OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

I'm still smh at the employee in Puente Hills who told me these were "quick strikes" and therefore I couldn't use the birthday coupon or $10 VIP rewards card

my local footlocker is the worst on things like this and they wouldve given it to me no problem if they had my size... try champs if you have one near you.

Thanks for the Champs suggestion, I never realized the coupons are the same (I know they're under the same parent company).

I just went to another foot locker where a manager approved me using both coupons. The worker was just extremely misinformed. More than not letting me use it what bugged me most was his stance that they were quick strikes
 
Hey guys, are the Kobe VIII Christmas "Lights" going to be sold online at Footlocker.com etc..?  If so do I have a reasonable chance of getting a pair or is this like the Jordan Breds where I can expect the website to crash?

theyre gonna be on nike.com. in store only for footlocker, champs and footaction. if you dont live in socal you might have a hard time getting them. even then, the socal footlockers mostly already have reservations going on that are probably filled already. i checked the launch locator and only 2 footactions in socal and 2 in norcal are gonna have them. theres more locations for footlocker though.
 
THIS. Glad there are still NTers willing to help others out. Thanks again BigPoint.
Gonna have to resist on copping the Sulfurs today since everything, including the Christmas Lights are right around the corner. So much fire this holiday season.
S/O to BIGPOINT for the Kobe 8 Elite socks. Good lookin' out!
No problem fellas. Glad I could help some of my SoCal family out!

I wore my pair for my 17 hour flight. Didn't even bother me one bit. Even with the in air feet swelling. Was turning heads and answering questions in Japan. Love these! Hope I can score the Xmas next week.

Glad you all like them as much as I do. Like I said before, it's late but it's one of the better releases in the year 2012

call me crazy but i think the sulfers are gonna sell out faster than most other del sol colored kobes that have released in the past.

they've just got a special look to em. almost look like the type of shoe thats supposed to be limited.

i normally hold out for a sale for GR kobes but im gonna keep a close eye on these. i may be wrong but something tells me they wont be around for long...

Unless they are limited I doubt they sell out. I bought last two models of Kobe's for way below retail just waiting it out. Sneaker heads like us on this site will bite, but I don't think every CW is gonna fly off shelves, including the sulphurs
 
sulfurs WILL hit outlets. Just gotta be patient. The key is to try and work it so you get em now for less than retail so you dont have to wait ;)
 
I can't get the sulfurs at all. Sold out at the only footlocker within an hour of me. I hope if I'm able to get the X-Mas they fit TTS. The 7s were really tight on my feet at a 13, but the 6s fitted fine. Are these better in terms of fit?

Reading is fundamental brotha! Yes! TTS. The 7 fit way more snug due to the bootie.
 
Sounds good man. Now I'll just need some help getting to secure a 13 8o Don't know if that launch locator at FTL is accurate, all the stores I've called here in South FL say they're only getting the Brons or KDs, they could just be lying though. Dadeland usually has all of them but don't know if I'll be able to get down there in time.
