Official Nike KD VIII (8) Thread - "Easy Euro" OCTOBER 17th!!

I hope I like theses with the Kobe 10 looking like garbage and lebron just looking uninspiring I need a Sig I can like for the season
 
ohhh i remember when KD said after the 4s that pricing will not exceed $100-$120 for his shoes because kids who can't afford blah blah blah more blah x3 more blah's
 
KD like Kobe has a take down model that's cheaper. If you already are a struggling family and need a cheaper sneaker then having the main signature model shouldn't matter right?
 
u dont have to buy them all buy what u want buy the kyries for a cheaper priced shoe
 
180 is an absolute joke. I guess they have to raise prices to pay for the megadeal that he just signed
 
i dont get the point of getting mad over the price increase if you dont like the shoe then dont get em. if u like a shoe youll pay what u need to pay to buy it if not then dont. not hating just stating facts
 
I'm not mad at the price increase, it's just laughable. The technology used in the eight cannot justify that kind of price increase, I haven't purchased the sneaker since the fourth edition. Wasn't the first model only priced at $88?

if I'm not mistaken they retailed for $90
 
If we get a KD 8 Color description that says Multi im in.

Flyknit x Multi-colored = :smokin :smokin
 
For a shoe I may wear casually I'm cool with the $180, but as a shoe a lot of people will want to hoop in that isn't a good price. As the prices go up, the shoes are hooped in less and less . I used to see a bunch of young guys wearing lebrons , but they eventually could not comfortably afford to buy them to play in, so they moved to Kobes and the same thing happened ( to a lesser extent ). Kds are more popular than lebrons or kobes on my courts right now, but hyeprdunks, under armor, and other team shoes are taking over. Price increases are inevitable, and the shoe may justify the cost ( unlikely ), but it is interesting seeing the notable shift in performance footwear in certain demographics.
