THE OFFICIAL KOBE 9 THREAD ****** WHAT THE KOBE RELEASED ******** BHM RELEASE 1/19

Good choice on picking the greys over the BL's AgentZero.

 

thats a really good idea to superglue as it does seem to slide around a bit. I think I got a size large and there was still alot of room. It doesn't mold completely around but definitely indents to almost flush after probably 10-20 wears

 

it's going to be a while but I can't wait til these get retroed


Derozan wearing the BHMs last night

 

Derozans been rocking the 9s lately

 

Probably due to his ankle sprain, I would assume

 

but those Elite 9s gives as much ankle protection as the lows


plus I think he was wearing the 9s even before he sprained his ankle

 

Doesn't look like he is lacing them up all the way either.

 

Oh I know, but not everyone does. Could even be a mental thing for him. It's funny, I actually sprained my ankle a week ago landing on someone's foot and everyone I played with blamed my 9 lows and told me that's why they wear high tops.   

 

He wore these on a couple of games before he sprained his ankle so not sure if it's even a mental thing unless dude is psychic

And I think he was wearing the 7 FTBs when he sprained his ankle?

 

Picked these up about 2 weeks ago...now wishing I didn't pass on the 9 model :\

 

Can someone legit check these for me? Thanks in advance.

^Looks legit to me.

 

Do the elites lows run tts?

 

The GR ones do 

IDs run 1/2 size small

 

Mine do.
On another note, I haven't rocked any Highs in months. That's gotta change..🤔

Pears still out there; just fork out the extra dough. 😂 Never thought I'd witness Sequoias reselling for 3 bills +.

 

No way over 300??? I could have gotten those for like 85

 

I think the general consensus has been elite highs > EMs > elite lows, going from fitting slightly roomy to slightly snug. I went TTS on the elite lows, but I do think they fit a bit more snug than the other two models. I know a few people went a half size up on the elite lows and half size down on the elite highs if you search for earlier posts in this thread.

 

got ya, Just got a pair of elite lows in they do fit snug but if I remember correct they will break in over time.

 

I have a pair of ID lows - they do not break in. I really wish they would.

 

Copped a pair of Details (8/10 condition) for 35 euros. Thinking about chopping them but not many people in Europe can do that I think. One person is willing to do it for about 160 euros, is that a fair price? He's very talented and makes a lot of bespoke AM's, so I know he'll do a quality job.

 

I'm on the fence about a 72" lace and an 84" for the high tops. I know they come with a 72" but I want the option to go to the last eyelet without strangling my feet

Really random but anyone with deadstock Kobe 9 insoles willing to trade for deadstock Kobe 11 full zoom insoles? Size 9.5, their way to narrow for my widish feet I have 2 pairs

 

if you were 11.5 I would have helped ya out. I have a few DS 9 insoles and looking for full Zoom insoles for my 11s

 

daaang lol the full zoom insoles are so narrow ite crazy my foot hangs off

 

My year end for discover came and got a credit and I'm looking to pick up a nice pair of kicks.

I was dead set on getting a Kobe 9 high top but now I have a chance at some DS mamba moments (kobe pair). Can't decide what to do lol
