I just don't get the print design on these to make them Easters. If they had them bunnies like KD or some kind of other easter theme then it be better. This was how the 8's started out. Slow but then you start regretting not picking up some of these earlier CW when they were easily available.

Bunnies being attacked by a black mamba or something.

I like them, but wouldn't wear them.  I love the Kobe's but I am not a fan of the path Nike's taking with all the graphic and colorful uppers.  It sells though so they'll producing it.

They kinda remind me of the Prelude 8 where the toebox is. The design but not color.

Ya it's a similar tie dye effect that the prelude's had.  Wasn't a fan of the Prelude 8's, only ones I really liked were 1-3 but like I said I don't care for all the crazy colorways and flashy colors.  
 
Not as turrible as I initially thought, but still a pass on those Easter lows.

Glad to be getting a break after going in on these Elites.

It took a lot of Patience but I finally got my hands on a pair of masterpieces. I will now join all the others in saying that this is the best color way. Mostly because of the variations in the flyknit from pair to pair.
 
I personally haven't seen any fakes but wouldn't be surprised if there are some out there.  They should stick out like a sore thumb though, the flyknit on the Kobe IX Elite can be very intricate and requires expensive equipment to weave.  Any fakes the flyknit would be way off I'd expect.  But like I said I haven't seen any just taking a guess here.


I'm almost completely sure that there aren't any fakes of this shoe out there. I can see the EM lows being easier to make replicas of though.

Thanks for your input guys! I'm feeling much better now
