FAQs

What does 'Protro' mean?

'Protro' is a portmanteau of 'performance' and 'retro', indicating that this is a modern update of a classic Nike shoe, featuring updated technology for improved performance while retaining the original design aesthetic.

Are these shoes good for wide feet?

The Nike Kobe 6 Protro generally has a medium width fit. While the lacing system allows for some adjustment, individuals with significantly wide feet may find them snug. It's recommended to try them on if possible.

What is the main difference between the Kobe 6 Protro and the original Kobe 6?

The Protro version incorporates modern performance enhancements like improved cushioning, materials, and fit, while the original Kobe 6 was designed with the technology available at its initial release. The 'All-Star 2.0' also features a unique raised star pattern on the upper, differentiating it from some other Kobe 6 releases.

What is the inspiration behind the 'All-Star 2.0' colorway and design?

The colorway uses neutral tones inspired by a snake shedding its skin. The raised star pattern adds a new dimension to the shoe's visual appeal, offering a fresh take on the iconic Kobe 6 silhouette.

Can I wear these for everyday casual use?

Yes, the Nike Kobe 6 Protro 'All-Star 2.0' is designed with a distinctive aesthetic that makes it suitable and stylish for everyday casual wear, in addition to its performance capabilities.

What is the typical lifespan of these shoes with regular use?

With proper care and regular use for basketball, the lifespan typically ranges from 6 months to over a year, depending on the intensity of play and playing surface. For casual wear, they will last considerably longer.

How does the 'GS' sizing work?

GS stands for 'Grade School'. This sizing is designed for children and pre-teens. It typically starts from smaller sizes and goes up to youth sizes that correspond to smaller adult sizes.

Troubleshooting

Laces keep coming undone

Ensure laces are tied securely with a double knot if necessary. Consider replacing laces with ones that offer better grip.

Uneven wear on the outsole

Check your playing style and technique. Ensure you are performing movements correctly to distribute wear evenly. Rotate shoes if used frequently for different activities.

Material appears stiff initially

This is common with new performance footwear. Wear the shoes for shorter periods initially to allow them to break in and mold to your feet.

Difficulty cleaning the textured upper

Use a soft brush (like a toothbrush) with mild soap and water to gently clean the textured areas. Rinse thoroughly with a damp cloth and allow to air dry.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Care:

To maintain the appearance and integrity of your Nike Kobe 6 Protro 'All-Star 2.0':

  • Cleaning the Upper: Gently wipe the raised star pattern and Sail upper with a soft, slightly damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scrubbing, which could damage the texture.
  • Suede/Nubuck Care: If any parts of the shoe feature suede-like material, use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt and restore texture.
  • Soles: Clean the rubber outsole with a damp cloth. For stubborn dirt, a mild soap solution can be used, followed by wiping with a clean, damp cloth.
  • Drying: Always air dry the shoes away from direct heat sources like radiators or direct sunlight, as this can cause materials to crack or warp.
  • Storage: Store in a cool, dry place, preferably in a shoe bag or the original box to protect from dust and damage.
