What is the primary difference between this and the original Kobe 6?

How do I best preserve the white outsole?
Regularly cleaning the soles after each wear with a dedicated sneaker wipe or damp cloth will prevent deep staining.

Yes, the insoles are removable, allowing for the use of custom orthotics if required for additional support.
What does 'Protro' mean?

Troubleshooting
Visible dirt on the starry upper
Use a microfiber cloth dampened with water and a tiny amount of mild detergent, gently patting rather than rubbing.
Reduced traction during play
Wipe the outsole with a slightly damp towel to remove dust build-up that accumulates on gym floors.
Creasing at the toe box
Insert a shoe tree when not in use to help the synthetic material maintain its shape.
