No matter how much time passes, Kobe Bryant will always remain in the hearts and minds of sports fans all over the world. That is especially true for Angelinos. On Friday night, the Los Angeles Dodgers honored Kobe, Gigi, and the Bryant family at their annual Los Angeles Lakers Night with a heartfelt ceremony.

The Dodgers honored Bryant's oldest daughter, Natalia Bryant, with throwing out the ceremonial first pitch before the game. While it is always great to see the Bryant family smiling, it is extra cool when they show off some new sneakers from the legendary Nike Kobe signature line. 

Natalia debuted the Nike Kobe 6 Protro in a never-before-seen "Dodgers" colorway. The color-bocking and attention to detail were a homerun. Check out the detailed picture of the unreleased kicks below.

The Nike Kobe 6 Protro "Dodgers" features a faux snakeskin-inspired upper in Dodgers blue, contrasted by white laces, midsoles, as well as the Nike and Kobe logos. The chef's kiss for the shoe is the red stitching around the tongues, which is an obvious nod to baseball.

At this time, there is no reporting indicating that Nike will release the Nike Kobe 6 Protro "Dodgers." However, fans can monitor our continuously updated Nike Kobe release calendar, which has over nine entries scheduled for the next year.

The Bryant family has deep ties to the Dodgers organization, and it is cathartic to see Los Angeles' royal family have a good time in Dodger Stadium. Stay locked into FanNationKicks.com for all your sneaker news.
