OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

Played in the red camos tonight ... i give it a 7/10.

Traction was good. Cushion/support was good. But it was killing my big toe hitting the top of the shoe and my pinky toe rubbing. Wasnt enough for me to take them off but def feeling it now. I have them in a 12 which when worn casually is a perfect fit but for hoopin i def need the 12.5. Still a good experience overall but since all my kobes are 12s i wont be playin in them no more.

Back to the hyperdunks for now

I'm most likely done with the 8s now, unless those SS' look a lot better in person. 

Full shozoku for all, except the BHMs, can someone educate me if there is even such a thing?
My Top 5:
1. BHMs

2. Purp Fades

3. Xmas

4. Sparks 

5. Sulfers

Yup. Overseas BHM pairs have the full logo.

The only Real Problem I've had with the Kobe 8's is the Life of the Heel Cushioning.

It bottoms out before everything else and can make the rest of the Sneaker feel Uneven. BUT... it didn't happen with my "SuperNaturals" b/c of the Zoom Bag embedded Underneath the Heel.

Hopefully a Zoom Bag is Underneath the Heel on the 9's... Lunarlon is Cool, but the Lunarlon + Zoom Combo makes the Cushioning More Durable over time.

And honestly I don't see why what they put in Elites & Nike Plus can't & shouldn't be the standard for a $140+ sneaker. It's NOT too much to ask.
