OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

[bigj505]

Hoping to find someone to trade a pair of Xmas for my extra pair of asgs

at that point, why not just use the money you paid for the asg to pay for a pair of xmas?

no disrespect meant at all by the statement. im just thinking mathematically... 190 after tax + shipping to the trader (10) = 200 or 205+ tax if purchased outside of nike.com + 10 shipping = 215. xmas seem to sell for about 250 so thats only $35 more. is it worth the hassle?

Agree totally, but I didn't buy a second pair of asgs just to trade. I was hedging my bets because their was some uncertainty with the first pair I ordered off Champs. Didn't want to pass on a guaranteed pair and the first one not come through.

^^^ gotcha

anyone know when those tie dye lookin  kobe  8's drop

 

[chronicsneaker]

Sulfurs and Pythons were the only non-limited release so far. And are both still widely available to purchase from retailers. Xmas, BHM, ASG's were all limited.

Awful that I'm gonna have to pay hypebeast prices for ASGs. Gonna really hurt my wallet.....

you guys should know better. their under nike's payroll.

I've backed off the red camos a lot since the initial release announcement. They're still a nice colorway, but I've got a lot of other red shoes and am trying to be more selective about these VIIIs. Already pretty happy with the Xmas and black mamba YOTS that I have, though I'm debating on a trade for the ASGs. Those really grew on me after seeing them in person.

 

[zero23]

Is $230 a good price for the Kobe Xmas? Trying to get them lower than that, but haven't been able to find a pair below in my size. Wanted somewhere closer to $200...

Jump on them I just payed $250 smh... but I couldn't find nothing less in a 9.5

It's just tough to think I paid $80 over retail for a Kobe. Then again, it's only a $30 difference from what I wanted to pay. I knew I shoulda bought them for retail at the store when I had the chance.

Don't be a *****.

 

[drewsone]

one of each!

Definitely one of each. I love both of mine.. Been huntin' hard for another 9.5 for my brother-in-law though. Sucks to see most of them are like upwards of $250.

On another note.. are the atomic teals only gonna release as a kobe+ model? Because I like them but not for $180 lol.

point me in the direction of a sulphur sz 12 from a retailer and I'll buy it right now asap.

Havent seen a sz 12 on any site, Eastbay, FTL, FA, JJ,Champs, etc..

 

[tdogg2k]

My local mall has FL and FA thats it

FA cant stock locate through FTL can they, or can they? I mean they have the same inventory..

Or better yet, do they do phone orders?

Matter fact, what is the name of the mall or area and I'll do the rest, so I can say I put in my own work to get them

Thnx for the info about that btw.

 

[thejeffemond]

Can anyone tell me if the kobe viii have any bothering areas? I'm thinking of buying em strictly for ball and the last ones I had the side of my pinky toe would hurt unless I was wearing 2 layer elites. I haven't heard any complaints but you guys know better than me
