OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

$34 for some ugly socks haha. The Vault is crazy for the stuff they release, and the people are even crazier for paying for it.
400

Overhyped and overkill. All these "special" packages with just corny custom socks and their limited tag gets all the beasts
 
Hey guys, do I have a good shot at getting the Kobe VIII 'Christmas Lights' at online retailers or is it going to be the same situation as the Jordan Breds where the sites are going to crash and sell out right away?
Shouldn't be nearly as bad

footlocker might crash since theyre rereleasing the entire kilroy pack at the same time. best bet would be to try to get them from NDC.
 
I was curious so I took out the lunarlon insert and just put in a Spenco Cross-Trainer insole to feel a midsole-less shoe. :x crazy low to the ground but felt like my knees would shatter if I were to ball lol
 
Im confused!!! First they said they dont carry the kobes and now their saying that they are!!

anyone know any more info??
 
anyone planning to hitup the vault? I have no idea how early I would have to come for them but they should be getting a good number of pairs
 
The hell? Finish Line?

After reading about their troubles with their online releases ill def stay away from them.

I'm glad to hear the recent success stories thanks to the mobile site but personally, I stay away from them as much as I can

they arent selling the shoe alone. you have to get the $174 package that comes with the really ugly socks that arent worth the extra $34. if you do decide to go, theyre opening at 9 am and you have to line up for them.
 
Juz got my venomenon 3s Blk/sulfur! Can't wait for the coming 8s!!! We will.have the 8s in 26 (x'mas version), 27 (Blk/sulfur)

when the VIIs released there wasn't even a 13 online onrelease day on NDC. Only Eastbay/footlocker etc... Right now means nothing. Stores will get more. It's a GR. trust me, these will be widely available at outlets, at many outlets, in full size runs.
1/7/13
felt the same. If I did a phone order from the outlet (because I don't have any close to me) I'd be paying about the same, just went with the bday coupon.
more than likely wont be able to use online for a little while. Will probably say they're excluded from discount. Best bet is in store. Christmas pairs probably will be excluded also, or unless they're sitting for a few day which if its true what people are saying how wide of a release... It's a possibility.

So the Christmas Kobes should hit outlets?
 
maybe you havent, but others have.... I picked my chaos Vs up at my local foot locker. Grinches and cheetahs hit select footlockers, champs and foot actions. Even some boutiques got em. Cant forget eastbay.

in my area and state there are a few other stores that get the kobes

mainly its HOH tho

but the Brons and KDs are everywhere down here
