THE OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE FOOTWEAR THREAD: RIP LEGEND 1978-2020. MAMBA FOREVER | 3 Releases 4/13

What color would you prefer the red logo and stiches be?

It’s hard to say. I think white would fit the best because I feel as If purple would be too much because it would be right next to the Sole that’s purple so it would overload it. Yellow would blend too much.

Or white with purple outline like the swoosh

[GrizzlyAnimal]

I'm sticking with my true size


another rendering while we wait

 

[gwizzle]

Straight fire

 

[buc em]

Damn these are gonna be the 8's all over again for me

Yup that’s my best comparison for them

 

[GrizzlyAnimal]

I'm anxious to see what cw's they come up with

 

[drisk34]

Yeah, im really liking my pair, I wonder what we’ll get.

 

[therefill]

Damn, that regret is setting in for not copping the black pair because I saw that a purple and gold colorway was dropping.

 

[Blue Mamba]

Took a stab at improving these

 

[GrizzlyAnimal]

Img not working

 

[goat4521]

So has anyone that has been wearing them casually have any issues with the soles?

 

[therefill]

Took a stab at improving these

Yeah, the old Lakers gold would have looked a lot better for sure. I still would go with the white swoosh and purple outline though to match the numbers of the jersey.

But Nike changed the Lakers gold to a brighter yellow for the jerseys so I guess the shoe had to match it. I ain't gonna complain though since it still looks good to me.

 

[bigevan23]

These are a problem and I’m not even a laker cw guy. If they do a Bruce Lee... Oh man.

 

[datsevil2]

I am sold on the performance on these 360. Definitely copping more!

 

[spoonmanofthehour]

Man, I can't help it but for me the light purple kills it for me. I have to pass.

Sucks, that's the only thing I don't like about them.

I thought these were the Lakers “colors” everyone was peeing their pants over the other day and I was crazy for suggesting otherwise

It’s all good though, and all in good fun. But the longer you look at these things, and the more you consider this apparent Nike-driven Lakers color debacle (not just the shoes), well ... yeah, WTF.

 

[wtfarabbit]

Definitely comfy when worn casually. Went down a full size for hooping purposes, your mileage may vary.

 

[wtfarabbit]

So has anyone that has been wearing them casually have any issues with the soles?

What kinda problems?

 

[goat4521]

What kinda problems?

Like the little nubs breaking off or wearing down quickly.

 

[bmwich123]

i think main problem is durability of outsole

 

[mindmarathon]

Sooo fire . yellow n purp is the new bred

I can't wait to cop and pop in the purple laces to go with some purple socks. aye fire damn that $200 I mean I can pay it, I got it but damn ya feel me lol

Most humans will look a that yellow & purple shoe and say it's "Lakers" colors. Doesn't matter the hue nor the shade, it's a "Lakers" colored shoe.

 

[CosmicGhostRider]

For everyone that's hooped in their pair, how do you like the React/Lunar midsole? Has anyone tried putting a full zoom insole inside?
