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

[crazy ebw]

i do cut to the basket, and i do plant my feet.

are you saying it will support my foot because nike said so, or because you've tried it? (serious question) .. cause there's no flynit bball shoes out on the market as far as i know and i wouldn't dare to use runners playing basketball.
no

I'm saying it because more than likely it's true. I doubted EM and it worked AMAZING and taking it to the next level is even more exciting.

Lunar flyknits are my most comfortable shoes I own. Thinking of that as a basketball shoe gives me faith. Do I need anything else?

 

[crazy ebw]

That's all that needs to be said.

It's the double standard. You can't bash it unless you have tried it. 

The best way to describe it is a sock with a sole.

NSW Lifestyle's wouldn't be half bad if Nike didn't insist on putting dumb materials on them. Just do regular leather and call it a ******g day

Agree with this 100%, lunar flyknits were the first thing that came to mind when I saw this shoe. I think it going to be really interesting to see how these perform. I hope they meet and exceed my expectations. So long as it's available the masterpiece will be mine, I just hope it's for retail and not some absurd reseller price

 

[crazy ebw]

Ready for the 8s to be over with so we can move on to the masterpiece.

Honestly the Lifestyles arent to bad IMO, better than last years but still need to see some better colorways

The New Kobe 9 Shirt is very nice, but the style of the shoe just ain't gonna do it for me...

lunarlon on the 8s is perfect for me

Only problem for me is they wear down really fast.  I feel like the padding is worn out already.

How fast or shld I say how many wears do u think it take before u start to notice the padding gettin worn out. I barely wear my 8s

After the 7-9th session I felt the padding on the Lunarlon sagging.  

I heard others having this issue on the Kobe 8 thread.

Thanks for the link didn't see that shirt before.

 

[thapointguy]

Shirt design is not a masterpiece design :x

 

[blastercombo]

Nike shirts never are. Better than those "look at my swag" shirts though ...:x

 

[iks mod]

I love the full length lunarlon, just not how long it lasts...

Adidas's boost foam tech though... if only I had an insole made of that stuff

That shirt isn't nice at all. Hate the two sided colors on front and back :x

Still hoping that this is more or less the low pair.

 

[domosirchazzo]

Oh it's not certain that those are the lows?

That's the version I was most looking forward to.

Having that high version is only dope to me if it's accompanied with this lower cut.

But if all we get is the high, I'll be a little bit disappointed.
