OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

Red Suede's look fresh in this review

 
Different strokes for different folks. I've had the Black EXTs for at least a month now and have been loving them. Never have to worry about what I have to throw on with those and can wear them with anything, unlike pretty much every other VIII with all the crazy patterns/colors we've gotten.

My pair comes in today, and as Bart Scott would say..."Can't wait!"

Loved those Black EXTs since the first pics surfaced...

And when Nightwing dropped his review video on them, I was sold!
 
red suedes are the ugliest of the 3 IMO, i also agree that Nike coulda done some dope *** colorways for Kobes YOTS pack seeing as he is Black Mamba and closing in on his retirement (which suxz :/)... i do believe nike fell short 
 
Hoping the Black YOTS fall under the radar. Please keep thinking "They're too plain." Saw all 4 kicks releasing this weekend. The only ones I'm interested in are the Black YOTS. The Red Suedes look clean in a different way, but not my cup of tea. I was high on the volts initially, but after seeing them not being exactly the volt color and more yellowish, they're an easy pass. Plus I did a volt iD that should be here at the end of the month which are much better IMO.

I wonder if they'll come out with a clean single colored upper like the ones Kobe wore. This camo/xmas print stuff needs to end...
 
Un-DS'd my second pair of sulphurs today. Shout out to Nike DC for the quick exchange of my last pair with the cracked shank plate.
 
I don't understand how nobody likes them either, the ASG is so nice in person and the detail is crazy.
I like the ASGs but not enough to cop for myself. My lady loves her pair, they look better in GS sizes IMO. It's something about the toe part of the shoe. It's too much orange where the toe front and the midsole meet. From that point on back the shoe looks good. Definitely not one of my favorites though.
 
EXT doesn't stand for extraterrestrial, heard it just stands for "Extended". Extraterrestrial is referring to the ASG/Area 72 colorway.

That's the point dude was making about the IG post, that herb tagged them extraterrestrial thinking that's what EXT stood for :lol:
 
Spoke to a manager at my local FNL this morning. Had 20-30 min conversation about releases (Small store that doesn't get many big releases other than the occasional Js). He said they aren't getting any of the Kobe's this weekend that FNL is slowly expanding the stores receiving Kobes as the month goes on. From what he gathered they were doing them on a trial basis to start by major markets/areas, and that the smaller stores could begin to receive Kobe shipments around the end of the month.

Just an FYI for those in small markets that don't seem to be getting any of the Kobe's at their respective FNLs.

I love my pair of ASGs, but I wouldn't say they're my favorite tho.

Christmas, Sulphurs and Purple Gradients (please release them in April Nike), are my top 3 so far...

Throw in Easters and Black EXTs, and that's my top 5.
 
Just went to the closest ftl to me. They did a raffle for the red camos, miss out on it tho.
Then I asked the manager if it was possible for me to see the shoe in person, she said "no, you can look em up online." Smh

NDC is b**** for that. While I;m happy for you that they exchanged your broken shank pair I'm they lied and told me they were completely out just recently
