busted out the cloaks for the first time today, on a beautiful sunny day here in Santa Monica. You cant truly appreciate them until you wear them outside. Amazing how many people at footlocker or NikeTown didnt know what they were.

My feet feel shockingly good today. Didnt think they would the first wear.

I was at the store on release date for Sharks,
Glad i did can't find them now.
Sharks are very very hot colorway.

I want wolfs but they are sitting eveywhere so i can wait for discount. and if they so happen to be gone by time they hit major discounts then on to the 8 save my money for them

Cant find sharks?

There still on ndc fsr except for giant feet, and prob still in most stores.  ++@+, the black/grey are $84 and still fsr.

I don't live in America, and won't be back til about Dec.

Needed the sharks for the spring and summer. couldn't wait til I got home! plus 8s will be out by then

Hopefully with the ZK VIII next year, Avar + Nike release some better colorways. Look at the LeBron 9 and the KD IV. Design and performance wise, it can't even touch the ZK VII. What sold these shoes were COLORWAYS. This is what Eric Avar needs to realize with the Kobe Line going forward. People nowadays are being shoes based on 2 factors: limited availability + crazy/bright color schemes. It's about time the Kobe line got with the "program."

The Kobe VII played it way too safe (with the exception of the Cloaks and the ASG Galaxy) with the released colorways this year. Very plain and boring = lackluster sales & outlet racks.
          right on point man.

I agree with this 100%, only color way that drew interest from me was the cloaks and the yotd (didn't even release the yotd in the U.S. that I know of). Got the cloak though. Kobe 6 was better imo.
nah, the Kobe line started this trend with the weird colorways. So I don't know about that. It's just that the LeBron and KD line GOT WITH THE PROGRAM this year and
the Kobe kept it as is and decreased the number of colorways even because of the Supreme, Regular and Elite releases.

Expect the zk8 to go all out.

$$*# that.  I dont wanna see kobes in loud colors to please the beasts.  Keep that to lebrons and kds.  Just give us the good themed colors like they did with the V and VI.

Has Eric Avar or anyone else from Nike stated that the direction will be different with the ZKVIII? Because I find that hard to believe. From a marketing and a creative standpoint, it really looks like Nike is pushing the LeBron line and the KD line while the Zoom Kobe's have taken a major backseat. Really disappointing considering how well the ZK 4s, 5s (and to some extent) the 6s sold....and like you mentioned, STARTED the tend of unique colorways. With the VIIs this year, they have taken a major step backwards and abandoned their successful "game plan" from the previous 3 years.

I just don't understand WHY?
 
I'm torn between the away elites or the black history month. Both are $ 160.00? I can't figure out why this is such a hard decision for me.....
