top 3 ugliest Kobes for me are 3, 4 and 8 ...I would never buy any of those unless it was complete the entire Prelude Pack.

But the prelude 3s are

 

[Black Lotus]

only ugly kobes are the 3 cuz of that waffle mesh... the exception is the prelude 3s cuz its not as visible

 

[im faded]

Since everyone else has IMO in no particular order

Ugliest
1. 3 - not a fan of the waffle look
2. 6 - silhouette is nice but didn't like the snake skin feel
3. 7 - needs no explanation

Best
1. 4 - establishes low top look and signature cw like del sol and carpe diem and got me into Kobes
2. 5 - if it ain't broke don't fix it and some of the best best cw such as jokers, dark Knights, Bruce lee, etc
3. 8 - really simple and comfortable and the mesh made some great colors xmas lights, sulfer, purple fade, bhm, mc, etc

Other models

1 - my first Kobe, kinda bulky but still nice. Wish I didnt wear my OG to do some backyard work lol
2 - not a fan of the strap
9 - I was really looking forward to it until I realized I'm not a fan of high tops anymore. Lows were better to me especially the flyknit but nothing mind blowing
10 - same as 9s but 9s looked better to me

 

[timelessflight]

V's are the best.

VII's are the ugliest

I warned you. Now we have to meet in Temecula.

 

[the collector]

Best 8

Worst 3

 

[thapointguy]

3s were decent at least some of the colorway. They are comfortable too but I guess they wouldn't be given a time of they since people go by aesthetics first.

Lmao that's pretty good! I remember reading about that but forgot the details to it

 

[Larry Legend]

I liked the 3s a lot because they were different than all his other Nikes, obviously different doesn't automatically translate into visually pleasing but for me that spider-web look and a few cw's were awesome..
The 2 in comparison was generic looking and uninspiring IMO, then as some dude said up there the 6 and 7 are self explanatory lol

Yes, they look really good in person.

[bdrake823]

I'm trying to resist too been spending to much money on my self during this giving season ha

 

[iks mod]

+ another 1 for trying to resist -- always tempting to be able to have early for retail, especially w/ the new model anticipation

Same here. This would be shoe #7

Couldn't resist...ordered them and saved on the tax. I'm done until the Cement 4s.

I thought kixsquare wasn't legit or that folks had some issues with them

I know there have been some hiccups with them , but the one time I ordered from them, everything went smoothly

 

[tinthewinner]

Idk guys, when I checked earlier, they sold out and now they restocked? I don't think these will be gems like everyone thinks

 

[big b 33]

Now that I've seen The Force Awakens this is the next thing I can't wait for. 

 

[dafilman]

Imma wait till later tonight and if they still have my size I am going to take that as a sign....

 

[goat4521]

What issues were people having before I pull the trigger on these

what issues were people having with them ?

 

[iks mod]

what issues were people having with them ?

Think it had to do with receiving the wrong colorway of something and lack of communication.  Heard another situation where someone didn't receive something for a long time and communication issues there as well.  Can't remember the exact cases but those I think are the only two I remember.
