THE OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE FOOTWEAR THREAD: RIP LEGEND 1978-2020. MAMBA FOREVER | 8-24-24

I like the college PEs of the OG 8s from 2012 better than what they're doing for the Protros. The new ones look like glorified TBs whereas the graphics on the OG Duke PEs have a lot more personality.

I'd do some crazy things for one of those color ways.
 
So halo 8s only had the special stitched eyelets, stitched swoosh, and shozoku pattern on the side and heel? Thought those would be on all protro 8s.
 
So every 81 point day I break these out to take a look back.

These are the original 81 point drop that happened a year after the 81 point game. Nike held a scavenger hunt through the city and the first 81 people to complete it were allowed to purchase the shoes.

Fast forward next year Kobe had an event for the release of the Kobe 2's, I brought these to the event and he put his initials on these and the Kobe 2's.

Biggest difference between these and the retail pair is the 81 point branding on the shoe and the book.
