Official Kobae XI thread

I like the black uppers the most, I feel like the white upper reminds me of this paramore album cover

That's what you get when you let the L win, whoAAaAaoWhoaaaaAAaho

I've ordered tons of stuff off of Nike EU and had it shipped to my address in the UK, then forwarded to the USA. And I didn't get the code emailed to me? Was the selection process completely random?

I've struck out on every single one of these Kobe releases through SNKRS. I think I need to move to NYC or LA or something haha!

SNKS is 4-5PM PST.

Looks like they made the Mamba Day iD the 5th Lesson on the Kobe NDC page

I would argue about them making things more limited in the US compared to EU. If anything we get more. We just have a much much MUCH greater demand in the US than Europe.

Think I'll skip the mamba day ids and cop the Last Emperor on footlocker with the 20% off deal. Most likely the last colorway I'll cop for the XI unless they release something that blows me away

So I had an absolutely terrible start to Mamba Day. I called every store in NYC yesterday to see if any would have the FTB XI physically in stock. Every place was doing lottery/raffle. But House of Hoops in Brooklyn was, according to a woman I spoke with on the phone, NOT doing a raffle. She tells me I should get there around 7:30 AM since the store opens at 8 AM and it's first come first serve. I've never camped for a shoe before, but this is the all-time holy grail for me. So I live in Harlem, and leave at 2 AM to arrive at 3 AM. No one is there. I sleep on the floor until 7:30 AM in the freezing cold. No one else is around. Red flags start to arise. 8 AM rolls around. No one is there. The store is not open. I sit around for another hour. 9 AM rolls by and a store associate comes by. I tell him I'm in line for the FTB XI and he says they did a raffle yesterday and they're all sold out already. Also said that the stores don't open until 10 AM. Perhaps I'm an idiot for believing this woman who I spoke with at House of Hoops. But I did call back three times yesterday to ensure the information was consistent - perhaps it was her who answered the phone each time, providing me with this wrong info. Anyways, sorry for the rant. I'm venting while waiting for my train back to Harlem. To the woman who gave me this information, either erroneously or out of malice -- I hope you know you ruined this day for me.

Find ol' girl and put her in a headlock #coldblooded

Finish Line is probably thinking, damn if only we sold Kobe's we wouldn't have to keep closing stores.

sounds like we may have to take Ls on the mamba day IDs if they are just gonna sell out in like 10 seconds :/

Could be a fake sellout though for right now, back when the 10 iDs dropped and they "sold out" of the asymmetrical option right away, but then it was back on there shortly afterwards. They'll get hit pretty hard right away I'm sure.

hopefully. it's been rough enough getting any of these shoes as it is. btw, is footlocker's website down for anyone else?

Someone said in the iD thread that they're back up overseas, we should be good

 

[superstarlord]

According to this most of the Nike NBA players are going to be wearing the FTB 11s tonight, I'd assume Kobe will have something else
