air Turbo unit in the forefoot for springy cushioning. Reptile-inspired traction patterns deliver consistent traction on the playing court, stabilised by a rigid carbon fibre shank plate.
Set to release on 13th April 2024 for £165 via the Nike SNKRS app as well as limited UK retailers like Footpatrol and BSTN, you can find out where to get your hands on the Nike Kobe 6 Protro “Italian Camo” by keeping it locked to The Sole Supplier!
