Official Kobae XI thread

[iks mod]

If this is the same encase lunar forefoot and heel zoom as the X, I gotta say, I'm most likely good with no pairs.

and I know, I know, we all say these things, but for real

I'll cop the last game pair as a memento of his retirement.

Probably going to be a PE pair.

NO WAY that's the XI.

NO WAY.

A Chinese Spot posting their Fakes shouldn't faze you.

That's actually my favorite part about the Kobe X. I personally can't take zoom anymore. It's too unstable unless it's bottom loaded. Cushlon would be nice but it's heavy in comparison to lunar. If they gave us a lunar or zoom option again that would be even better.

Fixed.

...and those pics are usually of just ONE Sample & One Colorway.

people don't realize the Kobe IV weren't the first popular low top bball shoe. the TMac 1 had the same ankle cut which was mid-low cut, but due popularity general public thinks Kobe did it first.

Bro, steve Nash was ballin in the Jet flights in 2001. Kobe was still with 3 stripes.

The tmac 1 was a low? I dont think so. I owned the 2, which was more sleek vs the boxy 1. I think the cut was similar, i consider em mids

 

[ballyeaz]

kobe 4's were inspired by the bb nash's iirc

 

[super t1ght]

he talked about it on the GMA interview. said something about he would love to go out there with them to play, but just doesnt know if he will be able to.

i guess we'll have to wait and see.

I saw that too. Kobe is my guy but i was thinking, Olympics in Rio?? Kobe is already embarrassing himself out there, i dont think Team USA would want him on the squad. Might as well use the spot on a younger cat that can help like Klay

i think those are mentality 2

the greatest thing about the kobe line was the break thru in making them low. no lie, a couple of the models were failures, but the whole militart x shin guard thing taxed the kobe line way too much. the ids started to just take away from the shoe.

What do u mean about the shin guard?

They just need to put the old Nike air forefoot bag inside of the lunarlon. Zoom air causes tendonitis.

You know what, I'm starting to come around on those XI's...something about them says '2004' to me

what?? the fakes come first because the chinese fake makers see what the real model looks like and try to replicate it. the early fakes are typically very close to the real model. remember when those fake grinch kobe 8 pics came out? those were very close to the actual kobe 8 and we saw those before the unveiling of the kobe 8 by nike

if these are how the 11s look I am feeling them. they have a real indoor soccer shoe style to me and I'm ok with it. will have to see them in hand and on foot forsure to make a final decision

that laker pair (that's most likely a fake) is growing on me.

i see potential in this shoe and i wish others did too, unfortunately most will write it off since it has no flyknit (yet)

 

[Mr Dink]

The way I see it, they're not as nice as 4-10 but with the price of other shoes out right now, I'll definitely be picking up a couple pairs for $160.
