I love the 8s and 6s. The 8s bottom out so fast tho.

I really like the 10 over the 9. At least with the zoom. Running up and down the court in the 10s don't feel any issues with my knees compared to the 9. 9s traction tho was dope!

For me... Huarache 2K4's. The Original Kobe 1, before the Colorado situation put things to a hault...

yea, i like the 10 over the 9 as well in terms of performance. the only time my knee was sore playing in the 9 was the first time wear them. afterwards they were okay.

When you say the 10, are you referring to the premium or the regular version?

the elite. didn't like how stiff the regular version is.

I see, thanks for your input. I was planning to purchase a pair for playing ball. I heard some people sized up on the elite lows. Would you recommend sizing up by .5 or staying TTS if I plan on using it strictly for playing ball?

TTS. They are a little snug, but breaks in nicely. I have wide mid foot and these are fine.
Honestly I don't see a difference between playing ball or using casually. I always buy TTS unless the shoes are really narrow like the runners.

Could the XI be Kobe's retirement shoe?

That's the Consensus, but it's highly possible that they just keep the Line going, the same way Jordan's have.
People love their Kobe's, and Nike knows that WELL, even with Kobe not even being on-court most of the last 2 seasons.

I'm sure it will be Kobe's last shoe he wears ON COURT. I think Nike continues the Kobe line due to the popularity of the shoes and the amount of guys in the NBA who use his shoe.

If I'm Nike I'm continuing the line but only putting out one version. No need for elites, elite highs, etc

Of the ones I've played in, I am a fan of the V, VI, 8, 9 and X, but the Vs just play so smooth to me... If you gave me that same midsole setup, with an updated upper with something like the Kobe 9 traction, I would be in heaven

Honestly I think the 9 ems played the best. They were more flexible and lighter than the 4&5, better traction than he 6, and more supportive than the 8. The X are too stiff and bulky. I only play in low tops so that disqualifies 1 through hyper dunk. And don't get me started about the 7s
