OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

[trunkz550]

^Nice line up! I have all those except the sulfurs, lol. Kobe IV's are my fav but I'm waiting for more cw's to rank the 8's. Performance wise they are up there with the IV/V's.

 

[norwaydre]

These BHMs are lookin nice *fab* voice 

That price increase is boo boo tho

 

[richmond14]

Damn, looking at the IV, v, vi and 8, the 7 may as well have not existed. What were they thinking?? Damn

 

[waverder]

I like the commercial..

 

[sk33termcg33]

To dudes saying that people only like sulfurs because their easily attainable: cool. Whatever happened to liking a shoe cause I like the damb shoe?

Oh wait, I'm supposed to only like shoes that are ugly, limited, and ones where I have to wait at my computer like a crackhead waiting at dudeman's front door to get my ****!

Some of y'all don't like sulfurs, some do (me included). I don't like the Xmas lights, y'all do. But I never called y'all hype beasts for copping them? I guess you get clowned if your boys see you wearing kicks that "regular" people can buy? FOH with that nonsense...

 

[AimbotHacker]

the new commercial is pretty epic, not as funny as the ones before though

Edit double post

 

[tdogg2k]

the hate for 7s still blow my mnd but whateverI

 

[geoff2005]

so far i think 7 have better CW. only xmas lights and bhm from 8s look nice.

performance wise 7s gotta be the worst

anyways

eastbay already got KD backpacks and they just came out on Nike. when are you guys getting the kobe 8 backpacks?!

 

[dar228]

Torn between the Pythons and BHM I ned both in my life!

I like them both but Pythons > BHM's

 

[djyoung08]

People hate on the 7's here... i really liked them

Oh well...

Cant wait to snag these 8's in march!!!

 

[jedixsole]

[ohshoefreak]

yea the 8 colors are iffy so far. they could do so much more if they didnt make almost every theme camo style.

i still ball in my VIIs and have no issues with them after they are broken in. they are stiff at 1st tho.

 

[lewi1913]

Happy that I bought 3 pairs of sulphurs right before my swoosh expired

my local footlocker (solano mall) got a shipment of the python colored kobe 8 elite socks...

Best bet is to call around the various stores in your area

 

[scrub0bk]

still no conformation on date for YOTS? i saw sneakernews reporting jan 25th but i think that might be the asia release date

 

[la kb24]

man seems like the socks are hard to find. good thing i bought them before the sulfurs even released lol

 

[kingjay718]

Praying those purple gradients drop...

This is just stupid how could they release socks before shoes (limited quantities) and now when shoes are out and more color available no socks and no one knows when they gonna get more .
Just stupid move by NIKE.

 

[hoosier bad boy 11]

I never had a Kobe shoe but it's between the pythons and the BHM for me CAN'T WAIT

Agreed.

I Picked up 5 pairs of the python socks in hopes to be able to trade for a blk/white pair.

I mentioned before that you can give the UPC to a footlocker employee at the register to order a pair.
