Vanessa Bryant has kept her promise to fans to help make Kobe sneakers more available. While Nike still has work to do to truly give all fans a chance to get a pair, 2023 saw the line officially relaunch, and 2024 has at least double the amount of expected drops compared to 2023. In addition to leaked retail releases like the two Kobe 8 Protro colorways scheduled for February 8, plenty of PE (Player Exclusive) pairs have surfaced from the five universities who now represent the Kobe brand on court. Between relaunching the brand and building out a bigger release calendar, Vanessa has also received special edition colorways for herself. This week, she took to Instagram to share two Valentine’s Day-themed colorways of the Kobe 4 and 8, a Leopard-themed 8, and Dodgers 6. As stated in her caption, these are PE pairs, but hopefully, it’s a sign to come for future releases.

Check out our full preview of this year’s Kobe releases on the SoleSavy Podcast.

Sole Savy is unreal! With a busy schedule it’s hard to keep up on shoes, and the group keeps me up to date on releases, tips on how to manually cop, and a marketplace with killer deals from fellow like minded collectors. It’s changed the sneaker game for me!

@SoleSavy is the truth. They've helped me cop kicks I never would've imagined getting at retail. Members always willing to assist on drops too. And most of all, a REAL community of REAL sneakerheads. These guys should be the gold standard for sneaker communities! #LifetimeMember

My membership paid for itself three fold by being solely responsible for my union 4’s, mesh sacai waffles, sacai blazers, court purple aj1s, glow in the dark yeezy 350s, travis scott lows (which I traded to get desert ore ow’s), air max 1 londons, bc3’s for way under retail etc.

Can't say enough about SS. The stellar help with copping shoes is a given but it's the community that makes it extra special. Hands down one of the best decisions I made as a wannabe sneakerhead.

The community of sneakerheads and resources available to help manually cop are great and really will help you get more Ws. The Zoom calls for hyped drops like Union Jordan 4 only adds to the camaraderie while providing real time instruction
