i second the resellers comment! Even is shoe which some consider ugly might be a mission to get due to these money hungry dudes

I wonder if Nike is going to release Christmas T's to go with these.
Imagine a matching green shirt with Kobe doing the Grinch smile, with a Santa hat drooping down one side...

I would like it if Nike made a shirt with a cartoon pic of the Grinch on the front.. Not Kobe though.

Plus, Idk if they could do the actual Grinch thing because of copyright issues.

They did get the rights for Homer Simpson on a shirt so you never know.

Tried on these last night thanks to the homie at my FTL. Now I know how they fit so I can be waiting in line to iD some.

I don't mind the scale but they are shiny, but I will pick up the del sols. I like the no shine scales several pages back.

Toosmoove, curious what that fraud fighter machine is for? Does it scan the shoe tags and tell you they are fake or not?

What if someone returned a fake pair of shoes? Has that happened before? Or employees are trained to spot fakes? Just messing with the last question

i find it weird and somewhat frustrating that we dont have a release date for the grinches. we less than a month away from xmas and no info. when exactly did the chaos release last year? was it the 26th? we already got word that the del sols will release on the 26th.

maybe it's a quickstrike or it won't release after all 

 

[Kobekobe]

or maybe you guys should relax? nike introduced the 5's around the 2nd week of December 2009. just chill, i'm sure they'll give us information when they do the OFFICIAL announcement.

someone talked to a Nike rep that said they'll be available to sell on December 25 (or was it 26th?). 
hopefully they allow us to make ID's well before that, like last year

My bad fellas. They fit better than the ZK5. I had on these thin socks from Journey's & they felt good in those so I can only image how they'll feel when I have on some no show NBA or Elite socks.

That's because there's nothing but old people in Florida. Old people don't wear Nikes. They wear shoes from Costco.

Good one, but we rock kicks in the FLA, Orlando is mainly for tourists at those outlets, nobody going there looking for Kobe's

 

[kobeoverbron]

hope they make a matte finish blackout pair. that would be perfect.

 

[drewdioxin]

The shoe scene is pretty decent in Fla. We are just really spread out when it comes to the actual collectors/ serious heads. There are tons of hypebeasts and jb fans around my way though.
