Jalen Brunson lit up the court last night with a first look at the Nike Kobe 6 Protro “Statue of Liberty” PE, worn during Game 2 of the Knicks' playoff matchup against the Indiana Pacers. While New York now trails 0-2 in the series, Brunson made a statement—not just with his play, but with his footwear.
The upcoming colorway pulls inspiration from one of New York’s most recognizable symbols: the Statue of Liberty. Its minty green upper mimics the oxidized copper of the landmark, while a metallic bronze heel clip adds structure and ties the concept together. The copper textured Swoosh and Kobe logos round out the detailing.

Brunson, now cemented as the face of the Knicks, has become a central figure in Nike Basketball’s growing slate of player exclusives. And this PE won’t stay exclusive for long—Nike is expected to release the “Statue of Liberty” Kobe 6 during the Holiday 2025 season.
Fans can expect the sneaker to land on Nike SNKRS and at select retailers later this year so stay locked onto our twitter for further updates.
