Kobe X Official Thread Elite Series ‘Elite Team’ April 18th, ‘Elevate’ May 15th, ‘Rose Gold’ June 5

Thanks man. Yeah, they don't look too good IMO. Nike is straight up gouging us. An additional $20 for graphics now? Was the Mamba Moments and Multi-Color options extra on the Kobe 9? Either way it's ridiculous.

Those were Flyknit ID options only, and yes, those went for an additonal $45 compared to the regular FK lows.

Went on NDC just too see if these could still be bought. They can.

Double post.

 

[jordandj24]

yes blackouts have gs sizes. There's a pic of it a few pages back

Thanks! Right after I posted that my cousin who works at kid's footlocker texted me saying they just got the shipment.

slightly disappointed I wasn't able to purchase at cheap prices on European sites. But 5% discover cashback on ndc and free 2day ain't shabby.

Even tho I won on raffle to buy in store, lower tax and $10 less is worth waiting for from ndc. Plus I don't havta drive to pickup.

Dang forgot about the Discover cash back and just used PayPal and ebates, oh well

Speaking of Discover cash back, I guess everyone capitalized on that 15% cash back over the holidays and now they've dropped it to 5%. They usually had 10% as sort of the standard.

I stopped using my Discover card when it was becoming a hassle to get credited for purchases from FTL.  Nike would go through just fine.  Now I just buy gift cards at a 10% discount through Citi.  It's basically the same as getting cashback, but it's up front.  Plus, it's like double dipping because ebates still gives you cashback.

Im sorry if this has been answered, but when  comparing the "5 am" cw and the "blackout" cw side by side, I noticed that there was an extra clear fuse thing on the blackout cw.... why is that? Is it a sample? Or fake?

Thanks for clearing this up!!!!

They both have it.  It's just not noticeable in that pic on the 5AM cw.

You think Nike is using fake images?

 

[chillen]

I deciding if I want them or not I'm not sure lol

 

[rigel19]

Fighting the urge to cop. The only thing stopping me is the fact that the extra fuse might start to peel.

Hope it says that way so those that want them to wear can cop.

 

[gil23]

If they weren't so expensive

lol

 

[dark steel]

If they weren't so expensive

Or so plain looking... except for that horrible tongue :x

 

[blacklion23]

I went to check them out, thinking I was going to make a impulse buy, but they were a bit underwhelming. Don't get me wrong, they're decent, and I still want a pair. Just didn't feel the need to get them. 5AMs are cleaner than ASGs after seeing them together in person.

This is what bothers me the most about picking them up.  I would have liked to use them for ball.

 

[bowb4me]

I can't bring myself to pull the trigger. I'm not gonna get something I have to force myself to like.....anymore that is. Ha ha ha

Pass on the ASG.
