The "Reverse Grinch" colorway promises to be a hit.

One of the best Kobe Bryant sneakers ever would have to be the Nike Kobe 6. Overall, this is a shoe that has boasted a ton of amazing colorways over the years. Moreover, the shoe is set to make a comeback in a big way. This is all thanks to the announcement that Nike would officially bring back the Kobe line. This is news that a lot of fans were hoping for.
