The Nike Kobe 6 Protro returns in a Total Orange/Cosmic Clay/Metallic Silver colorway, releasing May 12, 2026 at 10:00 AM ET for $190. The Kobe 6 Protro line has seen renewed momentum in 2026, with player exclusives appearing on-court during the WNBA opener and NBA playoff games drawing attention back to the silhouette.
Originally released during Kobe Bryant's 2010-11 season, the Kobe 6 is regarded as one of the most performance-focused low-tops Nike ever produced. The Protro version preserves the original's low-cut profile and responsive cushioning while updating materials for modern play. The silhouette's agility-focused design has made it a continued choice among guards and forwards at multiple levels of the game.
