does look wolf grey to me as well... i think i am just more upset they havent done another sole like the all star or the detail... something different you feel me?

Yea man I feel u...black would've been nice imo, or even that red orange color

I think the shozoku on those Jerry Bus Jacket joints

are 3m? Kinda looks like it, maybe even the speckling on the laces.. On another note, those Strategy's look like they have some potential. Can't really tell with these teaser pics. I feel like the initial leaked pics always have bad lighting or something which makes you dislike the shoe.. And then they drop the nice pics on you, and you're like omg

Dude let it Go...

I wasn't even trying to be the one arguing about it. It just seemed stupid that someone was defending the stupid jacket theme of the shoe so hard. These nike explanations are a joke.

Undsing today to my nephews 1st bday

I know this is late as ever... but... where did you get those laces?

 

[monfeli3]

Why do some people take things so literally? Nike says that the blue kobe's are "inspired" by the signature look of the legendary owner playing poker, and certain folks just expect it to be a spitting image of the shoe when they see the picture of Jerry Buss in his blue coat. Regardless of how intelligent you may be, you flat out look dumb arguing over whether a pair of Kobe's is or isn't inspired by Jerry Buss' poker coat. If someone already said this, my bad. If not, then it needed to be said.

IMO

 

[mastralf]

For nike "inspired" can be like "based on a true story" in the movies. Part of it is there but the rest is all made up lol.

On a different subject... I added the MPs to my collection today! Amazing! Couldn't be happier!

Brave blue say what? Hahaha

ima pass on these due to lack of funds

I'm going to pass because I don't like the highs; however, if they were lows... I'd double up.

arguing about what the colorway was based off of, the jacket or angels

How much for a VNDS Kobe 9 Beethovens right now? I'm thinking of buying one and this seller is willing to give them to me for $230 shipped. And I'm still unsure if I should just get the Beethovens or the brave blues this weekend, which I have a 20% promo code that I can use for them

Never mind, I'll just pass on them. I just saw that left shoe has very lite discoloration and bottom of the tongue has a light purple color.

Nice pickup man! So you got all three elite lows, the chinas and 2 premiums are they the PP red/blue/green? Also I love the ASG but wish I had details too, you can't go wrong with either but i reckon the grey high are very different to the MPs and crazy DETAILED hence the name.

Laces are from the all star VI's bro

 

[Deleted member 107398]

after owning both the ASG's and MP's, I had no issue letting go of the ASG's...the MP's reign supreme

Haven't snagged any Kobes since the Tovens came out. I'm looking forward to Saturday.

I've picked up a few since the Beethoven's, but I've slowed down since the beginning of the 9. Most of the EM's have been a pass, and the new highs are looking like passes as well. Of course, when I see these new highs in person or in shots here I'll probably regret that.

Too many unimaginative outsoles, and too many fruit flavored EM CW's. Still in the market to pick up the Philippines though.
