The Official Kobe X iD thread

I wasn't around for the IX Id., so i got questions.


1) How long is the Flyknit optionthese likely to be ID?
2) If and when the Multicolor is released, is that likely to result in them removing some of the current options?

Thanks

1. The Kobe 9 Flyknit iD stayed up until the release of the X, or maybe a few days after. I would guess these will stay up until the XI rekeases in February... but who knows with Nike.

2. When the MC released on the 9, it was just another upper option, I.e. asymmetrical. No options were taken down, but there were certain options Nike wouldn't let you use with it, like GITD soles.

Man I was designing away  and didn't even think to look at sizes I hate when companies do this  ish. Between sneaker companies only dropping certain models up to certain sizes like 13 or 14 and sneaker retailers only having certain sizes in stock the bigger feet demographic is constantly ******. Had this same damn problem last week with new balance and the 998's only available up to 13

What size are you bud? I'm around a 13.5-14 so I have some problems with most shoes anyways. A couple of my teammates are 15+ though so...

1) Probably will stay up on NDC til the XIs just like the 9s stayed til the Xs were released.

2) Unless one is sold so much and hyped to the point where everyone is tweeting nike when is it going to be available again (like the fk 9s), I don't think anything will be removed. The only reason the MCs were taken off and made QS again later was because of the traffic caused by so many people wanting only that specific colorway when the fk 9s were put up. Pretty much every other color was just shoved to the side, so I guess they figured they needed to sell other colorways as well. 
 
Everyone calm down. They're just sold out for the day. They only sell a certain amount per day so they can keep up with production and shipping it out on certain days. This happened to a couple of IDs in the past.

YESSIR! Nike marketing team tryin build hype like none other. same **** went on when they released the Roshe Flyknit ID MC, sold out in the first day and then they brought it back couple weeks later and it's still available. smart move on their part, but they're definitely bringing this option back for later.

Thanks folks. Repped.
 
Flyknit ID's are a cash cow. There is no way that they wont bring it back up. I would imagine that they just got a huge amount of orders and are trying to get caught up. The only thing I could see maybe happening is the asymmetrical pairs selling out but that's about it.
 
I hadn't considered the GITD blue sole for the HTM look, and I know some other people were wondering how it looked, I found a Mamba Moment pair on eBay made with the sole, to give people an idea of how it may turn out.

Still looking for a pair, had one in my size on kickzcrew but price and shipping were to high. I should check the bay, but to have both IX and X will be epic.

I've been lurking everywhere, had them in my cart and wanted to sleep.  Wrong night to sleep.  Pairs have been popping up in ebay, but price to high for color combo not feeling.
 
What do people envision doing with the rest of the shoe options if/when MC shows up? Seemed like the popular thing to do with the 9 was basically to emulate a low Masterpiece, but since we don't have a MP 10, just curious to hear what people will have in mind.
