I found the Kobe 9 Perspectives in more stores in Tampa than any Jordan XX8 release. Normally, it would University Mall Foot Action and Champs. Bamboos were in one store and went quick online.
If their intention was to make these as found in the wild as a Yetti or Big Foot than they were successful.

Green Camos at my outlet for $100 after discounts. So damn tempting. I basically want these for casual use. Anybody got pics with these with pants/jeans?

Just copped green camos and aj 1 all white for $130 after 20% store discount, additional 20% off coupon for taking a nike outlet survey, and a $20 coupon for orders over $100. Today was a good day (in my Ice Cube voice)

Man. Honestly, I think they may have made 5,000 or less of those. I think bamboos are in the same number. You rarely see pairs out on ebay or other forums. In another yr, I am sure bamboos will be dried up

Took me over 6 months to find a pair in my size that was DS and for under $300. They're really drying up fast.

I want bamboos. Sigh. Might have to drop an extra.

Wish they didn't put that bamboo crap on the back and I would t returned my pair. Just couldn't get over it... That white upper would have looked nice with the CF

Still hunting for a pair to wear for ball. Haven't had any luck at outlets for size 9 or 9.5. Should I be concerned about outlet pairs, considering they're B-Grades? Does that make them liable for the zoom bags to pop or anything? I'm assuming it's still covered by Nike nonetheless.
Also, does anyone have any idea if these have a little more give in the toebox than the Super.Fly 2? That's what I've been playing in, and what really got me hyped on the unlocked zoom. A size 9 was a bit too snug in the toes for me, doable, but the material just felt like it wouldn't break in at all so I went up to the 9.5

I can't speak for the Super.Fly 2 since I haven't tried it on, but comparing the regular XX8 to the SE, there is a noticeable difference in terms of how soft the upper is with the regular XX8 -- IMO. The toe box feels keeps you locked down, but is noticeably softer and more comfortable than other shoes I've worn -- and I went a half size down in these.

I'm a 9-9.5, closest I found was a size 8.5, I'm not sure if I should pull the trigger or not

I would disagree... I think they run long and even slightly wide

Snug for me too. Perfect fit with my true 12.5. Had to go up on a few releases where I couldn't find my size which isn't as great as tts but still ok. I can barely get the zipper up on tts so no way I could sz down
