The Official Nike Kobe Retro Thread

These fit the sail/sail description. Not feeling these either. That white boa constrictor snake skin is boo boo

I feel like neither of these are part of the FTB collection. Specially with those 4s being all tonal grey. The FTB 1 will be an all off white shoe. These are probably just retros of the 1 that are lined up to release IMO.

The black ones aren't part the 4's are though.

Each shoes gets darker.

2k4 will be white and when the XI drops it will All black.
 
4s look nice, nothing to go crazy over. Probably be hard to fully appreciate this pack if you don't cop all the kicks that's part of it.

Yeah thats what I meant. I phrased it weird. The two pairs of AZK1s that have leaked probably aren't part of the FTB pack. The grey 4 totally fits the description of a FTB shoe. So any 1 that isn't tonal and all off white (like the snakeskin/gum pairs) is probably completely different. I hope the FTB 1s aren't suede like the 4s are. Off white suede would get dirty and ugly QUICK
 
I've never owned a pair of 4's so I gotta be in for that.
 
None of my IVs have any issues. Even a pair I hooped in a bunch is still good last I checked.
 
Kobe IVs wont ever crumble, they dont use any Polyurethane

They could have some sole separation however, it happened to my "inlines" that I hooped in after not wearing them for a year or two

I'm just ready to see pictures of the 8-11's so I can make a decision if I want any of them or not!!
 
2wks away and no pic of the 2s

That forefoot sidewall on the IVs is a ticking time bomb for sole separation. Would be nice to get wearable pairs of both the IVs and Vs, none of my old ones survived
 
Any word on the Kobe FTB?

We are getting near the release date and I have not heard much on the shoe sites and twitter.

Yeah that was the weakest thing about the IVs. They're dope though with the color blocking possibilities. Hope they make a comeback on iD.

The grey suede? will show any excess glue so that's another reason to pass on those.
 
Looks like they just greyed out the MLPS on those IVs. I thought their would be more thought into the idea :{

Well nothing official yet, but dang
 
I really hope this gets official soon. I'm really getting amped for this pack, as I'd love to get my hands on some of his old shoes.
 
Anyone know what's going on with the FTB pack? It has been way to quiet and I thought they are releasing all 11 pairs up until his last game which is coming up fast.

-Thanks
