OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

[chronicsneaker]

That's why I stock recent releases. I don't want to rock my new sneakers at the same time as the entire world.  Sneaker planning.  Imagine bringing the purps out 2 years from now. Straight FIYAH! but even the Toro 4's, I can't go anywhere without seeing 2-3 of them joints a day on strangers.  When I rocked my Xmas lights, I saw another dude with them on and I was like "Nice sneaks bruh!" pointed down to the shoes.

wore mine today 

Still the best colorway, if these were limited people would name them the Kobe 8 grails. As a bonus, Kobe actually played in these too.

Graffitis on nikeID now. Went from instant cop, to probably not copping them.

I guess the sneaker blog sites are all late with it too because they're posted today. Was on vacation and didn't see anyone recently post it. My ******g bad.

 

[chiacrack]

Crazy as it sounds I almost consider purple fades grail status, at least for the Kobe line anyway. One of the more underrated shoes this year imo

^^^Because urwhack....

Naw, hold it at different angles diff lighting. It's there.

lol u liked my sn?

 

Yea I see it but not as much...I guess the mesh sew is too lightly to see it!

 

[urwhack]

missed out on those purple gradients still trying to cop

same here

 I was thinking bout coppin the purple gradients but my 6's gradients will make up for it

 

[Black Lotus]

i dont think the kobe 8s are under rated at all as most of the CWs are sold out

Feeling the same. I kind of felt the same when the digi upper of the Xmas KD Vs became a option.

 

[chiacrack]

that's true they do sell out, but I don't think the shoe gets enough recongition

im fine with that... why want more hype? when theres a greater chance for people who actually want the shoe because they like it or are a kobe fan to cop rather then have hypebeast drooling all over them.

I agree, no need for more hype, I just believe the 8 is one of the better shoes out while other shoes receive more hype or accolades. What is really nice about the shoe is that it remains stylish but still has the performance edge to it. Sometimes it can be difficult for a shoe to achieve both.

If you liked them before why don't you like them now?

 

[chiacrack]

^ I can't answer for him, but I did like the lime green looking one coming out, but the more I see the pattern the less I like it. I think the colors caught my eye more than anything

 

[Black Lotus]

1. MCs

2. XMas 

3. Fades

4. Black Elites

5. ASGs

honorable mention: Easters

 

[chiacrack]

I guess I'm in the minority. I love the graffiti pattern. I'll be copping and probably doing an I. D. as well.

 

[chiacrack]

^ idk it just looks cluttered and weird to me, I guess I would need to see them in person firstedit: its ok to like or dislike things everyone does or doesn't, example I didn't like toro 4s or bhm Kobe 8s and I am cool with that

 

[wrestlerj125]

lol stop. I was stating an opinion on how when something gets added on iD it takes away from the original version IMO. If you could make MC's or BHM in any color combo, would the originals be as unique... no.

I do still like the pattern.

 

[blacklion23]

If you liked them before why don't you like them now?

This may not make sense, but for me it kills the original concept.

Thank you. I had no idea how opinions worked.
