I don’t live there anymore but man, Michigan barely used to get Kobes. No one had the Chaos back in ‘09. I remember being so bummed. Had to get all my pairs from eBay, other than my NDC pair and a pair a friend who lived in LA bought me locally at the time. Used to infuriate me.
Well for this release a few random far away got em, closest one that I even frequent I saw this morning was Somerset. I live near lakeside mall which didn’t get these
You're good with your TTS. There's still a little bit of space (width of your pinky nail) in front of my toes (was wearing thinner running socks) and I'm a true 11.5 on the Brannock Device. When I said cramped, I meant a little narrow since the toe box kind of comes to a slight point. I think most people who copped a half size up did it because of the toe box being narrow, not because of length.
Somerset was my local mall. But before they redid the Footlocker a few years back and put in the HoH, it hardly ever got **** LOL
You've got it wrong. The text about the heel zoom doesn't say that at all. It states there is heel zoom, go back and read it slowly. You're assuming Nike wanted to show all of the tech in the shoe, which they did not. You're also assuming they want to cover their asses for the FLZ Kobe 4 fiasco and you're giving them too much credit. They don't care that they were wrong in the past. The guys writing the marketing materials probably don't even know about the FLZ fiasco. We're sneaker heads, they're just people who work for a shoe company because they're good at what they do, not because they like sneakers (although they absolutely can be sneaker heads). They were only showing the new or upgraded tech. Why didn't they show or say anything about the flywire? The heel cup? The outrigger? The carbon fiber shank plate?
Yeah I believe SNKRS had them in 13.5.
Pretty sure they removed the heel zoom, inserted a bigger Forefoot zoom bag
Trust me, I don't want to give them any...
Being right about this is not at all important to me, but I respectfully disagree. And there is no way I'm giving them too much credit
Why would they say (reading it slowly) "Softer foam in the midsole helps deliver more energy return & similar responsiveness to the zoom air unit in the heel." What they are saying there is that the softer foam they used gives you a similar feel to zoom air in the heel. If there was zoom air in the heel, they wouldn't need to call out that the foam gives you more energy return & similar responsiveness to heel zoom! I'm telling you... in an annoying Nike-like way, this tech spec is telling you that it's just better foam in the heel giving you a similar feel. Please tell me someone else interprets it this way too...
The Grove doesn't have them. Used the app and got an email saying the reservation has been cancelled

saw the chaos at AZ Mills and they look a lot narrower to me. I think I’m gonna wait but I’m not at all interested in paying 180 for shoes that will be mad uncomfortable. May just focus on the IVs instead.
