THE OFFICIAL KOBE 9 THREAD ****** WHAT THE KOBE RELEASED ******** BHM RELEASE 1/19

[aceboogie86]

Those yellow laces look okay. Kind of cool. They match the lining but not the fk.

they will match the fk from a distance because they will look yellow

 

[thapointguy]

still wish the inspirations had a grey sole, for some color contrast. too much black imo.    probably why I like the precisions so much...

Or white, I would've copped them and gave up the search on MPs. Hopefully Precisions release.

 

[sneakerfree]

No.

The arguing about it being a Lakers cw or Suns cw is silly. They'd probably work with either jersey even though they look pretty dead on with lakers gold, imo.

Love how you totally omitted the 2nd part of that sentence just to try and prove a point. Twisting peoples quotes to just so you can have an "e-win."

"Work with either jersey" doesn't mean they're a dead on match (like I stated the showtimes appeared to be with laker gold), but that it wouldn't look totally outrageous for a suns player to wear them.

The Inspires are straight B-ball for me so the black sole is a god send

yea I think im ahold off on inspirations til we find out if precisions are dropping cuz I would still would rather have those over inspirations

Not trying to twist anything. You clearly said that they look better with the Lakers gear. It's posted, I was just saying no, they don't look good with either jersey.

Signed up for a raffle for easters, because I'll be busy Friday morning. Should be an easy win.

 

[Van Nostrand]

I've never known anything about the Phoenix Suns being associated with "Showtime" ... Clearly paying homage to Magic and LA

I'm a little hesitant with white flyknit but those inlines... 

Only other Elite high I'm interested in at this time

 

[geoff2005]

its funny. I think inspirations color blocking is perfect. the shoes itself are already loud.

Im a person thats all for bright and flashy colors like mambacrucial and xmas lights. also like the fact it looks almost like a batman boot haha.

the lace swap is okay. I thnik they are fine with black laces. I think maybe black laces with hits of yellow in them might be a good blend

 

[blackdelage]

Decisions decisions. Just got my showtimes from End. But someone is sellin me crimson 9 lows for $500.
Should i sell em both for this limited pair? View media item 921031View media item 921032

$6 well spent on some purple laces. Too bad Nike didn't throw them in from the beginning.

 

[Deleted member 107398]

You guys are crazy, THIS is the perfect match for the Showtimes.

That's up to you man. Me personally I wouldn't. The showtimes are straight heat.

 

[mastralf]

I think most people are used to the brighter yellows Nike has been using on the recent years Kobes.

From pics, showtimes are closer to the canyon gold/maize nike used to use. They also added some orange to show some contrast. I've yet to see showtimes in person, but that's what I imagine I'll feel once I do.

Your pretty much spot on my man. I thought I would take a few quick pics to demonstrate.

Hmmm based on price I'd be skeptical - Post some pics in this thread and maybe some of the veterans can help you out.

this deal seems like it could be legit for both pair... have yet to see any fakes... post a legit check if you want confirmation

Man.. First time ive seen these shoes in person. As in any 9's. I'm far from a sneakerhead.. but these shoes are ridiculously goodlooking. Photos really do the Details no justice.

The guy who sent them, seemed legit and was very responsive. He also sent his Nike receipt, with full address etc on it. Hopefully these are legit. I'm digging em. The Perspectives arrive tomorrow.

These are for summer hoops.. and i almost feel bad hooping in them.

IMO they look better w/ the original laces...that purple just ain't doin it for some odd reason

 

[lewi1913]

Dont do it.

 

[la kb24]

I still need purple laces

 

[poohdini816]

The suns vs. laker colorway argument shouldn't even exist. They're called the "Showtimes" for a reason, it's a lakers colorway. But if u wanna rock em with a celtics jersey, nobody is stoppin u.

Hold up...Did I just read that correctly, "Laker cw kicks w/ a Celtics jersey"??? Unless it's tacky day @ that person's workplace, he or she is more than welcomed to, LOL
