The Kobe 6 FTB comes dressed in a River Rock color scheme, slowly beginning to “Fade to Black.” This Kobe 6 is inspired by a trip Kobe took to the Philippines in Manila back in 2011. It’s a nod to a pick-up game Kobe played in while visiting, along with the nations love for basketball. The Nike Kobe 6 is one of everyone’s favorite Nike Kobe model. It represents Kobe’s driven character, with an alter ego of the Black Mamba – which explains the snakeskin print displayed throughout its upper.
