OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

[heffe]

Forgot about the gold medals. Guess coz I had the regulars. But that release was part of a whole pack or no?

 

[dirknasty41]

Agree on the asg fitting bigger (sports pack version)

I agree as well. Size 11 in a normal pair fit perfectly, the ASG fits a little big. No complaints though.
Those away PE's are serious though...

the Sport pack insoles arent as thick as the lunarlon... once i unDS my ASG pair ima swap out the insoles for lunarlon ones

 

[heffe]

Lunar insoles going to be going at a premium once this shoe runs its course on colorways

 

[djyoung08]

Volt laces would be cool in the blue lights, I've always been a photo blue + volt kinda guy.

Sounds like it would work.

Anyone willing to post pics?

I think i'll put white laces on them regardless... the blue laces are just too much blue imo

 

[silvah]

Got the sulfurs and asg's so far
Easters def on my radar

 

[djyoung08]

Still contemplating on the easters...

Never been huge on gradients but I really like the colors

Guys if you take care of your 8s I'd go buy an ortho ready insert off iD. That way once your rotation of lunars are gone to **** you can invest in some dr. Schols or real orthotics and put those to use. Like someone said before, lunar inserts are gonna be at a premium and I plan on balling in these 8s for a very long time

I was excited about the Zoom orthotic ready insert til I saw it only has heel Zoom. Youre better off buying a Zoom sockliner from eBay

so is the insert in the ASG 8's orthotic ready since is has a heal zoom?

Or you can get the Nike+ ready insert from Nike ID for 60.

Not a bad idea... I plan on hooping in these for a while.  Gonna probably grab an extra set of lunar inserts as well.

Not sure how much I would like the zoom insert + orthotics.

Sk33ter do you have orthos yourself?

I'm not sure if it's orthotic ready.  Do you have the ASGs? If so, could you post a pic of the insert? 

The orthotic ready zoom insert is pretty thin

How do the ortho's feel in comparison to the lunar?

Softer? harder?

Very interested in copping

No the ASG pair isn't Orthotic ready, its too thick because it has to hold the + sensor

sucks uploading from mobile.. didn't mean to put the pics in the quote

 

[jst628]

just about captured the real colors (besides the sole), can't wait for this slush to clear up to unDS.

No prob thanks for posting.  That ASG insert isn't orthotic ready.  It looks like just heel zoom and foam cushioning in the forefoot.  Don't know if the forefoot foam is lunarlon tho -- I'm assuming no since it houses the Sport Ready system?? I'm sure someone else knows or has clarified already.

Anyway the orthotic ready zoom insert is on Nike iD, it's much thinner:

The manager at the HOH near me mentioned an HOH exclusive  colorway arriving in two to three weeks  thats listed as grey volt. Is that the colorway pictured on the 1st page scheduled for release on the 9th?

yes they are on other sites under release dates

 

[iks mod]

@jst628 nice pic. Still would like to see these in person

 

[la kb24]

just copped the blue lights...real pleased

A+ photo

still just can't see myself wearing those.

They have grown on me though.

 

[shoecollector75]

I think these look better than the year of the snake but dont know if they are an actual shoe that will be released
