Vanessa Bryant Teases Nike Kobe 6 Colorways for 2025

Vanessa Bryant has unveiled an exclusive new colorway of the Nike Kobe 6 Protro, dubbed the 'Purple Checkerboard,' showcasing a vibrant gradient design that transitions from deep purple to lavender with striking checkerboard patterns. The sneaker features a light teal Swoosh and is speculated to potentially align with significant events in February, such as Valentine’s Day or Black History Month. Although the shoe has garnered excitement on social media, it is currently unclear if it will be released to the public, as it may remain exclusive to Vanessa and select Nike athletes. In addition to this release, Nike is planning several other Kobe-themed sneakers under the Year of the Mamba Collection, including the Kobe 5 Protro in Eggplant and University Red. Vanessa has consistently used her platform to honor Kobe Bryant's legacy through unique sneaker designs. Fans are eagerly awaiting further details on the release and inspiration behind this new colorway.
