Nice. Curious to know cost as well.
Finally came in!!
big time respect
I like what I like lol
Honestly not a fan of the design of the earlier models. They were more on the bball sneaker side and not causal. The later models were the perfect blend IMO
If I was a Kobe fan this would be the only reason I would get the FTB XIs
Finally came in!!
I don't give two ***** about how Kobes look for casual wear. I'll only ever wear them for basketball either way so all I care about is how they perform and look for that.
I'm glad I doubled on these. Just played ball in my pair and scuffed up one of the swoosh's.Never steppin foot on a court...
Solid outsoles perform better from what I hear. I haven't seen a reviewer have any luck with the clear outsole models like the bruce lees.
UNDSed the Bruce Lees for a hoop session tonight and the traction is not good on these. Played indoors. The soles on the Bruce Lees are dust magnets. I play in my Kobe 10s and never have to wipe once. Whereas the Kobe 11 BLs I had to wipe often just to get some hint of traction. I like to stop on a dime off the dribble or change directions while driving to the bucket, but having no traction makes that damn near impossible - so I just ended up taking spot up jumpers most of the night. And defense is also a ***** to play with no traction. These shoes feel good, but the performance is very disappointing.
Oh and the cherry on top, not even 20 minutes into the night some guy and his heavy foot stepped on my entire shoe and left some marks on the bright yellow flyknit!!How can I clean the shoe? Looks like I'm gonna have to restrict these to casual wear only so I wanna clean the marks he left on the flyknit
Yeah seems like it. But I'm not going to drop 2 bills just to test it for myself

Crep cureYeah seems like it. But I'm not going to drop 2 bills just to test it for myself Gonna have to put these in my casual wear rotation.
Anybody know how to clean the flyknit?! First night wearing them and they got stomped on >: Wouldn't mind if I was gonna keep these for hooping. But the performance just isn't where I need it to be to keep it in the hoop rotation.
Crep cure
I see a lot of people recommend Jason Markk cleaner. I gotta ask though, would using water and a toothbrush damage the flyknit on the Kobe 11 since it's not pure flyknit? Still kinda heated that they got stomped on during my first wear
Try cleaning them with Jason Markk.
Jason markk is better but it's also very harsh and can discolor. Meaning it will look like you cleaned it. The crew cure kit at Footlocker's and other shoe stores include a soft bore brush that won't harm flyknit.I see a lot of people recommend Jason Markk cleaner.

Yeah, I just wanna tread carefully since I've only worn it once - I don't wanna ruin it.Jason markk is better but it's also very harsh and can discolor. Meaning it will look like you cleaned it.

A mild tooth brush and water would work. Or try hot water and a micro fiber cloth
I used baby shampoo a soft tooth brush with water, have a cup with some water Make sure the brush is wet put a little dab of shampoo on brush and scrub in mini circles worked amazing for my white horses, i will try all free and clear when they get mad stained in court to see if it's better but baby shampoo is very delicateYeah, I just wanna tread carefully since I've only worn it once - I don't wanna ruin it.

agreed my Bl stick to clean and mildly dusty like glue, all my 11s do except the pair of emperors I sold idk whyI balled in my BLs on a clean court after wearing the shoe casually for more than 20 times. I did not clean the bottoms and traction was superb for me. I was able to cut and stop on a dime without slipping. It must be the court since its cleaned everyday with those polishing machines that look like a zamboni. Lucky me I guess.
My 4 year old daughter steps on my BL all the time and it leaves a dark brown impression on the flyknit. I use these baby wipes from Costco to wipe the flyknit clean. It may look like it's discolored at first because the flyknit appears a little darker once it's wet but as soon as it dries, it goes back to the original color. I've wiped it at least 5 times. On one occasion, she was stepping on my BLsView media item 2114105 on purpose because she thought it was funny. Lol.Yeah seems like it.

Hahaha. That's exactly what I wanted to do but I had to keep my composure and stay calm.
