OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

Anyone have some pictures or how to tell if the Kobe 8 insoles have bottom-ed out?

I only have used pairs of Kobe 8s so I am not sure if the insoles are "bottom-ed out" per say, but I do still feel cushioning so I assume its not bottomed out. Without the luxury of owning a new pair I just want to make sure if there is an easy way to tell.

Go by feel more than looks.  It doesn't matter what they look like compared to how they feel when you play in them.

I knew mine were gone when the impact protection just wasn't there, especially from hard landings.  Once you feel they are dead, take a look a them.
 
Curious how the insoles perform or hold up over time?  The insoles seem different from the previous models.  I was thinking about changing mines or something.  The inside seems really soft and slippery.

There have been some great hoop models since (not necessarily the Kobe line or Nike), but everytime I throw these back on to play in with a lunar insert that's still good, I forget how much I love em
