OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

Noob question, how does that work?  Never stock located a pair before.  Just go in and ask and they get the pair shipped to their store or to your house?

You need the Foot Locker SKU number and just have an employee look it up to see who has your size in stock. If successful, they can then have it either shipped to your house or to the store where you ordered them.

Go to Foot Locker and try to stock locate a pair

you need the sku for the particular store (footlocker, champs, or foot action. They all have unique skus). It's from the white sticker on the box flap. Someone should have it here, or search eBay, you'll find auctions with box pics that some will have the sku. Bring it in, and ask them to stock locate.

Shipped to store at no extra charge, or to your house for $2-3 extra. Beware of the bag of doom tho. Your box will more than likely be TRASHED.
 
I actually never went.  I have been up there a few times a couple years back to visit my brother.  He graduated from there 2 years ago.  I would go up to hoop with him, he was on the club bball team.  I am actually a Senior at USI, it is about 2 hours away south.  I might go up this semester sometime and maybe we could hoop!  
Nice, shoot me a PM.

For future reference, they can also look up shoes with the Footlocker.com product number.
 
Thanks for the help fellas.  Props to you both Dark Steel and s dubl

The GC has a thicker outsole and is usually meant for outdoors. I think they're fine for indoors also but I'm not sure. I was looking at the same listing because I've been looking for a size 12 in the sulfurs as well.

i believe it has been explained that while the GC outsole is more durable for outdoor use, it's actually a cheaper, lower grade rubber that's less "sticky". especially indoors.

For what its worth...I've hooped in 4 diff pairs of non GC Kobe's and my one pair of GC (shout out to the full logo on sulfurs) had far better grip on the court. Easters I played the most in and after a few months of wear they have a nice grip on hardwood.

Yes
 
in my opinion the elite aways are one of the nicest colorways but the price is just too high. I'm going to see if I can scoop up a pair when they hit nike outlets.
 
How long would GC/XDR soles last for using them for outdoor play 2 times a week....not playing too hard just playing lightly? Because I'm tempted to buy the Kobe 8 Easter GC's I see on eBay but I want to know how long they would last.
 Also I don't know if the Easter GC's on eBay are authentic or not...
 
saw the red boas at D*cks... best bulls colorway so far

would cop, but I usually to save the reds for Js...

I've been wearing my Blue lights for about 4 months now, for all sorts of activities including walking, jogging, gym, and sports.

My outsole has worn off a bit, but it's still there.

So your soles will last you quite a while, I would say at least 6+ months.
