mr fox24 first and foremost congratulations man. I know the feeling of being a father. Secondly are the 9 lows lighter then the Kobe 8 from experience and lol yea I wear a size 10 also.

Thank you appreciate!. Honestly I didn't really notice a real difference in weight, maybe once I try on both... But I like the fit more and lock down from 9s.

 

[geeplus]

aesthetics on the Lows just don't do it. Looks like they went backwards in Technology.

Sorry I'm late on this one.  You've held the 9 lows in your hands!?  To me that heel looks like its high enough to rub on your achilles tendon causing some pain/blisters

 

[mr fox24]

Yea I did, I took the pics & only tried on did not play... They aren't higher than 8s really and is much more padded in heel. I get back to work tomorrow I can take more pics next to the 8s.

What city/state are u in?

Haven't even checked my local spots.  I think there's a chance they might be around, but I don't want to go check because if they're available, I will end up purchasing 

 

South Jersey. Size selection is very  limited to big (14) and small (8.5).

Youth sizes appear to be GR for Perspective. They're sitting on the wall and very much in stock on all websites as far as I've seen. But you could make the case that the Youth shoe isn't a 'real' Kobe IX.

That would be awesome!! Any word on any more colorways of the lows that are coming out?  I really can't wait to get a pair of the lows, anything after Bruce Lee's are good with me really, can't wait for some more release dates

 

[navster]

The lows dropping on the 29 look too plain. Maybe if they had some more detail in them...  On the fence. Could cop just to test out the lows performance wise though, but I prefer dark shoes to ball in bc these will have visible scuffs after one game for sure.

 

[ultimatecam]

mr fox24 thank man I appreciate it. Just let me us or me know if they're lighter then the 8 or the same

 

[ultimatecam]

mr fox24 oh yea once again congrats man that's a beautiful thing

 

[mastralf]

I just feel that nike is trying to make it so we buy the 225 shoe. I mean in the previous 2 years there have only been 2 elite colorways. Now there are at least 6 and it seems as if they have us convinced the lows are gonna be terrible and that they themselves are a takedown model. I don't think they look as great as the 8's but lets wait for other cws and also wait for us to get them and see how well they perform before we decide they are trash. I am not gonna get any of the pictured 4 low cws, but u never know when that certain cw will drop that we all will want.

Congrats on the kid.....

 

[mr fox24]

Im actually on my way to mall I work, I can probably swing by store and snap a few pics.

Just put the Inspirations on foot finally. I didn't realize how well the green, yellow, and orange would blend together to make a clean gold color. Well done Nike, well done.
