I'm finally posting photos of the Del Sol IV that I've had since 2009. I feel they're still in decent shape, I just have to clean them a little.

Those are my favorite 4 by far. Especially after I was at the 61-point game at MSG where Kobe wore them. I waited too long to buy them and then they were gone from stores in my size. Shoulda just bought a pair from eBay or something. Had expected them to return as part of the Protro run, but nope. Now will probably never have them 🤦‍♂️
 
Haven't bought a new pair of Nike's in MONTHS, probably about 6/7. I bought older shoes that were new on GOAT and Stock X. But new releases. NOPE.

Same.. haven't bought anything nike related in the past 2 years. such a bummer... while the problem, to me, is mainly the lack of kobe shoes for sale.. nike is artificially limiting other performance shoes like the GT cut.

The Del Sol IV will always be associated with Kobe's then-record 61 point game at Madison Square Garden because they were quite visible on him in that game.

wear them boss before they SEPARATE the outsole

i missed my original KB4,5,6,7 and 8 BEST KB Line ever and the MAMBA himself RIP Kobe

It's funny you mention that because I wore them a lot in 2009 for sure, and I believe I wore them a little bit early last decade. But I haven't worn them since.

Cherish those gems.
If possible givem a full restoration run and youll be good to go. Only issue with Kobes ive had is zoom bags and clear coat that aside..
mmm correction some flaking of the decal like print on the 5s with the Lees and Big Stages but nothing horrible.
