FYI... I went to the camarillo nike outlet this past weekend and I found some nike basketball shorts that match the dark knights. I will post pics later.

Price?

I found some Kobe Venom shorts on Ebay that would match nicely with the away or DK

Enter the Zoom: Kobe Posterizes New Kicks Inspired By Bruce Lee
"Mo Williams, you have offended my family and you have offended the Shaolin Temple."

As part of the rollout for the Zoom Kobe V Bruce Lee variants, Nike mocked up some posters of Bryant doing his best impressions of cinema's most famous martial arts master. The shoes themselves are rockin' a yellow and black jumpsuit motif from "Game of Death" (most recently popularized by Uma Thurman's get-up in "Kill Bill Vol. 1"). There are also three red scratch marks reminiscent of the cuts inflicted by Han in "Enter the Dragon." Don't miss the results in all their heavenly glory:

Bryant immediately asked for a new arm tattoo after mistaking the characters for "kung fu" over his shoulder as "Kobe."

What's deadlier than the Black Mamba Fist? Apparently the dreaded Zoom-chucks.

Jeet Kune Do? More like Feet in Low(tops).

Kobe works up a sweat demonstrating his ultimate technique, the Three-Inch Lace.

The special edition shoes went on sale at select locations on February 6. In case you missed your first shot and don't want to get gouged right now, the kicks go into wider release sometime this Spring/Summer.

Hold off on ebay prices.... prices will go down when no one buys them.... resellers wont want to hold on to them after a few weeks.... same happened with the Finals ZKIVs... be PATIENT!

How accurate is this info? Anyone able to confirm this?

i just picked up some chaos's and i would say true to size in length and a little narrow on the width. i'm hoping after a few games they will break in.

 

[dneou20]

^^ They do indeed break in, and once broken in they feel great.
i had to switch from the IV to the V because my right ankle is still swollen a bit
and the cut of the IV, no matter how i position the tongue or whatnot just rubs on my ankle
it sucks because i absolutely LOVED the IVs, but the Vs are a great show to follow hte IV

So I should get the same size as my IVs then, right? I'm about to order the Chaos right now.

 

[dneou20]

^^I'd suggest getting hte same size.

I also want to know as well. but if you had to bet on it, i doubt they will restock. most of the stock was released on RD and they aren't planning on re-producing these. 
Also, keep in mind that it's ESPN. I highly doubt they are accurate when it comes to RD's about "shoes".

Can't go wrong witht the Kobe V Impulse. I just bought them on eastbay with a coupon code.

 

[s dubl]

Tony...you just made a huge mistake posting that.

were going to get "are the Lees still re-releaseing in the summer" until December now.

Lex....my tracking hasn't updated since 8:16am. I just checked it again...it says arrival scan 8:16am in Vernon, Ca. It doesn't even give me a scheduled delivery date smh.
