All 5 colorways not news
My fault. I thought the specific dates (or the sc's or some portion) were news post "we're going to relaunch" announcement. If all that is known, just report my post(s) as reposts, I do that all the time if I mistakenly post known info so I have no problem with you doing it.

Does anyone know if Nike has plans to re-release any of the apparel from the Kobe line? Hopefully this ain’t a sneakers only revival…

I can only hope and pray that they "stop the presses" on enough other models to use those factories to churn these out in Jordan 13 "Playoffs" numbers. I know they won't. I know they want to keep just having the name 'Kobe' on a shoe means it sells out instantly and goes for 5x its retail price on the secondary markets and at this point it might even make the fakes/reps sell out, but a guy can dream.
It's going to be a mess come Christmas time. Hitting those on SNKRS might feel like winning a small lottery prize. The crappy part is, lets say I do get them on SNKRS. I ball in my shoes. But unless you're playing in college or the g league or the pros (NBA/Overseas), there's no way you can bust those out for a game. $1700 shoes (at my size) in a pickup game? And then even if you, after the game is over you gotta keep one hand on the blicky
It's a conundrum. I don't want to get these just to DS them or to just sell them or show them off. Gonna be that situation where the dog goes and gets a huge stick...now what you gonna do with it lol

How do the Kobe 8 compare to the 5 and 6 performance wise?

Bought these for $79 3 weeks after release when everyone still hated Kobe. The only problem was they weren't in the store (in Nashville) so I couldn't try them on & didn't realize they ran big so I didn't they much run. They still turned heads though.Have you guys ever seen this in the wild?

The Lunarlon was triggedy trash but everything else was great. You could play in them & with the type of EM they were made with you could still wear them casually.

I never seen these hit the east coast, I had to get them shipped from San Diego. The 3 times I wore them, I received a lot of compliments. Eventually stop wearing them because Im not into the patent leather toe look.

I ordered mine from FL. 2006-2007 Kobes weren't selling in TN. If a store had Kobes the price dropped instantly.
