Nike Kobe 6 Protro “All Star”
One of Kobe Bryant’s most historically popular signature models, the Nike Kobe 6, returns to the market in its Protro version in a fabulous red-black colorway.
A bit of history…
The sixth model from the Nike Basketball x Kobe Bryant collaboration debuted at Christmas 2010 in the legendary “Grinch” colorway as part of the Nike Basketball Christmas Day collection. Kobe then wore this model throughout the 2010–2011 season. The Lakers entered that season after back-to-back titles in 2008/09 and 2009/10, but they didn’t complete the three-peat and were eliminated in the Western Conference semifinals by that year’s champions, the Dallas Mavericks. For Kobe, it was one of the less successful seasons, yet he still averaged 25.3 points, 5.1 rebounds, and 4.7 assists per game.
The designer of this unforgettable model was one of Nike’s leading creators, Eric Avar, who, besides many Kobe models, also worked on iconic silhouettes such as the Nike Air Penny, Nike Air Foamposite, and Nike Zoom Ultraflight. His portfolio also notably includes the first Nike Hyperdunk, which Kobe Bryant introduced together with LeBron James at the 2008 Beijing Olympics.

As the colorway name suggests, this makeup was first introduced at the NBA All-Star Game in 2011, where Kobe Bryant played a great game—37 points, 14 rebounds, and 3 assists—leading the Western Conference team to a narrow win over the East, earning All-Star Game MVP.
