OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

Easters have def grown on me, but my anger keeps growing too... Why the **** can't they give us a Laker colorway. I feel like they added the teal just to tease the people that want Laker colorways.

Laker colors tend to release after the finals, for the past couple years (VI-VII).

At least we got the concord VI and VII within the first few releases... I'd be happy right now with an inline/concord colorway. I might just go the ID route...

Purple fades are nice, but at the moment I'm leaning towards passing.
 
Laces got a dose of viagra :lol: Grey laces or leave the blue ones in there imo. I should bite the bullet and just get the Blue Snakes smh
 
Went to Footaction today and they had two pairs of the sulfurs, 4 pairs of the blue lights and at least 10 pairs of the pythons on display. Too bad I have them all already.

You will buy purp fades, TRUST

(as your all stars are in the mail...)

:rofl:
 
It just means Nike SportsWear. It will basically be like the NSW pairs that recently released, based more for style and causal use than to use on the court. Just like the corks were NSW. The new brons are more than likely the denim and brown suede pairs.

This is what I'm trying to say, I've seen samples of take downs that look nothing like
the original models/cork/kobe NSW type release. I've seen a LeBron X and XI on a vulc sole.
Kinda like some Blazers but with a different upper. I'm just saying that it can be either the
vulc sole or like the recently released cork-like release that literally mimics the performance release.

Or the Lakers have been so bad this year Nike scared they gona sit,

but when they make the playoffs Nike can drop just in time for the bandwagoners.

No matter how bad the Lakers are the fan base behind them is too strong to make much of a difference. It may be the reason, but I doubt it.
 
Wonder what the purp fades would look like with yellow laces.

I'm going to nick name them the sizzurps.
 
I told myself, after the Easters. I'll take a break on the 8's.  MUST RESIST !!!

For da purple fade beasts, saw on tumblr. anyway they straight and i will be debatin a cop come release week
 
Really cool to see the success of the kobe 8 line, low top shoes in general I tend to favor... Never at anytime and/or point have a ever seen so many people wear kobes(8) EVER! It is really refreshing to see more people more interested in kobes and not just myself and a few friends, although they don't feel same way as I do. All in all I hope the success inspires dope concepts for future models in the kobe line...On another note so happy they did not go with the generic forefront swoosh with the 8's like all the other signature basketball shoes..

we'd probably see the Swoosh change in future Kobes. hope so.
 
You guys that say the kobe elite socks are comfortable... I probably got a bad pair because those are the most uncomfortable socks I have ever worn. I don't have wide feet or flat feet either. Really regret spending $16+ bucks on them damn.
