Grinches are great to look at but they are terrible on anyone’s feet but Kobe’s on court.

Bare ankles..... naaahhh lolthese shoes need either no show shocks to look good on feet if wearing shorts and if half calf socks black and definetely not white . Plus because they are kinda sleek fat calves make em look weird

Shoe of the year 2020 for me and it’s not even close. I could care less about exclusivity most of the time. I absolutely love this shoe. Was never able to get the 2010 release because I was in college and broke haha.
Tried them on to see how sizing would be in case I had to size swap..
I went with my usual Kobe size- 9.5. For reference, I wear a 9.5 comfortably in Kobe 8 and Kobe 9 Elite lows. I also wear 9.5 in Vapormax, flyknit trainers, flyknit racers, AM90, Yeezy 350 V2, and AJ3.—basically anything that runs tight.
I wear 9 comfortably in Kobe 9 elite highs, AJ11, GR AF1 lows, dunk hi’s, FOG1, AJ5, AJ6, and blazers.
A 9 in AJ1 will fit tight at the top of my foot near the toebox, and a 9.5 will have room at the toe. Same with AJ4– snug in a 9, but 9.5 is a little more loose but wearable.
I wear an 8.5 comfortably in timberland boots and chucks.
Tried to give a variety of shoes for reference there. Anyway, these grinches fit VERY snug at the toe (and this is technically my 0.5 size up that I got—I also threw on thicker Nike NBA socks). But it’s tight like at the top of the toe. Feels like snug padding. It’s not that my toe is jammed at the end of the toebox because I’d say I have about an index fingers width of room at the toe technically. I wouldn’t say it’s uncomfortably snug either, but it’s snug and there’s no give because of the material of the shoe. That being said, the rest of the shoe fits perfectly and I’m not sure if going up another half size to a 10 would remedy the snugness of the toebox, but rather would just make the shoe clumsily long on my feet. I’m not a 10 in any shoe at all. Maybe I’ll grab a 10 from GOAT to see and just return them if they’re too long and just eat return shipping price. .
Here’s a few quick shots of the Grinches alongside some of my other favorite Kobes. Grinch is a size 9.5. Mambacurial 8 is also a 9.5, and Masterpiece 9s are size 9. The masterpiece 9s had been my all time favorite kobe shoe that I at least owned, and now I think I prefer the grinches most. There’s just something about them I love.
Mostly likely All stars.So nobody knows what actual release is next? I’ve been checking stockx for early pairs and nothing .

Nike has a vendetta with white/purple Kobes apprentlyNo concords what’s up with that
Lakers store is annoying cuz they mark up the prices of their stuff
Would think it would be towards the middle or back end of 2021.Hopefully they listen to Kobe's wife and we see more numbers this year.

Assuming most of the stuff until like May is already in production or done
