I’m glad they’re actually doing SOMETHING, but I don’t know if a zoom strobel on its own is better than the original set up.

the traction always seemed suspect to me on the OG pair
willing to try a pair of these on court to test the upgrades

Zoom strobel is a nice balance for comfort and performance, IMO.

The insides of a KD 14 on a Kobe 3, I’m in. What’re the colorways for the highs coming out?

I hope these tank like the TB 8s so I can scoop for cheap. Would go to court instantly with these.

Had this exact color on release day on 1/2008. I love this colorway so much! I hope this color comes out. Will definitely purchase in a heartbeat(resale or retail)I’m hyped. Pulled out the OGs.

Bought these from a guy in Seattle when I was stationed in the area in 2010. Would def pull the trigger on em again.

A normal board is either cardboard like substance or some other cheap material. A zoom version can only make things better imo

IMO, not if they are removing the original Zoom set up for only a strobel.

When retros first kicked off they led with original cws tied to accomplishments. Now we get limited ran trash none of the core fandom asked for.
MVP, Chinas, Allstars...

I'm not entirely familiar with the 3's but were there any solid PE's he wore that would be sought after today?

I don’t always love Zoom strobel.. some sneaker reviewers swear by it but depending on the shoe sometimes it feels too bouncy and leaves a real unnatural feeling under foot.

There were two home colorways he wore in the playoffs, one with a purple toe, and the other with a purple sole. I think every other pair he wore released on some level.

They're saying the Halo's are $210. Where did $240 come from?

Never been a fan of the upper on the 3s but I’m intrigued by the lows.
Really want them to revisit Kobe 2s though & the 3 protro gives me some hope

Edit:
The only pairs I ever saw at retail were the all black and maybe white. Always wished I could’ve bought pairs with the colored toe caps. Totally changes the appeal of the shoe’s visuals for the better in my opinion.
