The 2023 FIBA Basketball World Cup action is slated to kick off in Indonesia later this month, and the Team USA squad this year includes elite talent like Anthony Edwards, Paolo Banchero, Jalen Brunson, Mikal Bridges, Tyrese Haliburton and more. And for the global hoops showdowns, Nike is lacing up its hardwood representatives with special Kobe 6 Protro “Team USA” colorways, both of which have been previewed by New York Knicks guard Quentin Grimes.

Home and away colorways have been unveiled, both of which bear the traditional patriotic motif. The first pair comes treated with white scaly uppers and smooth leather rear panels and features deep navy Swooshes and interior liners. Striking red accents top off the tongues, laces and heel cages. Its counterpart is essentially styled in reversed fashion. Scale-covered parts of the base are treated with a USA-friendly navy hue while the Swooshes and cages are filled in with angelic finishes. Tongues and laces are consistent and usher in splashes of red. Both offerings feature camo graphics across the outsoles for extra flair.

It’s likely that these will be exclusive to Team USA players, but if any confirmation pops up regarding a public release, we’ll be sure to keep you updated. In case you need a new pair of Kobe 6s in your rotation, Flight Club got you.
