OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

I almost don't want the wtk anymore and I've liked them all along. Just don't care to go after a shoe where people are using bots to buy and strictly buying to sell. I also don't like to buy a shoe that makes a ftl employee thinks he's top flight security of the world because he has it.
 
If the Preludes are indeed gonna be dumb limited via JMadidas, I'm not even wasting my time trying to get enthused about them..

Shoes aren't even shoes anymore..

It's like competing in the Olympics for a trophy..

Footlocker times square :rofl:
 
Not one person sitting in these damn chairs. If anyone wants to camp for two days you can be #1 :lol:
 
I don't feel like camping for two days or else I'd sit right in front with no damns given. I'll see what's up on 34th. Probably same ****
 
Seriously, I'm surprised someone or even an homeless person hasn't came and swooped them chairs up.

You New Yorkers are going to let those ghost chairs fly? I thought you fools were about that life?

To those who say that the WTK are too loud, do you feel the same about the ASG, or Easter,  or the Xmas 8s? I def get some looks in the ASG 8s but hot orange and green are just as loud as the WTK or WTMVP colors. I feel that some poeple are all about the resale value of any "What the" shoe these days and it sucks for those, like myself, who are actual fans of the shoe.
 
Yeah I would just throw those chairs out. If you're gonna camp, then camp. Don't use a damn placeholder
 
you are addressing a demographic of preteens and teens.

real new yorkers dont care about no what the. _____ nikes
 
Lol not me, but I ain't camping there so it's not my problem. Cone Friday it will be a mess there, half them ppl with chairs won't get pairs, the employees don't gaf who goes in first
 
Crazy thing is usually at least a few of them cats are actually sitting in those chairs. Not one person is a little weird
 
Same **** at footaction. One dude and one chair, he said almost 20 here

I don't get putting a chair down and coming back in 2 days. If I was the store I'd raffle since no one is actually waiting in line but no system is perfect I guess. Personally I'm gonna try online with my fingers crossed.

To answer your question yes all three are loud but no they are not as loud as the what the series. Mismatched shoes takes it another step, but in regards to the ones you mentioned I more than likely would not wear asg or Xmas either. Just not a fan of bright colors because it just sticks out too much for my tastes. I might wear them to the gym where it doesn't really matter but as far as an everyday affair they would not find their way into my wardrobe
 
A roll call would solve that very easily but like I said the store employees themselves dgaf who the shoes go to. If people let the ghost chair camping ppl herb them then it's on them
 
If I was an employee that wasn't allowed to cop id be salty. First try to hook up friends second throw some chairs out every few hours.

Prob why I don't have a job in retail.
 
In the midsole I am pretty sure (no removable insert).  I've read phylon midsole which should mean its encased

Agreed too -- I've got a $20 coupon to burn and at $120 these are tempting.  Been looking for an outdoor Kobe too
feel you bruh. Been lookin for an outdoor kobe shoe for a minute. The other joants they have come out with here like the air max ham and another one are garbage and look like doodoo Forreal Forreal. Before knowing these venomenon 4's were releasing here in the us, I ordered a pair of dream season 5's off the bay a week ago. Got the laker colored ones. They look awesome to me for an outdoor shoe. I had the dream season 3's in the past which are the Asian takedown outdoor model of the kobe 5's and been using them for a long time and hold up real good and I've had the venomenon 3's which were not as good as the dream season 3's. Waiting on my dream season 5's to come from Taiwan. Will grab up the venomenon 4's when they hit stores here as well and see which ones perform, look, and feel better. But always liked the dream season line over the venomenon line. The dream season 5's look closer to the kobe 8 then the venomenon 4's as takedown outdoor models IMO.

No, shoe store employees are no different. Their family/friends will all magically get their raffle ticket picked. If they want em they'll get em. Its whatever, they still work at a shoe store.

I debated ordering some dream season 5s... Been hesitant because my true size is 11.5 and I don't think there are half sizes over 11 with Asia releases.  Curious to know how they perform!
