OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

[cnami1]

From what I saw at the Lakers games I attended this season, they are definitely a very dark purple. Not quite in the blue hue, but everyone's computer monitor resolution might be different which could make the Fades appear slightly blue.

 

[WAKKO!]

When do you guys think the kobes will go to the outlets?

I was excited as hell for the Purple Fades before the release date was even official...

But I started playing around with the new ID options a few days ago, and I'm completely over the Gradients.

I'm doing two ID's and then I'm done with the VIII entirely (Unless I come across some sort of BHM restock or for under $300)

There just weren't enough c/w that spoke to me personally.

Nike tweeted the info out "Purple Platinum"

I like the purple fade name more haha

 

[sk33termcg33]

just wonderin, do the superhero8 fit the same as the regular 8 ?

a little narrow at first, then the insert breaks in and feels great. don't let the initial narrow-ness steer away, I promise it gets way more comfy lol.

Purple Platinum??? Lol, I like Purple Fades better. Nike should've just ran with that nickname.

They always come up with head scratchers like the "culturals" and the "re-entry" for the Bron Xs... what the f is a "cultural" colorway lol?! "Purple platinum" can at least kinda fit, but fade's is what all of the sneaker community will know them as, which is what matters

Good looking out BrownMamba. One can never be too sure so I'd rather reserve a pair if possible.

 

[the hater boxden]

Should have renamed the "fades" to the "Blakes".

no thanks

 

[Kobekobe]

why the hell does it matter what they're named? you're gonna buy them anyways
