NIKE Kobe VIII PROTRO - 2023

[ballyeaz]

really miss the old 8s

less clunkier, the tongues (yes I prefer the OG ones!), lighter, and awesome colorways!

The homie came through today!!! He was having lunch with his girl when CENTRE posted they had kobes for sale, he bought the shoes for me but he kept both kobe shirts

Anyone with OG 8's in sz 12 that know their weight?

I'm kinda low key disappointed in Protro 8's weight since the OG's were noticiably lighter than these, but it might be just me and my mind playing tricks on me..

These Protro 8's in sz 12 weigh like 400 grams where I remember that OG 8's were like 50 grams lighter.

My OG size 10 weighed 320 grams

Hopefully they release the amnesty’s

Celtic colored Kobes

 

[g-time]

That’s not Celtic green

Glad the Riddler has more input on kobe retros than his fans at this point....sigh.

 

[kilroythedon]

These ain’t it man.

 

[Magic33]

They're ok, but they look like a team sneaker

You can literally have them in every color, blue, red, black....

Very Team Bankish

 

[g-time]

While I want past colorways and PEs, if these means Kobe's are on the shelf, I'm ok with it.

At the rate this line is going, Vanessa may as well have never come to that new agreement with Nike. Gdamn, whoever is steering this ship with this type of “vision,” I wouldn’t trust them to steer my shopping cart through a grocery store.

 

[kilroythedon]

I’m sure we will see the floodgates open once it’s 2024….

 

[206to813]

I’m not sure I want the floodgates to open the way these colorways are looking

TAKE WHAT YOU GET - Nike.

 

[So Much Sole 23]

What’s Even The Inspo Behind These Integer 8’s?






**** Got Bad QUICK!

[bobj885]

well good news is if you like that Emerald design but you miss out, you can get some Halos and easily customize them into that

 

[Magic33]

They're ok

Just mad plain

Not the biggest fan of white with that material

Is that supposed to be a Hornets color?

 

[kilroythedon]

They not the worst thing ever…
