Nike is bringing back one of the most unforgettable Kobe 6 colorways ever: the Nike Kobe 6 3D Hollywood. And this drop comes at the perfect time for an LA-themed drop! This drop will take us back to 2011, keep all the classic elements, but it ups the game with the Protro treatment. So, grab your movie glasses, and let’s check out what these babies are all about, shall we? After all, we know that a good retro is always worth the attention, especially if it’s a Kobe!

The Kobe 6 3D Hollywood Origins
The Kobe 6 3D Hollywood originally came out in 2011 as a special edition celebrating the NBA All-Star Game at the then-Staples Center. While Kobe Bryant didn’t lace them up in the game itself, the silhouette stole the show during his interview with Conan O’Brien! And then, it cemented itself as an iconic pair when he wore it for his Hollywood Walk of Fame induction. So, if you want a cool shoe with a story, this is it!
A Design That Pops & 3D Movie Inspiration
What sets the Kobe 6 3D apart visually is its unique three-dimensional upper. Inspired by the red/blue 3D glasses craze of the early 2010s, the textured, reptilian-like surface appears to shift depth when viewed through 3D glasses! And well, the 2026 Protro will include a set of 3D glasses so collectors can experience the effect as intended.

The mismatched color scheme of blue and red on each side is another nod to the 3D technology! These colors hit the Swooshes, TPU heel clips, and Kobe sheath logos for extra pop. Finally, the inner tongue updates nod to 2026 with graphics of the 3D glasses and a year stamp, tying past and present together.
Modern Performance Upgrades
While the look is nostalgic, the Kobe 6 3D Hollywood Protro isn’t just a throwback. Nike’s Protro treatment boosts on-court performance with:
- Cushlon foam cushioning replaces the original Phylon midsole
- A larger Zoom Turbo unit in the forefoot for better responsiveness
- Reworked rubber outsole for enhanced traction
These upgrades make the Kobe 6 3D more playable and comfortable than its 2011 predecessor.
