June/July I believe.
You're not kidding. I wore my 9 Details the other day. The drop off in this signature line from the 9 to this AD is substantial to say the least. This line went from works of art to gravy boats.

Someone took a picture of them earlier in the thread. Apparently they are on sale now. Go to a footlocker and ask for a stock location and have them ship to your store.

Even Kobe 6's were $130 retail so no way was Nike going to price them lower than that.
The only colorway that I purchased so far was the Navy's.
I passed on Chrome's, didn't like that clear sole.

Unfortunately, yes, much more than the XI's.

These actually feel like the 6 to me. I have the black & white ones. Got them for Christmas. I'll gladly buy a pair, but not for $160.

According to page 1, there's another (5) more colorways yet to come plus a Oregon for $170.00
This is not even considering the Elites.

They feel a bit more stiffer than the 6's but mine are not broken in yet.
Did yours form fit to the shape of your foot over time like the 6's did?

Yea they did. I've played in them a few times & they feel better each time I play in them.

Sent the grey's back to NDC today, should have known my interest wouldn't last without Kobe on the court.

Thanks for responding, that's good news. Repped.
I'll probably pick up a few more colorways when all's said and done

Why'd you send them back?

Just had too much other stuff lately that I would have never gotten around to wearing them.

Nike lets you play in their products for 60 days and you can return them if you don't like it. Adidas lets you play on them for 30 days and return them if you don't like it. I'd say get both and decide which is a better fit for you.

With PG's sigs debuting soon, I can see why Nike has phoned in this line.

The hardens are heavier, and depending on the color the toe cap might be a little restrictive for you.
Most people I've heard from prefer the Hardens though so yea your best bet is to buy both and return whichever is your 2nd favorite.

This isn't even a Kobe model to me, I wish they would just keep releasing colors of the 11s

Not agreeing or disagreeing but what makes it less of a Kobe to you out of curiosity

The fact that he isn't playing in it, for one thing. I also don't like how it looks, and the color ways have been very uninspired so far.

Well fellas I have always liked the AD's and finally made the plunge. Sorry for the over exposure.
The only bad thing is won't be able to test them for a while. I ended up rupturing my patellar tendon last night and gotta get surgery tomorrow.
