Nike Zoom Kobe V PROTRO - Dec 2019

[rainking]

Mentioned this in the Jordan V white/fire red thread ...
I bought a fourth pair of Protro Chaos from SX yesterday. Hate paying resell prices and especially in the circumstances. Maybe I'm wrong but I don't see prices coming down to a point that it really makes a huge difference, so I just sad eff it.I should have just bought that last pair on release day for retail, and I didn't. It's my favorite Kobe--I went through three pairs of the OG release.
In the end, it stings, but these ain't coming back around again for a LONG time, unless Nike reloads ... which seems doubtful.
Some of you guys know, I have multiples of a handful of certain shoes I love. But I only have four pairs of two shoes: Concords and now Chaos Vs. I guess these are my two favorite shoes of all time. As it should be.

I had a hand in this.

I‘m glad you got me to buy my one pair. We are even.

Yeah I don't see the Chaos dropping much. Also want a pair but it wouldn't make sense for me to pay resale since I want to hoop in them.

Remember when you were only maybe gonna buy one pair? Wait, I thought you ended up with two?
Regardless, it IS your fault. You were talking sense at the time and I listened for once. Cost me an extra $200 now. Way to go, dickhead

I infer you didn't get a pair on release day? If that's the case I agree. If they aren't your jam in a bigger way and you only want to play in them, makes no sense.

I also want a pair for hooping. I'm not too invested in any single colorways, so I will patiently wait until we get some GRs that are easily attainable near retail...

This is where I stand right now.

 

[vinotwofour]

if I paid retail, I have no problem hooping in them even if they have a high value. But if I have to pay resale, kind of hesitant to F them up in hoops lol

I really just want some Kobe's to hoop in.

Waited too long when the Protro 1s sat around and hit outlets. Now the prices are way up there to justify paying.

 

[vinotwofour]

I have the og models of most of the kobe line so I still hoop in those. But a fresh protro (espeically 5's) is what I wanna try right now.

Man, I KNOW. Super regret it!

 

[crz777]

I’m gonna end up paying resale for sz 12 pretty soon! Very upset but nothing to do other than b*tch and moan! And I will defy hoop
In them. I’m not into wasting money by “collecting”

 

[D_eezus]

Man, I KNOW. Super regret it!

don’t be yourself up NO ONE see any of this coming.

 

[ladfallo]

Are the Lakers CW confirmed to release or just rumored?

 

[tigo0240]

They were copped early at a Footlocker somewhere.

They're sitting around for sure.

 

[ruzzi]

The Lakers colorway are def coming. Looks to be a GR as the footlockers I know they are at are suburban ones that don't normally get QS.

 

[ladfallo]

Definitely gonna be on the lookout. Thanks folks!

I hope this is an old picture. If this is recent the glue in the 5s wasn’t that good and all my OG Vs Separated from the midsole a couple of years ago
If you do decide to wear them take a back up pair

 

[urn0tlike]

Those look like they held up pretty well. Del sols seem to be one of the worst aging pairs. A lot of parts yellow.

 

[arabianite3]

Those were the days bros. Most colors were at all the outlets for 70-90 bucks. Then I began scooping pairs at Rugged Warehouse for $40 each. Inks, inlines, del sol, all black. Less than $175 funded my hoop shoes for like 5 years after. Now that won’t get me one GR Protro.

Paul milsap is wearing them too

I think I will repaint the outsole either in purple or yellow, in case they will be released.
