i wonder if people would like the X curial better if Nike had taken the lateral swoosh off and replaced it with the word "NIKE" near the ankle like the 8.

I'm really glad they didn't. Something like this would have been dope...

Eh. It's all opinion and personal taste.
Mercurials are aight but IMO every colourway of the Elite's except the Rose Golds has been really underwhelming especially compared to the 9's. That being said those Christmas Elite Lows look promising. Hopefully a Christmas classic that Kobe will actually wear too. Go Lakers.
Long time Lurker, first time poster. Peace.
Yeah, Christmas for Nike.We gonna wait for these to hit discount before we cop right?
Somone will pay it. Next thing you know, the base price for an entry level pair of Kobe's is 225. Hey it's value right, because the next model up is $250color code is mad promising so I hope Nike flops on the color blocking cause $250 price tag is garbage

And even if they flop, Nike will find a way to turn it to their advantage. I miss the days when they had a little competition.
I was kinda of excited about this KB MC release but I think I'm gonna send my pair back and wait for 10/3 see what happens.
I think he means mambacurial not multi color
Waiting on those too!What was the release date for those purple elite lows? I need pics of those !

I agree completely. The fact that you can get most of the Xs for even cheaper than the Kobe IX right now is a trip. The line isn't even over and Footlocker has half of them basically on clearance.
Eh. It's all opinion and personal taste.
I think the X Highs are a better executed shoe than the IX highs - here I just mean consistency of materials across the whole build (full FK), I like the cushioning better, the tongue "works" better. That said, the FK weaves on the IX highs were more creative/varied, although I like the Rose Golds as much as any IX high except the MP, and I like the X Teams a lot as well.
On to the elite lows, we have 3 pairs so far, and if taken as a whole, I would take the asymmetrical X's over the pretty boring and monochromatic IX's. Yeah, this means I would lose my Beethoven's, but I think it gets made up for in the fact all three pairs of the X's are more interesting than the Thrillers or Moonwalkers, not to mention I think the Team High X is a better purple shoe than the Moonwalker.
Not saying things have been handled perfectly with the X, but overall I'm pretty happy with the FX versions. And, less releases this year has let me pick up some other stuff. YMMV.
