The Elites are better looking but I bet the EM will be better performing. Hoping these turn out to be Kobe 8s 2.0

Just heard it too, he went off for 18 pts in 3rd quarter after putting on the ASG XIAnybody else hear that Isaiah Thomas shout out to the all star xi's?
I will say that it is true that it is a water downed version but probably not as much as we would think. Nike is really good at making their top of line products seem more superior than others when in reality its not far off. Are the elites better, yes.It‘s not just about Kobe though. It‘s more about capturing different consumers. Kind of like turbo and non turbo. By creating a tier, it further preserves the "elite", or "signature" line.
The EM also gives consumers who don‘t wanna pay $200 msrp for somethng similar. Kinda like a watered down version.
I am more curious about the EMs and the sole, because I am all for performance and feel. Not saying the "elite" aren‘t good, but it‘s just marketing.
Nike got smarter by mixing in the CWa with the EMs. Bad for guys like.us who want those Lakers CW. Oh well...
Okay that makes sense! Thank you, so performance wise are the elites and EMs typically pretty comparable then? Or do the elites blow them out of the water? I own about 15 pairs of kobe's, but honestly as a big kobe an, and not really an athletic person, I just get them for fashion lol .
thats either an april's fool joke or the next take on HTM
nike is prob gonna do 3 separate kobe xi...
kobe x hiroshi
kobe x tinker
kobe x mark
Repped! I only bought the BL but really want those Achilles and Eulogies in my collection.View media item 1976428
XI collection, feel so lucky to have them
If it is legit I will most likely cop. Man these 11's are a problem lol. I saw Isaiah Thomas warm up in the easters the other day...they are really nice. I could end up with more 11's than 9's!Posted on a fb group tho.....
