You still in your feelings. You defending GCR's and the only thing they appeal to you is that you have an "exclusive" pair which you even admitted. That hype got to you and you think you got the best thing out. And don't act like the GCR's wasn't your poor man FTB's. I remember you posting GCR was your replacement for striking out on the FTB which would make sense why you're butthurt. I also recall you're a size 8.5

I'm frugal though...I won't stupidly jump out the window and pay a stack for em, $500 maybe $550 the most I'd do so I'm in talks with a few trying to make it happen. So gimme you're FTB for $500 and I'll forgive u.

Thanks. I appreciate that. I think I will leave it cool grey
because the flywire is cool grey. The grey flywire will look out of place if the swoosh outline and shozoku are both gold. It would've been nice if they released your PS version tho.

Not hard to do the Flywire. Get a gold paint pen and dab the Flywire and it will soak up the paint.

I just created a poor man's GCR on Nike ID. I'll continue to wait and if they don't release then I might pull the trigger.

Nothing poor about that price tag for IDs. 

Unless they improve the black FK pigment, then you will be disappointed in the outcome. 
 
Hey guys, I'm going to Germany next month and will stop by Nike Lab in Milan. Has anyone been? Do they carry a regular stock of Kobes there?
 
Bringing this back to sneakers.   Just picked these up at a second store near me that put them out.  Had my size this time.  In the 11 'White' category, I like these more than the Horses.  Just cleaner to me, and not as much white-overkill as the horses are.  The quality on my pair was on point, and the back lines up close to perfect.  Will probably vary from pair to pair.  The material on the Swoosh is different from most GRs.  Kinda give it a little bit more of a premium feel.  It's the same material as the GCRs.  It feels like a textured fabric.  

Hoping a lot of people don't get excited about these.  Would like to pick up another pair on discount since I know just looking at these will get them dirty.  Overall, I need to knock an 11 out of my top 5 now, because these make it in.  Sorry for no glamor shots, but I didn't feel like doing a photo shoot.

Damn these are fire, I thought u were gonna wait to see if they sit and go on sale?
Think they will hit NDC or just SNKRS?
 
Can anyone kindly PS the USA's to have either an all blue or all red heel? I like its cleanliness but can't stand the misalignment of the stitch line in the heel.

Damn I thought pretty much all the lines wouldn't be aligned. This one the straightest I've seen.
Can you do an on foot with pants photo later?
 
One of the things I hate about ordering from these Euro sites, orders getting cancelled. Here's hoping Kickz doesn't cancel mine. :smh:
 
I actually found a site that ships to the US, comes out to about $234 shipped. PM me if you want the deets

Yes it fits but the Lebron insole sits higher so it will be much snugger on the top of your foot then with the Kobe insoles.

Thanks for the info. I'm still on the fence tho since its use those insoles or just go the ID route an pay the extra for the full length zoom

These USAs...damm. I wish my pair had perfect lining up of the heel stitching like this. Did you choose from a few pairs to pick out the best looking one. I may go back to the Foot Locker I got them from and choose the perfect pair.

The Kobe full zoom insole sits higher too. I have the Lebron insole and it has settled down since brand new. It fits in the Kobes no problem. .
 
im wondering if there is anything u can put on the USA's to keep the dirty off of them like some sort of shoe protector?
