Zoom Kobe 6 Protro "Grinch"

Nike reintroduced the iconic Zoom Kobe 6 'Grinch' silhouette in 2020, reviving a colorway that first debuted in 2010 as part of the Nike Basketball Christmas Day Collection. The shoe pays homage to Kobe Bryant's Black Mamba persona with a vibrant Green Apple and Volt textured upper, reminiscent of snake scales. While the design closely resembles the original, this iteration features modern upgrades under the Protro treatment. These enhancements include a more responsive Zoom Air cushioning system for improved performance on the court. Additionally, the traction pattern is scaled down to enhance grip and court feel. The shoe's silhouette has also been refined, offering a lower, sleeker profile. This release showcases Nike's commitment to blending iconic design elements with cutting-edge technology to deliver a shoe that honors Kobe Bryant's legacy while meeting the performance demands of today's athletes.
