I feel this way abou the DKs....I love'em but they just seems to have worn down faster & are more "flimsy" like KG said.

I wonder if that's the same case as POP. I just got them yesterday. Planning to wear dem this summer.
 
Lol I thought I was the only one who felt that way about the DKs. They're a top 3 cw for me, but they've really worn down a lot compared to my other Vs with the sole yellowing/browning and even small parts of the upper have slight tears. I might pick up another pair down the road though

Shot answer: YES!
I have a small foot, but it's wide and I can wear a 10.5 and play basketball in them and not worry about front to back movement due to the width of my foot.

Comparing to the LeBron VIIs, I have 6 pairs all in size 10 and even then they're quite roomy. The fit is completely different so there really is no comparison.

I have wide feet. Because of the inner line on these kobe shoes, it makes the fit snug. So, if you're planning to wear them for playing ball, go half size up. For casual wear, I have to go 1 size up.....
 
Nice BS Away MJRod ^^......I wish I didn't sell my 2nd pair

In a hunt for another pair with Nike Vault label on it

I totally agree that the DK's seem to feel more loose as compared to other colorways, but I like it. I feel it gives more mobility when balling. For some reason, for me at least, the Del Sols feel more stiff than other colorways. The other colorways I ball in regularly are the Inlines, Inks, and UWR.
 
^Nice BS Aways MJRod, I still haven't even seen a pair of those in person yet.....I am happy with my 2 pairs of BS Homes though.
 
Here are my Kobe Vs. This is by far the most pairs of 1 shoe that I've ever had. The combination of looks, performance and casual comfort puts the Kobe V in contention for my favorite shoe. Of all time. 
While I'm still thinking of IDing two more pair, here's what I've got right now. 

I figure I look in to this thread so often, it's about time I contribute!
 
^Nice photo's, those all white Ace's are looking nice, starting to tempt me to get a pair of those.

mjrod, dope bs aways......

an808, dope home lower merions....

On the hunt for both shoes!!
 
^ i was on the hunt for the homes for a while, too. check out ebay seller sneakers_4_you. they've got em for 110, in most sizes, too.

anybody have any yellow based IDs? i think i need to see 1 pic before i pull the trigger.

no matter how much i play around with the 6s on ID, they just don't seem right. the 5s on the other hand...
 
I like the ID options on the Vs better than the options for the VIs too. The gradient options for the VIs are kinda cool, but I think there's just more detail you can put on the Vs, like the print on the upper, splatter on the midsoles, etc.
