The Official Nike Kobe Retro Thread

[buckeye84]

So details about the drop, got there relatively late around 930, Ithere were people that had wristbands but I was one of the first ones without one. Opened at 10, line moved at a steady pace they were letting about 10ppl in at a time. Took about 40 minutes for me to get inside, I want to say I was around no. 60 in line, had to try them on cause I remembered the 1s ran big. Pretty seamless process honestly, there we're a few people that bought sizes in hopes of a size swap but luckily there weren't too many big footers in line. All in all four a little over an hour, completely satisfied obviously. Hopefully the rest of the releases are similar.

As for the shoes themselves, really nice. They remind me of the only pair of 1s I got, the MPLS. Wish I could have helped you guys out. In for the 3s and XIs as well, maybe 6s.

Nice pickup, pics look wayyyy better than the stock NDC ones.  Did you go TTS or have to size down?

Need them even more after comparing them to MPLS. I have 2 pairs of those, one worn heavily in high school for basketball and one deadstock

Will be one of those ftb on nike eu online?

 

[salacious crumb]

Welp; kobebryant.com Huarache order cancelled.... this pack is going to be impossible to get online.

Mine (and most) only hope. Online only.

Will try for the 1s. Even I get through. Not happy will I get a shipping email, since lots of cancellations.

 

[bohnthugs]

Looks like HoH did all raffles in Chicago now for 1-4 Monday & Tuesday ... pissed I missed it ... anyone have any luck in chicago? I'll call to see when remaining models will be raffled off. 

 

[Deleted member 43946]

Got my 20% code for cancellation of the 2k4s...hopefully we hit on the 1s today.

TTS.

 

[itsaNYthing]

I'm SICK. That other site cancelled my 2K4s

 

[nikeairon]

Crazy how these are selling out.

 

[buc em]

Alright I NEED to get the 6's and 8's in this Fade to Black pack. Are these going to be released in HOH's only or what? I need to know when those two pairs release and where to get them so I can take off work those days.

I want to see someone get the whole set. It's going to be crazy hard.

That limited + Kobe + Kobe's last season...

Some reseller will and will ask 30k for it on eBay.

Honestly if I had the funds I maybe would attempt it but 2800 on some kicks seems silly.

 

[201steez]

I would be happy with only 1 pair but the only pairs I'm feeling are the 1s 5s and 9s. I'm more of a fan of the model than the actual colors tho.

Kobe only (hopefully) retires once bruh take the plunge. You can always return them if you don't like them or help out the brethren or {) resell them and make a hefty profit.

I honestly want every pair, well, except the VIIs. I hope I'm lucky enough to get at least one out of the 1s, IVs, IVs, Vs, VIIIs, IXs, Xs, or XIs.

After completing the Prelude Pack. I feel less inclined to complete this pack. The Prelude Pack would've been a good farewell pack for Kobe.

I'm only interested in 5, 8, and 11. And like the other member, I'm more a fan of the model than I am of the colorway

 

[dareal08]

i think it would of been better if they just brought back the prelude pack with an addition of the 9,10,11

 

[vinotwofour]

I stopped playing ball a little while ago so i haven't picked up any kobes in a long time. But I was really intrigued with how the 11's look, and this 11 from the pack is what I want the most. 

 

[dareal08]

i rather just ID a pair of 11s like eastbay did them

 

[crz777]

I guess I'ma try for them obviously huge odds
If not we'll all still have 200$ lol

 

[davidevan]

any tips on using the SNKRS app or is it all luck?

These 11s though have small details that make them a bit more special than just the pair you can ID

They reinforce the no camp out rule at the Grove? So you get there early you have a shot? Man I'd take some days off and drive down for the 3-6 lol
