OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

[spoonmanofthehour]

if those platinums keep the yellow accents its a definite cop, no yellow or mines ill pass

The colorblocking is perfect with the yellow accents. If they come out, I really hope they have the yellow accents. Nike finally got something right.

Traded away my supernaturals for sulfurs, now I'm in search of ASGs, would cloaks for ASGs be a fair deal?

Good deal for sulfurs.. Easily top 3 IMO. I think cloaks look better but comfort goes to the ASGs even with the zoom insole. I would trade my ASGs for cloaks

pretty fair deal. You'd think that the value really would be cloaks

Thanks for the help, I love my cloaks but the asgs been catching my eye lately

pretty fair deal. You'd think that the value really would be cloaks

 

[kobeoverbron]

also, comfort > rocks on feet

so yeah... get the ASGs

Congrats to those picking up the Black Elites, they just aren't for me though. What I love about the 8s is most have personality. Like, the styles and designs are all mostly out there and sweet. For me, the black elites are just too plain compared to the rest of the family. But I prefer louder the better shoes so that probably has much to do with it.

I'm just the opposite. I don't really see myself wearing most of the loud colors that have been released for the 8 (and really most of the sneakers coming out these days) so the black/gold is perfect for me. Definitely one of my favorite and most comfortable shoes even if the price hike to basically just add the zoom and padded tongue is ridiculous. Glad they released something for pretty much everyone.

I can believe it bro! When I was living in Roxbury, I used to always hit licks on Ralph Lauren, Timbs, Cole Haan's, etc. up at the Marshall's in South Bay Center.

They always had the most randomly dope Nike's in there too, but almost always over Size 13. Never could score on a nice Size 12.

Damn whoever just outbid me on the sz 14 Christmas's on ebay.  Auction was at 199 until like 3 seconds left for a DS pair. Thought I was about to get a steal >:  

I was watching those xmas's too. Not bidding, but wanted to see what they went for. I was like wow, someone's about to get a score. Then u check the winning bidder, who has a zero feedback. Probably just the seller trying to bid it up to what he wants for them, and if they don't outbid his price, then he gets to keep them anyway without getting any negative feedback

[saleenkid01]

Scored size 14 DS Kobe 8 fades and blue glows for $280 shipped. Thought that was a pretty good find

 

[chiacrack]

Even at 175 plus tax the black and gold elites were still too much for me, really wanted them but i'll wait maybe one day I will add them to my collection

I'd stick with the Cloaks. ASGs look like some leftover lasagna
