One of Kobe Bryant’s classic playoff sneakers will be making a return this week. Nike is re-releasing the Kobe 6 Protro “POP,” which stands for “Playoff Pack.” Bryant wore this sneaker throughout the Los Angeles Lakers’ 2011 playoff run.

With a clean white, yellow and black upper after the Lakers’ team colours, the Kobe 6 also featured a snakeskin texture that made it one of the most popular silhouettes from Bryant’s signature line.

While Vanessa Bryant and the Bryant estate announced in April that they would not renew their contract with Nike, the brand is still pushing out the last of its scheduled Kobe releases, which continue to be in hot demand.

The Nike Kobe 6 Protro “POP” releases on June 3rd at a retail price of US$190.
