Unless they're gonna have F-L Zoom, I don't really give a s*** about the date

I wont lie though, the away finals colorway on 6/14 would be nice for the 10th anniversary.

Imo the 6's were the most Kobe shoes ever and fit him the best because of the snake scales which completely matched his black mamba persona. Even the box was nice af. No other shoe has really embodied his personality like the 6 plus it was one of the lightest shoes ever. I really wish they won that year so we could have seen Finals colorways and a 6 rings colorway.

Yeah that Snakeskin look was a nice touch.

Also helps the 6 that one of the best Kobe colorways is the Grinch 6s

 

[Declan]

you tried all others but skipped the V's???

SMH

Skipped the 2,3,5,7 and 10. Only brought up the 5s bc they seem to be by far the most popular among that group. The 11s are my favorites after 4s just wish traction were a bit better.

Are the consensus to half size up or go TTS? I remember I had both 9.5 and size 10 for these back in the day. I dont remember which ones fit well. I will be using these to ball most likely.

Always went TTS on 4s, 5s and 6s and fit me great. 8s as well too. 7s were trash but I feel those were TTS as well.

Nike gave some PE Kobe 6 in the same white/gold as the 5’s to some players in those playoffs after the lakers got eliminated. I’d have to dig to find it but on mobile right now. Maybe someone else can look

6s maybe the best looking kobes

fit tts for me but then again I used them strictly to ball in.

I admit they do feel a bit roomy in the toe box though

My personal not so far fetched theory:

The Wizenard IV is this year's Mamba Day release.

I thinj so as well...hope this holds out to be the case.

Seems likely to me. Although I would be happy if they kept up the black and gold theme they have going with the 11's then 1's

 

[Declan]

Honestly don't see what you guys are seeing with the wizenards. They're hideous.

Was so excited about the protro 4s and so far ending up with no flz and ugly draft days and wizentards, ugh.

 

[ballyeaz]

I think Nike is just done with Kobe’s. Hell theyre celebrating mamba day by reviving old Kobe colorways but using them on Kyrie’s and PG’s lmao.

 

[si3n4]

Such a weird rollout for the 4s. I doubt Nike is fixing the cushioning, but we can all hope while we wait for more colors and releasing information...

 

[ruzzi]

Had a dream I met Kobe in person and the first thing I did was go into a monologue about how Nike f-ed up the protro iv with no forefoot zoom. Lol.

[the red model]

I'm about to customize with my forefoot zoom lol.

 

[the red model]

I played in them today. The forefoot cushion actually feels softer than the OGs. The upper is still stiff like the OGs though. I'd still prefer forefoot zoom. I think they would feel lower to the ground with zoom. These are good to go if you can get them under retail.

[Declan]

Dope. It ain't rocket science nike just keep it minimalistic with the 4s.

And add flz u lying cheap sweathouse using bastards lol

 

[KHUFU]

I am guessing that pretty soon you guys will get outlet reports concerning these, those that were not released.

 

[urn0tlike]

Crazy how Nike ****** this one up. Protro is a great idea, was perfectly executed with the 1 and they follow up like this smh.

I agree, very very soft forefoot cushion. very weird considering the originals felt nothing like these.
