Official Kobae XI thread

[big4man]

Pretty disappointing to be Kobe's last shoe (while playing) to say the least

Ready for this thread to thin out to just the fans of the shoe ha

 

[twanzilla]

I dig them.

The heel padding part on the fakes are thin compared to authentics

 

[Blue Mamba]

All I know is they look better than the X's

the way they did the flyknit is awful i dont like the contrast the worst flyknit kobe smh

Best Kobe since the V's.

I'm not feeling the heel cup so white on the black/white pair is a no-go. Hopefully a true black out releases rather than make one on iD.

 

[deekaleci]

these remind of the 9 which were pretty uncomfy on my feet, wish they made a midsole on these instead of just putting a giant outsole

 

[bestintheworld]

Discounted pairs will be purchased

 

[therefill]

Bruh, these don't even look like basketball shoes. Why Nike got Kobe wearing these wrestling shoes on the court?

We'll see some of you back here if some multicolor joints drop. Talking about "I was waiting on the right colorway!"

3 years in a row with stitches on the heel. Come on Avar

The look pretty good to me. I'm definitely in for the Achilles Heel pair. More streamlined/sleek than the previous 2 iterations. Similar to the 8 but without the external heel cup.

 

[deekaleci]

was never a fan of the full lunarlon midsole like what they did on the 9

No elite high version this year according to Kustoo

Nooooooo

PS up there looks good, would love a black pair with white sole.

Yes please.

I have a feeling that the colorway dropping 1/27 will probably be closest we get to a black based colorway.

Would love to be wrong.

Aren't these, by example of prior models, the "elites" already since they have flyknit?

No high say it aint so.
