Kobe Bryant was a legend in basketball but he was also a pioneer when it came to basketball sneakers. Of course, Kobe had an unsuccessful stint with Adidas before switching over to Nike in the 2000s. One of his most popular models was none other than the Nike Kobe 6 which dropped back in 2011. Now, the sneaker is about to get a Protro since 2021 marks the 10-year anniversary of the silhouette. Fans are extremely excited about this prospect and as it turns out, there are plenty of dope retros in the works, including one of the "Grinch" colorway.

The Twitter sneaker insider account @soleheatonfeet has been providing fans with an abundance of information in regards to these Protros and the latest colorway to be revealed is the infamous 3D-Hollywood offering which dropped around the 2011 All-Star game. As you can see, there is a snake-like upper covered in red, blue, and black. This colorway is actually a fan-favorite and based on the reactions, people are excited to try and add these to their collection.

For now, all we know is that they will be dropping in 2021. An official release date has yet to be announced so stay tuned for details.

Ever since Kobe Bryant’s tragic passing, there has been an increase in demand for Kobe sneakers, particularly the ones he wore with Nike. Over the past few years, Nike has been coming out with some Protros of Kobe’s best silhouettes and in 2021, they will be continuing that trend, with the Nike Zoom Kobe 6.

This is easily one of the best models in the Kobe Bryant library and over the past week, we have received word on numerous colorways, including a re-release of the infamous “Grinch” colorway. According to @zsneakerheadz, two more models will be dropping in 2021, including the black and gold “Del Sol” model and the infamous pink “Pinkfire” offering. Both of these models were incredibly popular when they dropped and based on the comments section in the post below, fans are very excited to get their hands on some sneakers that they have been craving for.

The exact release dates for these colorways are unknown as of right now so stay tuned for updates as we will be sure to bring you all of the latest information. Also, let us know in the comments below whether or not you plan on copping either of these classic colorways.

Kobe Bryant has left behind an incredible basketball legacy that not only includes some incredible accomplishments on the basketball court but some iconic sneakers as well. Over the past few years, Nike has been honoring Kobe with some Protro versions of his early Nike silhouettes, and now, it appears as though he will be receiving the same thing in the form of the Nike Zoom Kobe 6.

This particular model led to some great colorways and we will certainly see some of them retroed in the new year. According to SoleHeatOnFeet, one of the first colorways of the Nike Zoom Kobe 6 Protro will be similar to his "All-Star" offering which was known for its red, white, and black aesthetic.
