Official Kobae XI thread

4-6 goat Kobe shoes.

this right here bro.

I do like the 11's tho. Everyone at my gym has the Achilles and I'm the only one with Bruce Lee's. My **** is dirty af tho

I dont follow. Are u saying they dont have midsoles?
They have midsoles
8 and 9 have a drop in midsole

I think he's saying visually they don't have a midsole. It's just the outsole and then the upper

 

[timelessflight]

so after the Red Horses, we'll get the Black Horse, then the Silver/Ash Horse?

So..

White = Victory
Red = War
Black = Balance
Silver = Death

I wonder if they all follow the same pattern of different flyknit colors but same white stitched swoosh, tongue, heel tab, etc.

 

[8blackmamba24]

Yea I noticed the red horse and white horse gots 3 or 4+ colors in the upper.

ground beef part 2

this. 

Question: does Nike manufacturer the same amount for each colorway. It's weird to me that some dope cw's sit forever on NDC, while others are gone in a flash. BHMs were available in FSR on NDC and were heavily discounted but 4kb and others sold out quick

Thanks

units vary per cw. Its as simple as the consumer just doesnt like a certain color vs another; then you will have price and other models competing on the same day.

blk, blue, green cws are planned; no silver.

I hope not but looking like they will.

Wow, how quick people forget something we discussed in the X thread about the minor revolution design changes to the kobe line once it went low instead of all out model changes like the lebron and kd line, its ok I'll let it go all lows not named 6 or X are gross, im still holding out hope for an xi ext

Never thought about this but Im thinking the XII will be something new. 

Then Nike will retro the old models and keep people hooked like Jordan Retros

The only thing really holding me back is pull tab on the tongue. Im trying really hard not to cop because im going after the flu games but i may end up with these. 

Tongue is my favorite part besides the Colorway lol I wish the other models tongue was as big

Agree to disagree. These shoes would've been an instant cop for me if the tongue was a normal sized one. The giant tongue doesn't mesh well with it being a low top shoe in my opinion.

I like the way the ASG look on feet like that with shorts and high black socks with the sort of pulled down effect, just like how I wear my socks

Holy crap the tongue is huge! You can use those as riot shields!!!

 

[SNEAKEATER_619]

Hmmmmm I'm gonna play the waiting game on those Parkers. Maybe, just MAYBE they'll hit outlets as well.

 

[aron710]

One can only hope that one of the 4 horse colors will be Lakers themed

 

[abuch47]

those white horse are 2legit2quit

redhorse are nice.

5 rings over Achilles by a bit (have both) prefer the 11 model too.

The Parkers are at my local FTL in south aussie, didn't get the avars or tinkers except in the city. $180USD = $250AUD retail is calling out to me

Weather is warm now. Just wondering what type of shorts everyone wears with 11s casually?

Seems to happen in a lot of the more recent lines.

Kobe 9- Early highs had more toe room but later versions didnt

Kobe 10- Same as above. Rose Golds have more room in them then my WTK. WTK actually ran really tight for me

Kobe 11- Larger fit: Achilles, Eulogy, ASG (from what I hear), Emperors (from what I hear). Better fit: BHM, Bruce Lee, Tinker

I've got the Achilles and All Star in a 10.5 and they fit perfectly.  Bought the Eulogy's in a 10.5 on Monday and didn't even think to try them on. They're huge. I've gotta go get a 10. Hope I can try each one on before I cop.

Would it be too much to ask you to physically measure each shoe? I'm really curious...seems like a lot of people say colorways fit different

It *could* be that the sizing is adjusted/fixed between colorway waves, but idk
