Nike is paying tribute to Kobe Bryant with a Los Angeles Dodgers-themed collection set to drop on May 30.
Aside from playing for the Los Angeles Lakers his entire NBA career, Bryant was a documented Dodgers fan through and through, which is exactly why this new Nike x Kobe Bryant "Dodgers" is the perfect tribute to the sports legend. The capsule is lead by the Nike Kobe 6 "Dodgers," which feature a royal blue and white upper characterized by white laces. Present on the sides are red #8s on the ankles, which pay homage to Bryant's number worn throughout the first half of his career.
Per Nike, there's also the incorporation of the Nike x Kobe Dodgers jersey, which includes a white design with the word "Mamba" stamped onto the middle in a blue color. The back of the jersey sports a bold #24, which references the number worn by Bryant during the second half of his career.

Decked out in a royal blue color pattern, the tee features the #24, and a "Thank You" message on the right side.
