OFFICIAL : Zoom Kobe V (5) thread - Ace launch on 3/6

I got a pair of Chaos V's yesterday from someone in Cali for retail and shipping and MAN these shoes are AMAZING!!! They are lite and so comfortable. I canhonestly say I am done with whack jordan brand thanks to these. Quality is crazy and way more comfortable! Im completely new to kobes so can someone tell mewhich ones are quickstrikes? Im assuming the Chaos, DK's, Bruce Lee's? Not that I only want quickstrikes but just trying to build up knowledge on them.Thanks!
 
I thought that I was going to only get a couple of pairs but it looks like im wrong. So far on my list are DK, Bruce Lees, CD and the olympics. My kobecollection is slowly but surely starting to get ridiculous!!!!!!
 
Jordanhead21 - Welcome. You are now supporting a 4x champion.... And the Bruce lees are some what limited. Not going to be massed produced like the gr aways orchaos.

One thing about Kobes.... They're widely available.... But if your in search of a Kobe that released 2 months ago, forget about it. And once playoff****... You better be on toes

That's some English well written. I'd also like to add that these shoes don't crease !

Not trying to play it smart just correcting, the TPU sandwhich gets softer when heated thus molds around your foot. The Flywire cables are just following dueto the flexibility the cables have. Indeed these babies don't crease at all and once again that happens thanks to the TPU properties. Can't wait forthe DK's!!!
 
I don't know but when I took my shoes off, they were hot and soft, the upper that is. The whole shoe just felt like a rubber band of some sort. I doublesocked too (Dri-fits)
 
^Yeah, I noticed that too. The material on the upper becomes more supple when it's warm.

These V's are performance beasts.

no only Bruce Lees and aways not the DK
 
Wore my Chaos Vs today for a day of work & boy can I say they feel great.. I have noooooooooooo complaints at all & got alot of positive feedback fromother customers... my question is how the hell can Nike get better than this with the Kobe VI??
 
gdiemaster- you had me plotting for a sec. haha

I bet when real pics of the Carpes surface they'll look better, but like someone else said, I really liked the different tongue that the carpe IV'shad.
I think they should have continued that with the V, just my .02

imo, and not from a collectors side, nikes best shoe is hard to buy. why do that? your best technology is largly unknown.
 
I see where you are coming from bro^^...but when I first wore the IVs I felt Nike cant do any better than these but they proved me wrong.. I work for FTL so Itry ON every damn sneaker or Im buying sneakers every week & Kobe Vs have to be the best basketball/everyday shoe in YEARS... Kobe always pushes Nike &I really respect him for that unlike Lebron or Jordan, Kobe has desire behind his shoe thats why they are great.
 
So is the carpe diem just a name (whats it mean?) or is it a certain material? Sorry guys im new at this! And to my knowledge Bruce Lee's and DK's onthe.....16th??
 
Its Bruce Lee and Aways on Jan 16th.

Dark Knight is on Feb 20th.

Someone update pg 1 please?
