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

[][v][aximus]

I think those laces are fire tbh. Are the swoosh/heel stripes/speckles on midsole GITD as well?? 

 

[staplescenter]

Those REDs on those pics are FiRE! I thought the beets are my only low fk.

 

[mrdeeds]

I can't stand the laces or speckles on the red fk, even if I overlooked the black sole the potential these had was just wasted.

Please explain or show an id version so I can visualize what a few folks have said about these red flyknits potential.

I think since the image has been out there for so long most of us were expecting the pic below or something close to it.
Even if they didn't do a red gitd sole, a red clear sole like the way moonwalkers had a clear purplish sole would have been nice too.

WHY ARE WE YELLING... O.O

Seems like people do it more for attention rather than yelling

 

[mastralf]

 
Slept in thinking that the Kobes weren't the hot ticket, man I was wrong. Got lucky and scored the last size 11 beethoven at the HoH in Portland. There was a cat in front of me who scored the last 13 too. Lucky, but a close call I guess. Time to step back from the rising demand. I can't keep up with the job I got now, lining up and all.

Dam I was just out there looking for a 13 lol. You go to Washington Square? I got there around 8:00 and I didn't them at all sadly. Congrats on the pick up though.

Just wait it out. Price will come down.

Bet you think the Kobe 8 and LeBron X tanked too then.

DID YOU EVEN THINK BEFORE YOU TYPED THAT???

SMH.

CLEARLY I RECOGNIZED THE 8'S AS A SUCCESSFUL LINE. THE LEBRON 10 AS WELL.

FOR EXAMPLE, GO ON NDC, LOOK AT HOW MANY LEBRON 11'S AND KOBE 9 EM'S ARE AVAILABLE AND CONSIDER THEIR RELEASE DATES.

LEBRON 11'S ARE AT THE END OF THEIR LINE ANYWAY SO TO HAVE SEVERAL C/W'S STILL AVAILABLE... THAT ISNT GOOD IMO.

KOBE 9'S ARE AT LEAST 25% OR EVEN 50% THRU THEIR LINE, LOOK AT HOW MANY EM C/W'S ARE STILL AVAILABLE.


LIKE I SAID BEFORE, CLEARLY THE MASSES ARENT DIGGING THEM AND AS ALWAYS, ITS PERSONAL PREFERENCE. LIKE ME, I THINK I HAVE 5 OF THE 1ST 7(OR 8 ) EM C/W'S RELEASED...


JUST A MATTER OF PREFERENCE AND THAT REFLECTS SALES.

I agree with you to a certain extent, the EM's have mostly been trash and the highs would be outlet shoes if they were produced in the same numbers that Lebron XI's are.

I think the biggest fail so far has been not widely releasing the htm pairs.

The red Fk lows are a go 

​

Those and WTLs on same day might be a problem though

Doubt it, ndc will crash and burn for about a half hour and when it comes back up there will be a fsr of red FK's and a lot people will be crying in the lebron thread.

 wouldn't be surprised if that's 100% accurate. These will fly right under the radar unless production #s are insanely low which is highly unlikely

Yea not my Steeze. These don't convince me they could've done better. Just my opinion. I know all red is all the hype now, but I wouldn't be able to pull off.

I better not sleep on these puppy

 

[the red model]

 
 Nice job man at least u chose the best 9's to paint and not the other one lol

 

Yeah man, the masterpieces are in the top 5 shoes all the time for me. Beethoven's are great too but I was scared of not being able to clean them. My wallet has also had enough. #starvingartist

First thing I thought about when all the "yelling" started.

 

[kingal11]

Damn I love Michigan for sneakers 


Just called a FTL -  and the lady told me she had pairs of Kobe Beethoven's still sitting...


I'm gonna go see what's up now

[earldagoat]

 

[kingal11]

Let me know if there is any sizes left, like I said I'm going to be in that area this weekend. Thanks in advance

 

[angels47]

September 13th is gonna be an expensive day with the red flyknits and WTL.

 

[byukid]

Red fk pair kick the crap out of the moonwalkers and beethovens.

 

[ondiiish]

How long are the laces on the Elite lows?

 

[goat4521]

Red fk pair kick the crap out of the moonwalkers and beethovens.

Shots fired!!!!!

 

[bowb4me]

Red fk pair kick the crap out of the moonwalkers and beethovens.

+1 totally agree.

 

[1Cn9wL8dg3]

gitd!  

 

[bowb4me]

I was hoping only the specs and laces glow. Looks like the swoosh and (guessing) the lines on the back tab do also. Not a deal breaker.
