Nike Kobe 5 Dodgers (GS)

The Nike Kobe 5 'Dodgers' (GS) pairs a low-cut basketball silhouette with a distinctive baseball detail. A bold Hyper Royal upper is offset by light-coloured Swooshes and red stitching reminiscent of the seams on a baseball. The colourway references the Los Angeles Dodgers and celebrates Kobe Bryant's connection to Los Angeles. Its design also carries forward the thinking behind the original Kobe V, unveiled in 2009. Kobe Bryant wanted his next shoe to be lower and lighter than its predecessor, drawing inspiration from the freedom of movement footballers enjoyed in low-cut footwear. This GS edition brings that approach to older kids' basketball shoes.

A lightweight, minimally structured upper provides a supportive feel without building up the collar around the ankle. Perforations in the tongue and toe box help with ventilation, while traditional laces allow the fit to be adjusted. Soft foam underfoot delivers cushioning, and a split outsole helps optimise court contact for traction when changing direction. Built for basketball, this edition combines the model's low profile with baseball-inspired details that give its athletic design a distinctive Los Angeles identity.
