THE OFFICIAL KOBE 9 THREAD ****** WHAT THE KOBE RELEASED ******** BHM RELEASE 1/19

[kmstivers]

Saw a few people say they fit like the 9 highs do. For that reason, I'm going a half size down.

YESSIR me too i wear normally 10's in all of my kobes 1-8 excluding the 7's.. but i have to get a 9.5 in order for me to ball in them.

have the chance to save $45 on lows if I win the raffle

I dont bother anymore with the raffles. I have better luck at Nike Store or waiting for unclaimed pairs than winning raffles. Just my experience.

TBH we don't exactly know how "low" the Regular Kobe IX will be, just that it will most likely be flyknit and definitely lower than the elite. But it might be mid-level height for all we know.

"We" as in you work for Nike or "We" as in the NT community? 

I always assumed the flyknit version would be exactly like the lows, except it's obviously flyknit instead of em. I never thought it would be a different shoe altogether.

 

[blastercombo]

These shoes were meant to be highs and the lows were nothing but an afterthought and it shows.

Kobe 8 Easter > Kobe 9 Easter IMO

Agreed, but let's give the 9 Easters time to settle in. Took a while for a lot of us (myself included) to appreciate the true beauty of the 8 Easters.

The NT community of course. I seriously doubt a different shoe altogether. But I also don't think it will be exactly the EM low's with flyknit instead. Maybe I'm wrong.

Niketroll... Venomenon 'Lakers'

Thats a bit too much yellow. The Venomenon or more like team model shoes the way they color block them. I like how they are removing that shiny fuse on the shoe to show the mesh more. Those first 4 or 5 had them on didn't look that great. Back to the 9 talk.

Amy spot got details in an 11 or 11.5

I think MPs are very nice and would rather have the MP than the ASG, but the ASG is also a sight to be seen.  Pics don't do these shoes justice at all.

How are people hating on these? They look comfy as hell

Look Comfy?... So does a pair of TOMS or Jack Purcells. Comfort is an attribute, but nobody's buying these for the sole reason of Comfort...

And the UNNECESSARY Volt colored Tongue makes this an EASY PASS for me.
