WOW! Love those. Scales a different color than the mesh!? A little gradient..?

I like the red accents personally! Looks like a green translucent sole too

Nike don't care.

Shoe will sell anyway, and Kobe gets PEs with a tweaked outsole.

Are you sure about that? Why wouldn't Nike and Kobe want his fans to have the same traction that he has? Why be so overly supportive a company that does things like this?

I don't get it.

  

he doesnt know what hes talking about, kobes pairs are the exact same as the pairs we get. he even uses the original insole...

Im hoping for this too...

The overall feel of the shoe is amazing though. If they even made a hybrid ZKVI with a ZKV outsole, OMG - performance BEAST!

Do you still beat the other team in your VI's?

No, I only played that one game in the VI.
  
Abtract, NWT, Blackcat, and I played 4on4 vs some other guys at the gym though and we just ran them off the court. This was after 4 games of 2on2 vs eachother and the other team was fresh.

We had never played together before but did really well meshing our games on the fly to rep NT well.

  i loved that second to last game when it was 13-2 lol great run guys and definitely the best mix guys on our first time playing together.  Especially given out of the 4 on the other team, the 2 pairs of guys knew each other.

i also thought it was funny when they realized it was team kobe Vs lol. 

great meeting you guys and we are definitely gonna do it again.

P.S. Kevin is a JERK FACE.

anything described as a basketball air max 2009 isworth the money
  

noble im sure they are messing with E...that freaking hypebeast.

lol jk

Haha. I am and I don't give a what what in the butt!!! Haha. They're the dopest lebrons since like 1997 or somethin'. Haha I need some spice in my life Drew

haha i hear you, they are probably the nicest cw in his line.

btw, speaking of the VI traction (btw got to see them in person this weekend from mugen and they are pretty nice though...just too bad to hear the traction wasnt the greatest.) but I hope designers know that given they give shoes to testers for testing...i would think thats one if not the most important factors in the shoe design.  hope they fix that issue, whether with better material or traction design.

As for clear soles on the Vs, it might just be a ID thing because I played in my V rings this weekend with mugen, abstract, and NWT and they were good (first time playing in them) for my V aways i had to play in them a couple of times before the traction felt good to me.  That or the floor was cleaner than what Im normally playing on.

haha i posted the same thought...just didnt see your post before mines.  but yea i agree. I wonder if that was stated or noticed.

on another note about the VI....although the traction was subpar to the V....i must say the fit due in part to the insoles made the heel to toe traction feel SMOOOOTH....it was nice and a completely different feel and it was nice.

Once you start a shoes upper with snakeskin, theres no turning back. Im glad they found a green snake theme to attach to some event or holiday.. Will we see a python camo brown look in the future?

 

[marley]

Those Christmas Days are the first pair I have seen that blow me away. I will have to get those. So much for "I aint buyin any of those nasty VI's" Haha, I knew it wouldnt last.
