Introduced in a memorable holiday match-up on the biggest of stages the Association has to offer, the ‘Grinch’ becoming an instant fan-favorite could quite literally be seen from a mile away for more reasons than one. From the legendary night at Staples that saw the Mamba and several teammates lace up the neon green pair to Kobe fans and sneaker collectors alike, the colorway ranks among the all-timers whether ’tis the season or not.
As the name suggests, the Reverse edition of the Nike Kobe VI flips the colors of the original ‘Grinch’ pair for a revamped take on the Christmas-themend colorway: While the snakeskin textured upper is clad in Bright Crimson, the laces and the Kobe branding on the tongues as well as the laces boast the Electric Green that made the original stand out like a sore thumb. Sleek black Swooshes and a durable rubber sole round out the pair.
The Nike Kobe VI Protrop ‘Reverse Grinch’ releases at BSTN on Friday, December 15th. For your chance to purchase a pair, make sure to enter the BSTN Raffle before Thursday, December 14th, at 3 pm CET via the button below.
