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

[yaimthatdude]

both times they sold out they've said everything and anything they wanted to. Some tweets got "they'll be back, stay tuned" and some got "no they will not return, check other options here .....", and others got what you just posted. All Nike reps and twitter account operators either know nothing, or are messing with people on purpose just because.

thanks bruh didn't know that

Yea that's what they said last time and I wanna say after all orders were fulfilled they dropped them again. So keep your fingers crossed

nice. ill be keeping an eye on it for sure thanks bruh bruh

According to this here lace length guide it should be 45, but I'm not exactly sure.

[fransravo]

Any idea what length those are?

I don't really know. I took them off my ID kobe 9 flyknit lows so they are the same ones used on the general release shoes.

Someone posted earlier in the thread that the Beethoven laces are 49inches.

Use ebay and craigslist.  It'll take time but you'll sell them eventually.

Have a meetup at Kings Plaza tomorrow to dump some Jays.....gonna try to pick up the Reds. For anyone in BK, who's in the area....wheres my best bet at copping? Should I try the area or take my chances at the HoH in downtown BK (copped my MJs there weeks after they dropped)

I don't mind the hunt, in some ways I enjoy it.....just don't wanna spend my day off from work hunting aimlessly if you know what I mean

They're 49 inches.


45 Inch laces work just fine though.

I bought these (they sell them everywhere), they're a bit thicker but when you lace up they constrict: https://sofsole.com/product/laces

testing..

 standard red flat laces... 54 inch

just trying them on..  flat tubular laces are better than these..

Moonwalkers (size 14) with 45" sofsole grey "flat" laces:

This is what the laces look like when they aren't pulled.

 

[lypac]

Thats a clean lace swap.

 

[wootonralph]

^ those are tubed right? when you try to pinch them they turn round

 

[tigo0240]

I think I know what you're getting at...but I don't think so. They're flat laces with a loose weave. When you pinch them they fold over.


edit: yes they're tubed
