Debuting in 2011, the Kobe VI’s lightweight and low-top design kept up with Kobe’s demanding style of play. This Protro version upgrades the original with Cushlon foam to help keep you fresh for four quarters. And, of course, we couldn’t leave out the snakeskin-like print that made the VI famous.
The Kobe 6 Protro has a sleek, scaly upper inspired by its moniker, Black Mamba. Lower, sleeker and with a faster look, it features a large, flexible Air Zoom Turbo unit, responsive foam and low-profile traction for a better feel on the court.
Flexible and effective
The Air Zoom Turbo unit provides responsive and soft cushioning in the forefoot. It’s flexible, so it works at multiple angles.
Softness with every step
The Cushlon Foam in the midsole provides a cushioned feeling on the sole of the foot that goes smoothly from heel to toe.
Inspired by Mamba
We simplified the layers of the upper while maintaining the iconic reptile skin graphic design.
Ground
Contact The reduced traction pattern helps enable contact close to the ground while lightening the weight.
