[Black Lotus]

All the Kobe 8s we know of:

1) Sulfur (GR)

2) Christmas

3) BHM

4) Blue Coral Snake (GR)

5) Supernatural (GR)

6) Black YOTS EXT (Snake skin)

7) Red Suede YOTS EXT

14) Inlines (Grey and Yellow)

15) Assists (Grey and Purple)

16) Easters

17) Poison Green Elites

1 Duke PEs

19) Westchester PEs

20) Crayola/N7/Barcelonas

21) Black/ White/Gold Elite+ (Since KD and LBJ have one)

THAT MEANS ONLY FIVE GENERAL RELEASES!

All the KDs we know of:

1) Christmas

2) Splatter (GR)

3) ASG

4) BHM
5) Aunt Pearls

6) Easter

7) N7

Ice Blue (GR)

9) Texas (GR)

10) Away (GR)

11) Home (GR)

12) DMV (GR)

13) Atomic Teal (GR)

14) Black Pack (GR x4)

15) Thunder Gradients

16) Green Blue Elite Lows

17) Black White Gold Elite +

1 Pink/Teal Elite Lows

19) Thunder Away KD V lows

20) Alternative Thunder Away PE

21) Orange Yellow Lows

22) Gold/White/ Purple Diamonds PE

That would be 10 General Releases.

My point is: Why does Kobe only have half the GR KD does?

And don't tell me that its because the Kobe line is popular.

The KD iv last year was BUT they atleast sat on shelves!

depends where your at... last year my local shoe shops didnt get any KDs except mayb a  few easter KDs n that was it... most KD IVs seemed limited at least around socal

1. There have been 6 GR Kobe's up to now, including Red Camos.
2. The KD line starts month ahead of the Kobe line.
3. The x4 GR KD 4 you listed were pretty much TBs, we normally get those from the Kobe line in summer or fall.
4. You listed Kobe's that are PEs, really shouldn't count.
5. There will be more Kobe 8 colors releasing in fall, well after the Lebron X and KD V are done.

Didn't really care for these but like always as more pics come out I'm slowly starting to want them....I still want the inlines (if that's the grey upper purp sole) more but I'd buy the fades too....bring on the purps Nike!

Heads up manila NTers.. Easters sz 10.5 up for grabs at MOA. Get it while it's sitting my tts is 10.5 but the shoes aint for me though 

Does manila get the xdr version?

 

[eyedea]

Off topic but asked this in the lebron thread and fr no bites: what does it mean when a color way is "nrg"

 

[la kb24]

with random ppl posting pictures of the purple fades, they definitely must be releasing next month

 

[gil23]

Volts gr tho? the demand wasn't there that's why they didn't fly off the shelves. Mostly only hoh got them.

I won a raffle for the Kobe 8 All Star from my local HOH that just opened up. Love this shoe. I was also in London and they had some Kobe 8 there. Surprised to see the BHM on the sale table but only had small sizes left.

 

[isniker]

Anybody in the Lakewood/Downey area looking for easters? The Stonewood Mall had several stores that had them sitting...

all sold out today, they're closed yesterday or closed early I think

 

[countonkobe]

That's enough with the kobe pictures @countonkobe

never say "enough with the kobe pics" in a kobe shoe thread....

 

[numba24]

From kb24

"The Easter Kobe 8's will launch on our site tomorrow, April 2nd at 10am PST. Due to the limited availability, we urge all customers to order the shoes at the time they are launched, if possible. All orders placed will be shipped out Wednesday and Friday so shoes should be received by the weekend or early next week. Feel free to respond with any further questions or concerns."

You're Welcome.
