I thought the V's were pretty damn close to perfect and couldn't imagine how they could improve the performance of the shoe without compromising the quality or life of the shoe....

Looking forward to playing in a pair soon......

Life's short ....find humor in yourself and others....

My stance hasnt changed the more I play in them. The traction is the only problem I have with these. I'm sure people are tired of hearing my opinion of them and I'm hoping someone else who has them early can chime in with a court review. My only thought is maybe since I got an early release, these have the Asia XDR sole which has better traction for outdoor ball but indoor traction suffers? I dont know? Anyone know how to tell for sure and is the XDR sole in fact not good for indoor ball?
I'm not

Your cover pretty much every aspect of the shoes, you should start a ZKVI Review thread 

QFT!
My game is one that requires a hell of a lot of running around.....not so much "slashing" though....more like "trudging along"....
but I figure if the traction is a lil suspect, then I'll have to bring a broom with me to the gym...haha.
thanks for the recap and reup Mugz....
 
House of Hoops Tukwila doesn't know if they're getting Grinches in.


What's the point of having a HOH there?


Sweet skeets!!


.
 
^^^^^^^^

The hoh in beverly hills and lakewood dont know eihter.

what i did hear is that they should know by friday. 
 
Yeah its Fab- You Be Killen Em

I think I'll be wearing sweat pants and jeans with these to hide the swoosh a little. I think it's bigger than normal. Would've been better with an outline.

how come there is no info on the grinch colorway yet? i have mine from marquee but i need to double up on these for sure!! shouldnt we have some type of info or is it yet too soon?
 
I really feel the Kobe VI has the same exact problem of the Lebron VII, WHACK, boring colorways.  And I say this as an unabashed Kobe-honk, who owns 4 pairs of the Kobe Vs.
The Del Sols?

They are plain, black shoes with just hints of yellow.

Grinch's?



Better, because of the LOUD green on them, but still pretty much one color.

Look, I know Nike decided on going simple in the colors dept. because of the wild nature of the snakeskin.  However, I feel they sacrificed too much, and I'm holding out until some more inspired colorways emerge.  (Which they will.)

ps- Just as a reference, Look at all the different colors in the last two Kobe launch shoes.  The Carpe Diem IVs and Chaos Vs.

i feel you man on the del sols i do think this years is kinda plain from last, and the v's werent as good as the iv's but as far as future releases on this model i do feel we are in for some crazy stuff. nike knows what they are doing, just by looking at the shoe i think they can do a number of things such as having the scales a diff. color as the base, the return of gradiant style coloring, i would love to see some sort of fading out cw of this shoe. im sure there are plenty more of other crazy sh*t im not even thinking of but all in all this shoe will definitely be another classic just like the v's where. i know ima try to make the grinches my first pair of the vi's and definitely not the last!
