The highly anticipated Nike Kobe 6 Protro “Dodgers” is officially set to hit shelves in Summer 2025. This shoe, first unveiled as a Player Exclusive by Vanessa Bryant earlier this year, pays homage to Kobe’s love for the Los Angeles Dodgers and his hometown.

Previously showcased by Vanessa Bryant as a Player Exclusive (PE), the Nike Kobe 6 Protro “Dodgers” features a vibrant Game Royal upper, complemented by crisp White detailing and striking University Red accents. These elements work together to evoke the classic Dodgers aesthetic, making the shoe a must-have for fans of both Kobe Bryant and the storied baseball franchise.

While the Player Exclusive version included special touches like Kobe’s number “8” on the lateral ankles and baseball stitching along the tongues, it remains uncertain whether these unique details will carry over to the retail version. Regardless, the sneaker promises to deliver a visually striking and performance-ready design that honors Kobe’s legacy and his connection to Los Angeles.
