OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

[blacklion23]

There's some discoloration on the front of the sole(toebox area) on my Blue Corals. It's small but little stuff like that bothers me. But at the same time I don't feel it's really worth trying to exchange them, but a piece of me wants to, lol. Just wondering if it will cause any issues, mainly faster yellowing.

Would you try to exchange these?

Copped with the quickness!

Yes.

I would.

It that blue coloration on the surface of the sole or something behind the semi-transparent sole?

Someone else posted a pic of the Blue Corals, and they also had that same "stain"...also on the right shoe as well.

Anyone else have this problem as well?...

 

[blacklion23]

It looks to be on the surface. Honestly its really hard to tell. Here's another pic.

If I could get another pair I would definitely bring them back

 

[bigj505]

blacklion23 - id exchange while there are still pairs around. it would be an eyesore for you and haunt you once other pairs are gone if you don't swap.

 

[dark steel]

^^ That would be a definite return.

Looks like the midsole/toebox is showing through the transparent outsole, ala the KDIV iDs a couple years ago.

Hopefully we get some Team Based Colorways.

I did that back with the Vs and VIs lol. Only have a few pairs of Js left.

Can't blame you, I've never found Js to be very comfortable either so that doesn't help matters much lol

I've been considering this too lately. Still a few Kobe IVs, Vs, VIs, and VIIs I want. Some Brons and KDs I'd like as well. I just don't know which Jordan's to let go. I was thinking of just keeping all my black/red (OG)colorways and a few others. The ones I want to keep I'd get the most money for, though.

Thanks for the replies!!

Same thing happened to me. Ended up selling 16's, 5's, 23's and a couple pairs of Brons. I'm finding myself rocking the kobe 8's more then any other shoe right now because the style goes with everything and they are so damn comfortable. Might have to unload some more Jays in the coming weeks.

When are we going to see pics for the 7/27 release? I'm going away that weekend so I gotta start putting a game plan together if I am going to cop.

Was on the fence with these but once I saw them in person it was a no brainer..the crimson really pops. Very nice looking shoe

I am hoping a solid black upper, with white and red accenting.

 

[r23j]

if the White is the first all white Kobe since the IVs...
