THE OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE FOOTWEAR THREAD: RIP LEGEND 1978-2020. MAMBA FOREVER | 3 Releases 4/13

[vinotwofour]

I wish they would go ahead and send my cheap tee. I ordered it 3 weeks ago! I do like the way the hoodie looks though.

I also ordered the poly shirt too which is nike dri fit but they haven't shipped yet. The regular tees and long sleeves are the ones that basically cheap blank nike tees that they screenprinted the Mamba Academy logo on. If they weren't donating all the proceeds to the mamba foundation, I would've returned it

Came today. Put that boy on faster than any piece of clothing ever

damn I miss my boy

I like the way it looks, but can't really tell the quality of it. Is it good and logos are stitched or is it screen printed and stitched?

I feel like after a few washes this hoodie will go to ****. Hate to say it. More on the cheap side imo. Compared to 2018 team hoodie (at bottom) it feel like a knock off.

Have the same hoodie. Have to agree with that assessment unfortunately.

Thank you guys for the assessments! Glad you just saved me some $ lol

Might have to buy a better quality hoodie and make my own with a Cricut. Already trying my hand at recreating some designs on Nike drifit for personal use.

You can’t even read Legendary on his arm.
Did Kobe whisper it to him?

Hope Booker gets a refund...damn that's awful

Looks like my handwriting at the end of a long day. One or two noticeable letters and the rest scribbles

considering that the swoosh and the patches are embroidered, I would disagree. embroidered is ALWAYS better than screen print. Maybe previous years had a higher quality embroidering/stitching, but i wouldn't go as far to call it bad quality.

 

[vinotwofour]

the idea is cool, but what was the point of having the stencil and the picture of the toebox and the shoes physically there if they're not even going to replicate it onto the tattoo lol

Sizing wise, how does the Mamba one compare to the Lakers one? About the same? I saw that the materials are a little different so I'm hesitant to order. Heard you cant return or exchange any of this merch. I've tried on the Lakers one before in a M and it fit perfect.

Sizing seems about the same.

He might've well just got the tattoo in Times New Roman if he wasn't gonna replicate it.

That tattoo artist is JonBoy. https://www.instagram.com/jonboytattoo/ The writing is a hybrid of his distinctive and sought after style and a more readable font than usual. Dope execution if you ask me.

 

[sho3tym]

Love the concept and idea of the tat. DBook is one of my favorites in the league...

So his kobe tattoo is all about clout


"Yo JonBoy, lemme get this John Hancock tattoo."

"Say no more, fam."

I have it and can say I love the colors used. Only thing I hate about the model in general is the back pulltab. I wear low cut socks and it scratches up the back of my leg. I used to wear high socks when playing ball, but since one side ripped, I ended up cutting em off. Best decision ever.

Like..at all. Waste of a tat tbh. How hard to completely copy the msg? Weak
