That's wild.... if there are leftovers of those. I can understand the BLs cuz they released at FL but the ALTS and 5x were only SNkrs releases right. So they just held back some of those pairs?!

Hmmm. Oh it was the Vs you were referring to on the Vs page.... that's why you posted there... but it was also confusing cuz they moved on passed the Vs.

I would be super down for a pair of BL Alternates and if the illusive EYBL's are somehow available that would perfect. Wishful thinking for now, I'll believe it when I see it

Would prefer 6s.
But I’d be happy with some 5s.
Just make them attainable please!

But I can now see why they'll do 5s if they have left overs. Possibly approach next year to continue and finish out the 6s with all the rumored pairs we saw way back when for the Protro 6s and "increasing" production.. maybe kids sizes. They know folks would like something so just they'll just put out something for this month. But we shall see

If they just release leftover 5s and barely have any product that would be so frustrating

With the way these releases have been going, it seems like they are all left over product.

The DS pairs in some reseller’s closet are probably kept in better condition than some leftover batch collecting dust in a warehouse

I'll gladly take a pair of the BLs to use for hooping or Eybls

If they're just leftover product, people really shouldn't be getting their hopes up. It'll be barely enough to even graze the surface of demand. I got all those listed, but wouldn't mind hitting for retail, seeing as how I paid resell for almost all my kobes. Man, I should've pulled the trigger on chaos alts when they were 550. Same with the PJs for 350. I waited and now prices are OD. I got a ton of trade bait, but refuse to pay anywhere near the going rate for those at the moment.

I've been collecting/wearing Kobes since the move to Nike. From the 8s thru the 11s, I purchased almost every 'Elite' release. During those 'peak' collecting years, the only hole in my collection was the three 9 HTMs (I was fortunate enough to cop all 4 of the 10 HTMs). On top of all the Elite releases, I also purchased a substantial amount of the EMs too. I also purchased many IDs.
After Kobe retired, I began to sell off a lot of my collection because many pairs were approaching the 7-8 year mark. Based on my experience, many Nikes begin to suffer from material breakdown around that time. Even then, I would take the proceeds from my selling and parlay that $ into new releases.
I spent a crazy amount of money on Kobes and I have ZERO regrets. I got A TON of enjoyment all these years collecting/wearing Kobes...just like I got A TON of enjoyment following Kobe from the start (I live in Philly, and Kobe was a huge deal here in Philly back when he was playing at Lower Merion). The only times my heart was broken regarding Kobe was when the Sixers took AI instead of drafting Kobe, and of course, the horrible Sunday a couple years ago.
It's gone from all that interest, enjoyment, passion, and money 'all things Kobe' posted in the above paragraphs to...
now spending about $500 a year (if that) via StockX.
Way to go Nike!!!!!

That’s what’s going to happen. Prepare yourself to be frustrated. They’re going to release 5 pairs per size and SNKR_Twtr will retweet some ****boy who never owned a Kobe in his life and only wants to flip.

Those posts are usually fake lol
I was thinking about that. Seems like a lot of effort though to fake that for a little bit of clout on social media

There’s no way in hell those made it to Ross. Nike released like 5 pairs and they sold out immediately.

Haven't been in this thread or heard of any Kobe's coming out after the Mamacita release, did somebody said there'll be pairs of Vs? What about the Del Sol 6?
