OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

1000



Lady Luck came back from the far east with a pair for me & a pair for baby bro. She chose to eat at Cheesecake Factory for her reward. That place has waaaay too many options btw. Went with the orange chicken in honor of the Fireworks.

Nice pickup my dude! The tongue, laces, and cushion just makes me think if only nike released an OC cw of these

I hear that man.  Nike needs to give a certain NT member unfettered access to the sneaker lab.  Free BIG NOG!

There's getting to  be too many color ways... bring it back in Nike bring it back in 
 
LOL. This is why Nike hasn't released a Lakers CW yet. People call the Yin Yang (which was a Lakers CW) lackluster but are begging for Lakers CWs on the 8s?

You've answered your own question......

8>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>7

-_______- zzzz......I'm sleep doe.

Wake me up when all the groupies leave once the 9 releases. That way we can get back to more constructive posts.


:{ Are some of y'all seriously comparing PDFs and Ying Yangs on the VIIs to Homes/Inlines/Amnesties? The PDFs & Ying Yangs were both horribly executed/color-blocked, period. The issue wasn't even the colors. The PDF upper design was just flat out garbage in any color, and how many dudes are seriously gonna want to wear completely mismatching shoes, in any colors?

It's not about the "8s are better than 7s" statement as much as it is about the fact that Nike is hesitating to release any Lakers colorways due to the public's previous reactions about Lakers themed shoes. I'm not just referring to the Yin Yangs. We can go all the way back to the Away Vs, which actually ended up hitting outlets. How about the Imperial Purple VIs? Those sat pretty long too. Same thing happened to the VII Homes, which I remember someone saying that they copped at a FTL for $39.99. Last but not least, the university gold VIIs. They sat forever online until the price dropped to $109.99.

Also, was that last sentence directed at me? Because I certainly don't know what a "groupie" is and how your post is any more constructive than mine. ("Zzzz I'm sleep doe?" What was that all about?) All I'm trying to say is, people have to view this situation from Nike's perspective and understand why they're only keeping these Lakers colorways PEs.

Yeah the mismatched upper on the VII was terrible but gotta give it to them for pushing the envelop along with the WTK. Let's hope they keep it out the 8, knowing the love of the 8, if Nike did that again they would get a pass and they would be the greatest colorway to date. :{
 
That Fusion CW and OC CW are fire, those are worth paying a decent penny for.
 
For those who have been rocking their Blitz blues on the regular, how are your soles looking? i kind of want to unDS mine but i dont want to regret it if the soles look like booty later
