The way Nike are these days, don't be surprised if they stick the midsole and outsole on a mid-cut upper, and call it a new shoe.

People just gotta realize that it's NOT always about LOOKS but how it performs on the court. Or maybe you just don't play ball..
wth, now im a hypebeast because i dont like them? I totally dont understand why some people nowadays get butt hurt over someones opinion in some shoes. and ido ball...son.

I thought the ZK2 was pretty tight. My fav out of the ZK2 was the ST's by far. The orcas were one of the best cw's dropped in the kobe line. Ppl alsoslept on the brown cw of the ST's. They were clean in person.
For me the zk line goes like this:
1. ZK4 (CD's, Finals Away, MLK, Del Sol, Inline, Whiteout)
2. Zk2 (Orcas ST, Brown ST, USA Ultimate)
3. ZK3 (Mambas, China's, Ace, MVP, MPLS)
4. ZK1 (USA, black/maize, All-star, Mambas)

I'm older than probably alot of people on this board. But i prefer performance over style. But if your are able to get both why not. We have to remember alot of people wear ball kicks on and off the court. I did when I was living with mom,had no choice.A pair of kicks were multitasked to death.

If I like the overall fit of these, the ZKV is going to do some major damage to my funds. So many good colorways.

via. Junkshoot from ISS. [ http://ameblo.jp/junkshoot/entry-10398101510.html ] thought i'dshare it with you guys.
This post goes directly to them haters on the V.
Flexibility looks mad amazing.
And I don't know what these dots mean.. anyone know?
That's pretty much it. BOTTOM LINE is, the V may look like a running shoe but it is designed as a TOP OF THE LINE performance basketball shoe. As we allknow the ZKIV broke barriers and took the KOBE line into new heights with Flywire and Lunar Foam. Outsold the Lebron VI and most Jordan's in the market.With the Kobe Line getting more and more popular, expect the ZKV to do the same thing the ZKIV or maybe even better.
Don't front like you own the shoe or balled in them, cause prior to the ZKIV release, people madly shut down the IV cause of its "LOW CUT". Asthe KOBE IV sold out with almost each GR, Carpe Diem's, Del Dols, Inlines etc.. pretty much made its own statement. Now it's one of the top 10performing shoes EVER. Quote me on that, cause its true.
But now give way to the V. It'll be more fit on the toebox which lacks on the IV and also the zoom air will probably be as good if not better than thelunar foam. IMO Lunar > ZOOM.
K, i'm done with my rant.

Doubt it.
yeah, his sig is off centered. It's not the camera... idk why they did that. its mad ugly.
AND REMINDER.
Kobe will debut the ZKV on court on Christmas Day taking on Lebron and the Cavaliers. It may be the away version or the Chaos.. but it'll be sweet
Expected release will be the Chaos on Dec. 26th, 2009. (Not Confirmed). Will release at House of Hoops and select Footlockers.
MOD's, ya'll need to UPDATE the first page of this thread asap. MOD's PM me.

I like the IV a lot, but they made the shoe in so many colorways, that would almost seem inevitable.
