[Update 8 Apr 2025] Contrary to initial reports, the Nike Kobe 6 Protro “Dodgers” is slated for a wider release on 30 May through Nike SNKRS and select retailers. Nevertheless, find the pair on the SNKRDUNK App, which is now available due to the earlier store-exclusive launches.

[Update 3 Apr 2025] Vanessa Bryant has ascertained some of the Nike Kobe releases this year, including the Kobe 9 “Mambacita” the Kobe 4 “CHBL”, and the titular Kobe 6 “Dodgers”. The announcement comes alongside new images of the aforementioned pairs.

[Update 14 Mar 2025] The Nike Kobe 6 Protro “Dodgers” from the wider Kobe Game Royal Collection, initially slated for a Mamba Day (13 April) Nike SNKRS release (US$190), will drop early at UNDEFEATED. Releases occur on Saturday, 15 March at:

UNDEFEATED La Brea: 11AM (PST)
Undefeated.com: 8AM (PST)
UNDEFEATED Shibuya: 11AM (JST)
Undefeated.jp: 8AM (JST)

UNDEFEATED La Brea and Shibuya will host launch events from 11AM to 5PM local time. Also, Perry’s Shibuya will host a Dodgers season opener viewing party (food and music provided) on 18 and 19 March.

The highly anticipated Nike Kobe 6 Protro “Dodgers” is confirmed to hit stores next year. This colorway was first seen on the feet of the Los Angeles Dodgers themselves, a gift from Vanessa Bryant. It’s a tribute to Kobe’s love for his hometown and the legendary baseball team.

The shoe boasts a Game Royal upper with clean White accents and pops of University Red, mirroring the Dodgers’ classic colors. This design is sure to be a hit with fans of both Kobe and the Dodgers.

The original version for players had some special features like Kobe’s jersey number and stitching that looked like baseball seams, but it’s not clear yet if those will make it to the final release. Either way, these shoes promise to be both stylish and performance-oriented, a fitting tribute to Kobe’s legacy and his LA roots.

The Nike Kobe 6 Protro “Dodgers” is projected to land at select Nike Basketball stores and online, including Nike.com, next year. They’ll be available in men’s and kids’ sizes, with a rumored price tag of US$190 for the adult version.
