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

Hit on the Halos on the Draw. The Elite 9 low is my favorite design of the Kobe line but they were so limited. Pumped to finally have one

I guess you speaking on specific colorways cuz they def hit discount

 

[nikekid6]

LMFAO ME TOO.
Not even sure I wanted them but we will see in hand

Haha exactly that

My 3rd Kobe win on snkrs

 

[g-time]

My fav pair of Kobe’s. LFG!!!

The elites? I thought there were only a few CWS. The ones I really wanted were the b/w ones - the HTM and Beethovens. That was like 10 yrs ago though so I can't remember at all lol

L on eql and snkrs draw, but hit manually on sheikh

Busting these out today because I got the W! These were my go to ball pair for years. Hopefully they don’t fall apart on me today lol.

The blue skeleton 5s I think.

Ohhhh yea.... the start of the image pairs. The "Halloween" kicks

Stock seemed pretty good on these. Seeing a lot of Ws. Maybe the market is finally course correcting and hypebeasts and resellers are starting to avoid Kobe’s.

 

[Mr_Unbiased]

Yea more stores are going fcfs route.... skrm..... denim exchange(those 2 I've seen thus far).

Don't think these will be at Nike Stores. Didn't remember if the Halo highs released at FL... just checked and they didn't. But they got the lows. Slowly getting there.

Next release is holiday release right

X-ray 5s

I totally agree. I think resellers saw low profit margins and didn't want to take on the risk of it flopping/returning. But I also think Nike has been doing a solid job on increasing stock as was seen on the TB Kobe 8 pack

 

[Public Enemy]

Reselling and price gouging is hopefully dying. You love to see it

Can't go by the halos and team bank ones.

These are for the people who really want them or for hooping. Look at all the ones buying them and don't even know what a TB sneaker is.

They'll be back next month.

MAJOR difference in size between these 9s and my Kobe 5

Even the Girl Dads and Gold Medals fetched very little for resellers. VB 8s too. Small time resellers are barely breaking even or finding out it’s not worth their time to flip Kobe’s anymore cause of the slim margins.

There’s a lot I want to add to your comment about not knowing what TB means (like if you’re over ~30 and never copped an OG Kobe (1-12, ADs) but you copped some protros post Jan. 2020) but I’ll keep it to myself cause I don’t wanna come across as a gatekeeper.

You love to see it.

 

[g-time]

This is still dependent on size.

 

[Beeb2407]

BLs always get the compliments and head turners

[biggie62]

Congrats to all those that hit. All white isn’t my style for those that are hype for y’all!

I sure hope so! I'm just trying to hoop in all of my Kobe's, regardless of how limited they are.

This is still dependent on size.

That's real. I feel for all my fellow size 13 folk.
