Glad I picked up my white/black pair at ROSS for $39.99 about 2 years ago.  They had a whole bunch of colorways.

Glad I could help. I love my pair.
 
These shoes are sick! Gonna cop me three pairs within the month if my funds come correct:
Black/White (FNL)
Purple/Yellow (Adidas)
Blue/Gold (FNL)

Can't wait!

I just prefer the purple/yellow "three stripes" on the heel over the solid yellow one.
 
^ I also prefer the Patent on the black lines from the 05's as opposed to the 2011's. But the OG Black/White colorway is on point.

Picked up the purple colorway yesterday at footaction. They let me use the Footlocker $25 off coupon. Figured they'd ask me for my ID to check if it was my birthday, but it was so it didn't matter. Girl working didn't even ask though, showed her the coupon and everything was straight.

Adidas did a great job with these. Lowerest the retail price as compared to the 05's, released a number of good colorways, quality is on point, and they gave us a better box. The 05's had that super thin crappy black box.

Can anyone verify the actual weight difference. Anyone got a scale? Lol...It's not that serious, but just interesting to say the least.
 
i noticed it cuz i play basketball and i hooped in the older ones and they were heavy as hell.....when i first picked up the 2011 ones i noticed the difference right away
 
 
Got reminded of this old Adidas commercial. Don't think this was for the KB8s, but still one of my favorite Kobe commercials

Not to assume you didn't know this, but you are lacing behind the fabric strap at the top? The one that runs around the heel? If not, you have to do that for a better fit. If you are, I will shut up and leave you alone.
