Official Kobae XI thread

[flipfromhi]

At my FL right now, manager said they're definitely limited and not GR. Don't sleep if u really want them.

I was told 18 total pairs when I went a few hours ago.

 
Barnes & Noble...I called them ahead to make sure they have some in stock before making the trip.

Barnes & Noble around my way had both the SLAM magazine and SI Kobe Special Retirement Issue

Pardon the deviation, I know this is out of left field, just wanted to share these because I think they're awesome, but obviously there's nowhere applicable. I suppose since Tinker said him and Kobe both like sharks, I can throw this pic up real quick, just got these delivered, I'm a huge fan of the movie and shoes so obviously it was something I had to pick up.

Was a pretty easy cop for me out here in Canada, went online at 10:15-10:20 and they still had some sold out.. Some boutiques have sizes online tho..

Prob my last Kobe 11 to be honest

They should have made a pair using the mayors awful anchor jacket.

for sure, those would have been copped as well. I actually liked those women's ones with the yellow barrel laces too but didn't want to mess around with women's shoes

 

[newportbeach]

Wish the mamba days were as easy to cop as the Tinkers. Struck out multiple times on those.

 

[dnjumpman23]

Soo glad I copped. Shouldn't have slept on NDC. Only my local FTL had them and 1 per size.

 

[ton3rl]

I know these are supposed to be like the BC3 but damn, the laces are cheap

 

[the kobe show]

For those that did lace swaps, what length are the laces? 54"?

 

[jyasmith]

Yes laces do look cheap, may swap them out.

Also wanted to mention that I was comparing an EM model to a FK model in hand at Footlocker and the collar padding thickness is night n day. Makes me not wanna even mess with the EM cuz I ball in mine.

I just took off the laces and measured them, they're 54"

 

[guylbc]

Beautiful shoe.

[sleepyking]

My local foot locker had a few per size but there was a short line and they allowed only 1 per customer

Thank you!

 

[jyasmith]

What's the site most of u guys get the better laces from? Can't remember.

 

[redraider806]

I feel bad for those that were gonna wait to see if they'd sit and go on sale.

 

[toodope91]

Called Nike SF. They said that if I wanted a pair I better get there in the next half hour

 

[the kobe show]

Called everywhere around me in So Cal. My size 11 sold out. So much for people saying it's a general release..

 

[aron710]

Wow, I've never expected the hype to be this real. I guess people still remember Kobe's 60 point retirement game along that these are a Tinker collab and Jordan's theme.

Glad I got mine on SNKRS.
