Kobe X Official Thread Elite Series ‘Elite Team’ April 18th, ‘Elevate’ May 15th, ‘Rose Gold’ June 5

i hope my ASG come in tomorrow. tracking finally got updated.

if they perform well, then i'll buy more X's, if not, i'll be on ebay finding more 9's
 
My get flamed, but I think the Kobe's are worth $160.

Really no reason to increase the price from the 9s.

But I said the same thing about the 9s when they released.

We've seen a $20 increase over the past 3 models each year, respectively.
 
 
If you HAVE played in UA, you are the only person I have ever heard that said you don't like them for hooping. If you have not played in them, then you don't have much of a valid argument for them being wack. But if you just hate the look of them, that is another issue and not related to performance.

Not trying to be a d**k though or beef, lots of choices for everyone out there that plays. No hate.

No hate at all man I have 0 experience in them hooping, I'll admit it straight up. Me calling them wack (harsh words I know) was simply from an aesthetics standpoint. 

Oh and KD Vs were hideous
 
I think the clutchfit drive is a great looking shoe but the under armour logo is very distracting and looks bad on basketball shoes.

Took me awhile to come around on UA looks too.

I agree. I think they're purposely making the logo stand out like that so that no one confuses them for another brand. 
 
Wore my asg kobe x's tonight at the gym. They feel great and they look real slick.. gonna def pick up some more pairs even tho the price is not nice..
 
Put a Swoosh and Shozoku logo on the UA Curry One and call them the Kobe 2K4 retro and ya'll hating on them would change your tune :smh: Don't knock it til you try it.
 
The only people who think UA are wack, are people who don't hoop and just want nike aesthetics. We collect basketball shoes. Play basketball.
Preach.  Im def going to stray from nike and get some low cluchfit drives or low stephs when they come out.  Once the 10 proved to NOT be a step up performance wise (I do like the shoe casually/or for lifting tho) - and a step down to 9s imo - then I figure there's no point to throw down 200 for it when from what I've read the UA clutch fit / steph perform just as well or better for much cheaper.  Sorry Nike ur price point has finally pushed passed the worth of the kobe for me......that being said if an amazing color way comes out Ill prob still pick it up haa

I don't see that as ignorant. If Curry was with nike and they released the same exact shoe but with a swoosh, watch the beasts come out of the woodwork...

Interesting point.

Clutchfit drive lows are out now on ua.com and footlocker.
 
Played in the Kobe 10's for about 3 and a half hours today. Its a great comfortable shoe. I at first felt reluctant to make sharp cuts in them because they don't feel as low to the ground but after a while I never even noticed it. The zoom in the heel makes it super comfortable when landing after a dunk or blocked shot. Overall im pretty impressed with these.
