'Mambacita Sweet 16' Nike Kobe 6 Protro
Even with the future of the Nike Kobe line looming after the Kobe Bryant estate decided not to renew its contract with the brand, new colorways of the Kobe 6 Protro continue to surface.
Newly leaked images shared by @Brandon1an show a purported Nike Kobe 6 Protro “Mamba Forever” that’s rumored to hit shelves this summer. The shoe wears a simple black-based color scheme combined with white accents as a nod to the hues used for the Mamba and Mambacita Sports Foundation’s logo. Both the names of the late basketball legend and his daughter Gianna “Gigi” are stamped on the heel counter in honor of their lives after they tragically passed away in a helicopter crash last year.
As of now, neither Nike nor the Bryant estate have confirmed that this “Mamba Forever” Nike Kobe 6 Protro is in fact releasing, but stay tuned to Sole Collector for official updates. via SoleCollector.com

Nike Unveils Doernbecher Freestyle XVII Collection
Since 2004, the ‘Doernbecher Freestyle’ program created in partnership between Nike and OHSU Doernbecher Children’s Hospital has given over 100 young patient-designers the opportunity to create one-of-a-kind Nike footwear and apparel designs that are sold to benefit the hospital that saved their lives.
Over the years, the program has raised more than $30 million to help expand and support OHSU Doernbecher’s pioneering research and specialized care unavailable anywhere else in the region. 100% of the profits raised from the Doernbecher Freestyle program has been donated directly to the Children’s Hospital.
Nike has officially unveiled its Doernbecher Freestyle XVII collection, which includes seven unique designs across seven footwear silhouettes, as well as matching apparel and accessories to go along with each shoe. This year’s collection marks the first time that the patient-designers and Nike designers collaborated virtually to design their unique creations.
The auction for the Nike Doernbecher Freestyle XVII collection will run on eBay from from February 26th at 6pm CST to March 5th at 6pm CST. The products will also be available via Nike later this spring. via modern-notoriety.com

A Ma ManiƩre x Air Jordan 2 Retro SP
After delivering its Air Jordan 3 and Air Jordan 1 High collaborations to the world in 2021, A Ma ManiĆ©re has swiftly established itself as a force in the game of footwear. Through its stunning design language and impeccable storytelling, James Whitner — The Whitaker Group founder — and his team has elevated the way we look at the successful team-ups, and the brand is set to build upon its momentum with a brand new offering: the A Ma ManiĆ©re x Air Jordan 2 Retro SP.
Based off of the first leaked images of the shoes, we can already confirm that much of the same DNA that was found in the aforementioned makeups has rolled over to this iteration. In similar fashion to the Air Jordan 1, creamy cracked leathers are utilized for the base layer, and this is neighbored with a deep burgundy piping and heel counters as well as a stealthy gray mudguard. Additionally, you’ll find small doses of black along the laces, ball-and-wings logos on the tongues and the quilted interior lining. Other elements to bring to light include “ManiĆ©re” box logos that stand out in white on the heels, branded A Ma ManiĆ©re hang tags and blacked out snakeskin textures that are applied to the midsoles.
Peep an early glance at the kicks right here and note that these are expected to release sometime in the coming months. via Hypebeast.com

“Just Do It” Messaging And Bold Red Swooshes Animate The Next Nike Waffle One
The Nike Waffle One hasn’t been able to rid itself of comparisons to sacai’s highly-praised LDWaffle,
but it continues to carve out its own lane via compelling, playful style
For its latest ensemble, the vintage-inspired silhouette has emerged in hits of white, cream, grey and red for a spring and summer-appropriate look. Textile bases maintain their semi-translucence, while suede overlays around the toe and heel deliver a touch of durability to the ultra-lightweight pair. “Just Do It”-messaging lands on the latter area, sitting just above a cool grey molded heel clip, and below ruby-colored profile swooshes. Sole units opt for a tried-and-proven white and black color combination, with waffle-patterned tread being accompanied with a strip of red towards the rear.
Enjoy official images of the pair here below, and anticipate a Nike.com launch soon.
