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

[dtrain12]

This isn't exactly groundbreaking (or relevant to the Kobe 9) but one of my biggest pet peeves with NT is searching through pictures of a thread. I found that if you click on the last picture posted, then click above it where it says "gallery view" it will take you to the bottom of the list with the most recent pics. Much better than starting at the very beginning and having to load and load and load pics.

Long shot. Anyone see any details in store in 8.5? Been looking for the past month and prices are still in the 290-310.

Best Kobe 9s. Honestly these beat out the flyknits IMO. Look VERY good on foot.

I know I am maybe it's just that pic in particular or I'm finally getting soured to the fk lows since I won't get them but those look amazing. 

 

[gasneakerhead]

**** me...woke up at 8:07 today for the concords, was looking to use it for trade bait for some 9s

Too clean, I had to cop

 

[ootherocoo]

Saw the Blk/Wht EM lows today. They look good in person. I'll try to cop down the line. Hopefully they continue to sit.

Laser Crimsons looks fierce on DeRozan

Gonna have to return Easters and snag these instead

 

[tr23]

One small thing I don't like about the 9's is that it doesn't have the snake around the tongue like the 8's. Obviously a very small detail but I think that really made them pop with the logo.

 

[bigslim773]

tigo0240 yea man, I crossed over to the dark side. Lol! U going for 15+ pairs with this line too??

byukid thanks man

 

[Kobekobe]

saw the crimson pair in person today.. on the fence about them.. maybe i'll get em on a discount somewhere down the road.

 

[BIG LEEMELONE]

Yea that crimson is definitely hot pink in person. Seems like Nike goes out of their way to not use red in colorways sometimes

I'm low key kinda pissed . Crimson is like a blood red color. Just call them pink

 

[flip escobar]

Saw these in person and had to cop..  Adding to the Blk/Wht EM lows pic gallery, lol..

 

[jordanhead2]

On my way to the mall to cop my pair

 

[navster]

such a sick color way but with the flyknit lows releasing soon, I can't convince myself to buy any EM, esp at $160 + tax. Not worth it.

I totally agree with ya on that my friend...also IMO the Kobe 8 fit better overall cause it basically took shape of your foot when laced up, the Kobe 9 seems like ist really WIDE/FLAT on feet.....also i liked how the Kobe 8 had those cut-outs on the upper inbetween the first lace lock down by the toebox and the other cut-out along the top lacelock, witch made it crease easier IMO..the Kobe 9 doesnt have any cut-outs whatsoever...its just a str8 line from the tongue to the toebox, kinda folds when walkin....lol...

IMO if the 8s were worth the 140+ tax then the the EM are worth the 160. Better traction, thicker insole, and if you remove the insoles the actually footbed is cushioned too unlike the kobe 8s. I think 160 is high for any shoe but the upgrades are  worth the 20 increase IMO if youre a hooper

Scored big today. Went to get the Kobe's and left with 11s also. You have to love those people that get tickets and then don't actually buy the shoes. After getting the Easters and now these I believe my KD collection will cease and I've turned to the Kobe's. It's like they were made for my feet. Maybe it's just me but they are way more comfy than the KD 4s & 6s and a bit more than the 5s.

 

[ootherocoo]

Un-DS my "Easters" today.  I love them!!!

 

[jhwang37]

Looks GOOOOD MANNN. The kobes and the tech fleece sweats.
