NDC photos...

I guess I'm in the minority, but I really like these!

If there are no more Kobe IX Elites coming out, I would love to scoop these up.

I don't think they will sell out quick. If they sit for a bit, I will probably wait to purchase until after the Jordan Sport Blue VI come out. Hopefully I can use a coupon or get a discount by then.

Those ext kobe 9s could be something like the Kobe 8 YOTS EXTS... I can see nike producing a pretty decent shoe!

WHOA dudes...just had a thought! Was looking at the original Kobe 9 Elite High image...

There's been some debate about whether that was the Masterpiece in development or a scratched colorway. It had icy soles, multi-colored graffiti or painted looking mural tongue and sides, that weird white circle around the ankle, and not to mention that flyknit is still considerably different than the Masterpieces multi if you really examine it  (hints or dark green, red and orange).

WHAT IF: That original image is the Sequoia colorway coming later? That green in the flyknit could totally be Sequoia, comparing it side by side it basically IS it, and there could be even more green than we could immediately see in those early pictures. What if the base is closer to green than black? Not to mention, I could totally see that painted tongue and sides being a tribal theme that ties into the color name.

Just saying, could be it!

Sincerely,

- The guy who totally called the flyknit low drop on ID

Yep sorry I didn't before. This is the one from the thread, just used it out of ease for the link, but there is a bigger picture available on the net to really study.

a collection of 1 is better than none.

I have a local shoe show thing coming up the day after the Beethoven release. maybe I will find the MPs at that for a better price.

Mind PM'ing me info about that?

I'm moving out to Austin full-time next weekend.

So are you committing to this being your prediction? Just remember though even a broken clock is right twice a day.

 

[s dubl]

Probably just an early sample of the MPs. IMO too close to MPs to have those release as well....

the hate is strong in you son.

For those with Elite Highs and Lows, do the shoes for the same? My elite highs are perfect to hoop in and I can actually wear a size lower because of the roomy toe box. Hoping the lows fit the same.

Lows fit slightly more snug, but the same lengthwise for me.  Balled in my Moonwalkers the other day, and didn't really notice a difference.  I wear an 11.5 in both and prefer the highs for hoops personally.  If you want a decent comparison, I'd advise trying on a pair of the EMs at a local retail store.

Hope this info helps.

I found the elite lows to be snug. I think the em lows are more snug than high tops but have about the same length.
