These prints don't work great on a flat surface material like leather. The Kobe 8/9 had some color ways with loud patterns but those worked well with the textured engineered mesh or flyknit material.They’re not bad. Just loud.
Kind of like these.
least surprising statement lol I know you a big lebron fanColorways been ok to me so far except the first colorway.
Those were just too boring for me.

I just want a material that makes sense for performance. just seems like they using some weird solid-plastic type upper to print random designs on it. The knit of the XX's looked much higher quality IMO

But color paneling and overlays give a totally different look and feelkobe 5s were a full plastic/synthetic upper, almost one piece besides the tongue/heelcup
that doesn't seem meaningfully different from the abalone pair or that shiny orange one

i didn't like the kobe 5 as much as the 4/6 due to that plasticy upper. tore at the flex point on my pairs.
I'm talking purely from a performance perspective, it's superficially the same setup as a shoe that people still rave about the performance of todayBut color paneling and overlays give a totally different look and feel
Even this tonal upper has distinctions with eyelet panel, toebox, toe cap etc. Like that more than the perforations on the 21 upper.
Those were plasticy also.
Hoping for normal colorways of the 21 like thisBut color paneling and overlays give a totally different look and feel

no because Kobe's were pioneering and a first of their kind.The plastic from old Kobe's are cool because they resell for a bunch of money now.
Cmon man you know this.
I grew up hooping in fuse upper shoes so as long as they're not completely unbendable I can work with it.
A Baby Blue Velour colorway could save these
