Nike Kobe A.D. NikeiD Thread - OUT: AD low IN: AD Mid ($180)

I'll wait lol. Would order if the Swoosh was iridescent too. Need confirmation the May 5th pair is the Time to Shine pair or not. Or it could be a tease and it's a different pair.

I hope it is the time to shine but u know how Nike is... they do have matching irredecent swooshed on the new ids... love the heel and the Rasta colors on the outsole lol. I'm s big time smoker so gotta have that outsole
 
Finally iridescent heal cup. Ihavent checked yet. Can you only get the cup with the gold foil ankle? I want an all black with the cup.

Gotta go with the all red or all black upper with the gold irredecent
 
The top pair is super unique too me! Nike will always have that glow outsole but not the multi color sole! Maybe order both and see how they look in person. Then choose one but I'm bias bc I ordered top pair lol
 
I meant iridescent like the midsole treatment.

Ended up going with a pair in case they get taken away. If they are still around when there are new stuff later I'll remake them with my 25% code.
How did you get a 25% code? I placed an order with my 15% code, couple hrs later saw the new iD options, wanted to order them and get 15% off but they didn't want to do it
 
Cant decide... Which one?
I was playing around with these too and the bone and faded outsoles just didn't look right on both this and the lebron iD

im down to these two options right now.. blackout or icy blue sole

All black looks great, although rainbow is good too.
 
The black upper is no longer showing for the Kobe A.D. Premium iD... wtf is this??! Based on past all star iD releases I doubt they will ever restock this either. Options even more limited now.

​They're just trying to generate some sort of hype for the line I think. I wish I would have gotten the BHM's when the option was open but I never did. People on ebay are asking ridiculous prices also.

They need to lower the price and expand the options so we can do more. Nike really shot themselves in the foot in the past few years by being greedy.

I whole heartily agree.
I agree as well, but they really don't care. They are a big powerhouse. They'll make money. Plus, had they lowered the prices, resellers would kill it again by purchasing so many and then reselling at higher costs. Nike knows this occurs and so they raise the cost, because they know there are true Kobe fans and Kobe heads who'll buy them regardless. Nike will lower the prices later for the Outlets, and other retail stores. They win either way because resellers aren't seeing much traffic of profit with this strategy because the consumer knows too.

My personal opinion, is the higher they are, the less people will have them and the less likely of the chance someone will pull up alongside you and have the same Kobe's as you. It's like showing up to a party/bar/club and someone has the same shirt as you. You're pissed and wanna go home and change lol I hate that ish. I hate when someone has the same Kobe's on as me as part of me likes and enjoys the exclusivity of paying higher costs to have the shoes others can't/wont spend the extra $$ on. Same reason the rich buy the high end top dollar cars lol

You can see KD's, Kyrie, Curry, Jordans, & now PG's because they're cheap which will make them a dime a dozen. Every little kid will have one of these cheap shoes due to the fact that parents for 1, don't want to spend $160+ on little Johnny who will just grow out of them, hull them out or both.

There is no 'sold out'. They make 'em in Vietnam, they deliberately cut the stock.
It was the same with the BHM then the unused uppers of that different material were used for the Compton/DeRozan release.
