Kobe X Official Thread Elite Series ‘Elite Team’ April 18th, ‘Elevate’ May 15th, ‘Rose Gold’ June 5

[luong1209]

Can't wait for my pair to come in Monday. For 130 shipped + a $10 tip, steal.





New hoop shoes .

How?

Friend's friend has a swoosh account. He's not making good money working retail, so you know you gotta tip the man. Grabbed a pair for my buddy too.


Hopefully he'll be my connect in the future .

How many colorways they said were coming out again

Only know of these so far. Silks are 21st not 28th* I made a typo.

I'm hearing 10 cw's

Got the ASGs from Kickzstore's sale... and now I think I'm hooked. Saw the Blue Lagoon's (or whatever nickname Nike gave the all blue ones) in person the other day and they looked MUCH better than I thought they would.

This does not bode well for my bank account.

 

[jocruz89]

Blackouts are the best out of the 5 that I have seen. Word is, a Bruce Lee is on the way.

 

[timelessflight]

Does the footlocker bday coupon work for these shoes?

 

[tigo0240]

Looks like they're finally starting to drop the price on those digital print Elite socks.


$24 for two socks is still crazy but it's better than $30...

 

[jretro23]

What kind of socks are you wearing?

I only wear elite socks (more comfortable) and it felt broken in after 1 day. I've played 2 games and pickup for 2 hours already in them. I have 0 pain on my feet after playing whereas other kobes I would be sore for the rest of the day

i wore nba socks. i'll try elite socks next time

Is it just me or does it look like his shoe is like 2 sizes too big for him?

 

[flossb15]

Did you experience any cracking or peeling of the materials on the shoe? I copped today, just trying to get a feel if the issue is every pair or few and far between?

No cracking or peeling on mine

Wow sharp eyes. Just noticed that.

He was probably hoping to join the rest of the injured Lakers on the sidelines so as to help them tank

In most cases, they usually are playing in .5 size up.
Players are always taped up and most double sock, they'll fill out the extra foot room with that stuff on.

Also, traction on these are pretty crazy, the shoe probably stuck to the floor while his body momentum flew forward .

Does anyone Know why you can find Vinos/blackouts on the bay for $10-20 under retail? Seems odd to me, but the sellers are legit

The newer made NBA socks don't feel as plush to my feet as those in past years...

Give these a try. I think they're the ones that quite a few of the NBA players wear now...

Just as an update on All-Stars, ive balled in mine for about two weeks and there are NO signs of peelings or even cracking.

i might be lucky but im glad they held up.

I will say this, the sole is so soft, the heel is showing major drags and shaves as in how air force ones lose their stars at the toe. the little patterns has just sanded off at the heel
