[kimterran]

Was anyone able to cop the Philippines on the restock?

That was just a myth, there was no restock

Cause i sure as hell didn't get them

 

[illmatic]

Wasn't a myth. They were indeed restocked. 

 

[Kobekobe]

[isniker]

 
C'mon Nike, replica CWs showing you up

replica makers know the sequoias are better as a low

Yeah I was being sarcastic lol

I've been waiting all day on my computer and still didn't get them

 

[a11skillz]

Not sure what to keep. Showtime or Golds haha. Got both in a size nine. Ordered a 9.5 in the Golds but then a 9 showed up. Guess one is going back.

 

[joedafloe]

Anyone know where i can get some kobe 9 philippines size 9? I'll even pay resell price.

 

[mastralf]

Unless an amazing cw comes out I'm done. I would get the MP without a blink of an eye if they restock. The only pair I been back an forth on is the beethoven. I like them but they aren't a must have for me. Then again I've never seen em in person

Im waiting to see what they do for xmas and bhm but I agree nothing released is worth me spending 200+ for and MPs are the benchmark for me.

I didnt get the hype over beethovens, seen them in person and wasnt impressed but the best elite low to drop thus far excluding the IDs

[jerseysauce]

It all comes back to the MPs and Details.

Beethovens  ~Detail lows

MC ID are MP lows.


Make a great low, damnit!

Beethovens are the best kb9 . They are not detail lows.
I would love to see at least one more elite low cw though.

 

[ricanmamba]

My favorite cw was the gumbos didn't think anything would top it but the Beethoven's do.

 

[spoonmanofthehour]

To me, the Beethoven's are super overrated.

Not even the best low.

what's the best low? out of the 3 GRs.

 

[mastralf]

I actually have them ranked pretty much equal. They are all great and distinct in their own way.

 

[lewi1913]

I just can't get down with white FK or fuse. It's not white for long...

 

[Magic33]

Yeah, this is how I feel.

They're all underwhelming.

To me, the Beethoven's are super overrated.

Vastly

 

[someone12345]

Stupid question: Are the showtimes easy to clean? I can dump my flyknit runners in water and wash them with soap in 10 minutes to make them good as new, but are the flyknit kobe 9s like that?

From IG Footpatrol:

 Nike Kobe IX Elite High EXT QS ‘Snakeskin’ | Released in-store & online (available online from 8:00AM GMT) on Wednesday 29th October. Sizes range from UK6 – UK11 (not including half sizes), priced at £220. For more in-store size availability please call the store.

Damn 220 GBP 

 

[verbal kint]

Just picked up a pair of EXT.. For me, these are much more comfortable on the foot than the highs.  All seem to run small.  Thus far i've had the Perspectives, Details, Brave Blues and Exts Mids. I've ended up returning or selling all except the Exts, which i think i will end up keeping.

Oddest thing is just how small these run. I normally wear a size 12, and when holding the Kobe V's and the EXT's heel to heel, my size 12 Kobe V, is noticeably larger than my size 13 EXT. The only way to make them wearable was by removing the thick insole it arrives with.

Side note, im surprised the EXT's arent more popular.  One of the best looking and best-fitting of the line imo.

 

[gtmorgan23]

I wonder if the EXTs would pass at work as a sort of boot. Hmm I shall need some more on-feet pics.

Couple sizes still up on NDC from older colorways
