Official Kobae XI thread

[SNEAKEATER_619]

ASGs just copped on the bay. Dark horse and Barca’s are winking at me.

Looks like my stimulus is going towards catching up on 11s

 

[SNEAKEATER_619]

Did any of the GR drops come with a full length zoom unit or was that Nike iD only? Why did Barca’s cost $20 more retail?

Think the full length zoom was a Nike ID only option. I'm not aware of any GRs that had it. Wish I Nike ID a pair though sigh...

Some of the IDs didn’t come out well on the 11, the flyknit is stiff and more plastic than knit.
These are some of my better pairs.

the last one is the Brazil pair, also underrated like the GCR.

Good to see activity in this thread! Probably my favorite sneaker.

Went crazy on em. Ended up with Achilles, BL, Parkers, Black Space, Oreo, Black Horse, ASG, Alt (with the shroud), Masters of Innovation, and 2 IDs with full Zoom insoles; 1 with XDR.

I remember staying up all night refreshing my Chrome on the kb24 website trying to add the FTBs to the cart at retail.

Crazy to see what they're valued at.

Half my 11s are stashed somewhere deep in my storage unit but I wish I could take a glamour shot of all of them together.

FTBs are STUPID expensive.

So many blatant knock offs floating around too

They're all stupid expensive if you're a size 12 or above. I've seen so many 11s , 11.5s for cheap.

 

[laced navajo]

Are y’all finding DS pairs? I’ve been looking and can only find used pairs for decent prices.
Size 11.5 btw

 

[skaterplayer808]

I'm just hoping the FTB11 gets the protro treatment one day in the future. I understand it's probably one of the most coveted shoes in the Kobe line, but Nike should really give fans a chance at owning it as a protro one day.

Eh, I’ve been seeing DS pairs on eBay but they ain’t cheap. Still a better deal than Stock X for most sizes.

Newest additions to the family. Beauties.

I love my ASGs. Such a dope colorway.

 

[Wesley Pipes]

Its crazy because except for a few select models, I was able to cop most of the kobe 11s for around 100 and the ones that made it to outlets for about 75

Why you posting fakes. Da f going on in here?

 

[johnmcguirk]

What makes you think those are fake?

Yeah the look like ID’s to me.

The thing about Kobe’s shoe’s which I respected, was that the people who bought Kobe’s took them right to the court to play basketball in them.

Many didn’t view them as “Fashionable” before...

Now many want his want his shoes when they weren’t interested back then so that makes it even harder to cop.

Big **** YOU to Nike for making Kobes so limited.

I agree

You must were not into Kobes when the 11 was around.
These are the ids. It’s all good as these aren’t as common as the other ID colors.

I’ve been very active in Kobe threads since the 4, nice try tho

neither of these were nikeid options from what I remember. We never got stitched swoosh for the model either.

not only that. Shape/fly knit looks way off and the outsole is off.

this was the “white” upper for the model. Your upper wasn’t an option and its a terrible fake of the “Oreo” colourway

the black pair is a horrible fake that was all over Instagram fake account pages. It wasn’t a retail shoe or nikeid. Nike never gave us this option, in fact, their upper options were pretty crap. They were the grey upper knit dyed in the colour of your choice.

The 4 ? That’s a long time homie!
No disrespect, but these were Nike ID option as were the yellow/orange ID pair.
I can’t help your ignorance if you don’t want to look it up your self. I’m not trying to get your approval.
Just trying to share some nice looking Kobe shoes to help revive this 11 thread as it was my favorite.

cheers and let’s celebrate Kobe tomorrow.
RIP Mamba

Stitched Swoosh? Are you talking about the white pair shown last? That's the Kobe 11 Brazil.
