OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

400
. Finally got it. Yiiiiiiii. Picked up for 250. Couldn't find anything lower than 315-325 for months. I'm gonna ball in these tomorrow
 
Ahh, how I loved this model, but nike OD'ed on it waiting for the 9s. I have lost all interest in the later models. I even wanted the mine greys and passed because I am just bored at this point...

I wouldn't even say they OD'd... I'd say it's more they Got MAD LAZY & didn't plan things out much further than the original Pit Vipers... hence why those were recycled the most.

I'm sure the IX's would've been on-court & in-stores by now, easily, if Kobe was healthy. His Injury really through a wrench in things and they BS'd their way through the last quarter of the 8's to stall the fans during the Fall/Winter after the IX's schedule was pushed back. Completely Unprepared. That's just my realistic theory, tho.
 
Could drop homes and amnesties to bring the hype back !!!! I gave up on those.

I was so psyched to do a solid ID and it looks like I will pass on that too. I have nearly every colorway, lunar is bottoming out and its BORING without Kobe on court. I used to be all over this thread, rarely come back now, and not feeling the 9's. Also, prelude pack is a gimmick too, to stall until the 9.

New colorways are a gimmick, new designs are gimmicks, gimmicks are how they get you to keep buying em.

Because Browsers have freakin Twitter bot plug-ins now. Game Over if it's TLO already.

Struck out INSTANTLY on WTK's, Bred 1's, Prelude V's, it's useless. It's a battle of the bots. If you use a bot, you cross your fingers and hope for the best it adds to cart. Like Russian Roulette. If you don't use a bot, you already lose.

XMAS and WTK are instant cop.They have actually only released a handful of cws in 6 months.Not to mention no one argues Kobe 8 is the best Kobe model so why wouldn't you want more choices at retail. Lebron xi has done 10 in how many?
 
With all this early link stuff floating around you think nike would do a better job on these limited releases.
 
Preludes are impossible to get.

Kobe 8s are one of the best Kobe models, but color ways were mediocre at best.

Think that is really what turned people away.

I know Lewi would be back in this thread so fast if they dropped the AMENesties.
