Purchase Kobe Bryant's Sneaker History by Pat Benson: go.weartesters.com/kobesneakerhistory It's a great use for your Christmas cash or as a late gift to a Kobe or shoe loving friend!
Your content help me through my cancer I love your videos because ur honest and give out good and positive vibes to much negative on RUclips so you're channel is my getaway you and the wife keep up da good content and may the lord continue to bless you
Lakers fan Kobe fan grew up in LA I ain’t payin that much for no shoes. People keep buying shoes up and making 200% profit I like the shoes but I ain’t getting robbed for shoes not the The Question and those are my fav shoes
It amazes me how you’re the only person who does actual shoe reviews. Everyone else just states the obvious -“here we have the volt upper and a black swoosh”😒
They're here!!!! Well almost. We were able to pick up the Nike Kobe 6 Protro and here's what you can expect when you grab yours. Let us know what you think of them down below. Happy holidays! And thanks for watching.
I love these! I bought them when they first released. All I have left are the laces. I got hit riding a bike wearing these. Now I know why I didn't die!
I started watching your channel with the og Kobe 6 review back in middle school, which I did get a pair eventually in high school . Now I’m a masters student, thanks for all these years with your awesome reviews 👍
I watch several sneaker RUclipsrs, but when it comes to actually analyzing the performance of a sneaker no one does it better. The deep dive on the technology inside the sneaker is A1.
i was born in 1990 i remember a bit of mj in the 97 and 98 finals but i grew up being a kobe fan he was my mj never had a pair of kobes i always wanted one and yesterday i got a W on the snkrs app and im really happy it was this shoe RIP to the mamba 🐍🐐
I’m really hoping that if things go as I think, we’re getting a Kobe 9 protro. Those with new cushioning would be incredible. And especially if they are in the What The color way (first shoes I fell in love with and I still want to this day)
The 6 is my favorite model of Kobe's entire signature line. Wasn't able to cop a pair today, but I'm fortunate enough to have a DS pair from 2010. As a result of missing out today, I'll be rocking my 2010s tomorrow to break them in. Don't want them cracking on me another 10 years down the line. Congrats to all who got a pair.
this has become my favorite sneaker channel, we both some from the same area. i was born in hayward and raised in tracy. we are also around the same age so we grew with the same shoes and there is a lot of shoes during the 90s and early 00's that were fire but would never get the attention of this generation of sneaker culture
I remember following after I watched the initial Kobe vi performance review and thought wow, this is what shoe reviews could be. Happy that this channel has stood the test of time! And also hasn’t reduced in quality of the technical breakdown; when I used to play basketball regularly I’d always watch your videos before purchasing a shoe (the options I gave myself were limited to the ones you made videos on because I trusted your take as being more objective than others). Happy holidays Nightwing family
Finally got one - won a raffle - and at retail. I was not paying AUD$600 for these from resellers. I'm so happy and have been rewatching this every day. RIP Kobe. I can't believe I have these either, Chris. 🙏❤️
Was looking forward to this video and you talking about the heel cushion. You went crazy on the tech spec details and thats why you're the best sneaker reviewer on YT. Thanks for the schooling.
Lol I love you guys! Best couple right here I swear. Y’all just seem perfect together and you guys give us amazing content and I just enjoy every single video!
I finally added these to the collection i missed out on the 2010 release but as an LA native I'm glad they brought these back. I had to pay resell but worth every dollah!
Thank you WearTesters for all you do! Picked up "the best outdoor basketball shoe" the Nike Air Zoom Turbo GP for $32 ($140 at nike) at a Ross. Would have passed them right over if I hadnt watched it
I was waiting for this review!!! That's my third fav Kobe shoe ever (Kobe I both Nike and adidas OG are tied for the number one spot) and still have my OG Pop del sol pair in pretty good condition, but I hope to get a pair of protros soon. Happy holidays Chris, Jodie and all the WT family!
🔥WING🔥 Back again bro, and man did I come back for such a crazy sneaker. These will forever be a classic, the whole universe will be going for these. From the colors to the story and the history, just an excellent shoe. This will be an awesome piece to finally add to the collection. RIP to the MAMBA 🐍 AS ALWAYS 🔥🔥🔥 THE BEST DAMN DUO IN THE GAME🔥🔥🔥 CHRIS AND JODI 🔥🔥🔥
Very awesome vid Chris! From your last vid for Kobe 6 last 2010, and then your vid for your ASG Colorway last year, and then this one! Reminds me from your vid last 2010 when I was in Highschool, and now I'm a working man! Happy Holidays Weartesters fam! 🔥🔥
Chris that's awesome intro for the Kobe Grinch...Merry Christmas🎄 too your family from my family...keep grinding you guy's best sneaker you tubers hands down...
Came back because of the renewed deal with Nike and Kobe. I only got the grinches and Bruce lees which I love but I can’t wait to see what they heat got coming🔥
Oh man, you just made me more excited for these! I can’t wait till 27! I just won the raffle & the schedule for claiming is on 27 for my size! Much love from Ph🇵🇭!
Got the early access on SNKRS. They came Friday then the gyms opened back up here Saturday. That was Christmas for me. Made up for every shoe I didn’t hit on this year
I’m going to be watching your videos until I either go blind or pass away! Thanks for the reviews man! I kinda miss the movie reviews and Nightwing Knows!
I'm not a Kobe basketball shoe fan but I'd give these a shot just because NDubb said so otherwise I still play in 90s uptempos with my wide foot 13. Uptempo 94 2 Dukes are my fave to hoop in of all-time
Great intro! Loved my pair of og grinches, was lucky to score a pair... but sold them off when i cleared my "heat" collection years ago. Might try to pick ip the protro!
600,000 pairs.. still have a feeling I'll take Ls. Trying to grab two to hoop in, will end up paying resale if I have to. Definitely my favorite Kobe model and colorway ever. The 6s and the 8s are the best for hooping imo too.
Kobe 6's are my fave basketball shoes of all time too! How I wish it's full length zoom or atleast still have that heel zoom... anyways keep on grinding guys I enjoy every video happy hollidays!
I wish I can afford this but due to the pandemic, my priorities has been bills and foods for my kids. Very nice pick up for those are able to get it. Happy holidays to everyone and stay safe.
Lucked out on every Kobe V. Obviously! But got the V Bruce Lee Alt. slightly over retail. Finally. Such a great shoe. Hoping for the Grinches. Wanted them in 2010 but could not get them. Good luck to everyone who really wants them.
Chris i been waiting for this review! Cause I know this your favorite Kobe shoe and mines as well to ball in. I was lucky enough to hit on SNKRS. This color way specifically will be for casual and hope i can land two different color way of the the 6.
Kobe 8s are my favorite Kobe’s, most comfortable for my feet, great traction, light weight, breathability, most importantly, flexibility , only problem I give the Kobe 8s is durability, the mesh would always rip after hard miles, Kobe 10s most durable but that’s for another day lol
Finally a proper review of these guys...if anyone deserved a win on theses guys it would be you...and kinda surprised you would pick the 6 over the kobe 9...Happy Holidays,guys...🎄🎁
It sucks that they removed tech from the heel. Tbh it's really unfortunate to me that the Kobe line is being resold at crazy high prices right now, and how hard it is to get a pair. Like you said, most hoopers have a certain line that they enjoy, and for me I jumped between the Jordan signature when I could get a pair on sale and the kobe lineup. I even doubled up on the kobe 9's because I loved playing in them so much. However, now with the resell prices as high as they are, I can't bring myself to put my fresh pair of 9's on the court anymore. Not when I'm a poor student. Those represent a good couple of months of food money now. And forget about picking up any kobe signatures on discount to play in anymore like I used to. So while I'm glad the Kobe line is receiving mainstream attention, it sucks that a lot of the old fans of the line like me are softlocked out of getting the shoes to play in.
Live for Jodi fun facts! Merry Christmas 🎄 to you guys from Australia! Appreciate all you do ❤️ Fun fact: my Thing #1 is a theatre kid too, so Chris: I feel your pain brother 🤣
I can’t wait to get these but I still feel like they’re doing a little disservice to Kobe. He said he wants the protro line to continue to push performance forward... I get these are better than the OG with the zoom turbo but why take out the heal zoom unit? The protro 1 was a legit huge improvement but then the 4 has less tech too. Still excited for these 6s though lol
I feel you...I was hoping for better cushion upgrade compared to the 5’s... to me it’s basically like the 5’s with a different upper and the price point damnnnn.
@@jayburden7382 That is what the 6's were originally as well. The OG Kobe 5 and Kobe 6 share the same exact tech specs -- just different uppers and tooling.

when Chris says: "this is my favorite shoes of all time" there are 10 pairs that comes in to my mind 😇
Only 10?
The whole penny line includes at least 20 lol

The red laces should be the ones on the shoe out the box, they just fit so damn well 🔥
MY MOST ANTICIPATED SHOE PREVIEWED BY MY MOST FAVORITE RUclipsR... Christmas is gonna be gooooooood
Chris thank you for releasing this vid early. I’m taking my morning poop and this is getting me in a good Christmas spirit. 🌲
💩🚽
He’s back but with another morning poop 🤣
Best poop of the day
One of the few reviewers who I can rely on to include a coherent walkthrough of the tech specs. Always interested in the updates made in the protros.
my favorite Kobe shoe...nostalgia, glad they brought them back
Idk how to explain this but this video coming out just made me so happy
i was born in 1990 i remember a bit of mj in the 97 and 98 finals but i grew up being a kobe fan he was my mj never had a pair of kobes i always wanted one and yesterday i got a W on the snkrs app and im really happy it was this shoe RIP to the mamba 🐍🐐
Man I need these bad!! One of the greatest colorways of shoes ever!!! RIP Kobe, Gigi, and everyone else passed in the helicopter crash!!🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
I’m really hoping that if things go as I think, we’re getting a Kobe 9 protro. Those with new cushioning would be incredible. And especially if they are in the What The color way (first shoes I fell in love with and I still want to this day)
And we're getting a rumored 9 Protro Halo!
It’s so cool seeing all the different colourways together. Also randomly got happy when nightwing scratched the holographic heel counter on the five.
The 6 is my favorite model of Kobe's entire signature line. Wasn't able to cop a pair today, but I'm fortunate enough to have a DS pair from 2010. As a result of missing out today, I'll be rocking my 2010s tomorrow to break them in. Don't want them cracking on me another 10 years down the line. Congrats to all who got a pair.
this is great! i remember watching the original kobe 6 review all these years ago. crazy to see how far youve come, man
Kobe 5s and 6s are my favorite Kobe’s to hoop in. With the 1s right behind them.
this has become my favorite sneaker channel, we both some from the same area. i was born in hayward and raised in tracy. we are also around the same age so we grew with the same shoes and there is a lot of shoes during the 90s and early 00's that were fire but would never get the attention of this generation of sneaker culture
So glad you got a pair of these, you deserve them
SNKRS APP is going to be loading stockings full of L's. Merry Christmas.
Facts 😥
I can't wait to get mine! The L that is. Lol.
Ikr only guarantee is a L. Don’t get your hopes up.
🤣🤣🤣
Already took mine :(
The Nike Kobe 6 stole Christmas ❤️💚❤️💚
Seriously LOVE that you are both on camera now.
Best shoetubers ever. You guys spread nothing but positivity and good vibes
That intro wins sneaker intro of the year for me.

These kobes are my fav of all time, it brought back sooo much memories when I trained with these bad boys. The heels are sooo low and flat..
this pair would be the best gift this Christmas
I finally added these to the collection i missed out on the 2010 release but as an LA native I'm glad they brought these back. I had to pay resell but worth every dollah!
