OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

[dark steel]

Nah I'm not talking about the phrasing. I'm just saying in general I haven't seen people really even talk about the red suedes, period.

Exactly.

Seems like the Red Camos have been favored around 10:1 over the Red Suedes.

Even the Black YOTS seem to be favored in the minority as well out of the YOTS Pack.

But I know my order of preference is: 1.Black YOTS, 2. Red Suede and 3. Red Camo.

And Grinches, and OCs, and dark knights, and..... Right?

How bout no. I like to see variety. We don't need the same colorway every model. Only colorways I want to see on every model is Lakers home & away, del sol (black/yellow) and inline (white/purple).

This!

Red Suedes over Red Camo.

Waiting for my pair to come in from KixSquare...

Red suedes will only sell out if limited. Colors don't work well, so in reality they should sit. Make em limited and beasts will come out. They're nice to me, limited or not I don't need em. I'd like a pair later tho.

Nice pic Rod! Can't wait for mine!

Dang. Great pic with an iPhone! Too many good CW's in too short a time. My wife's def gonna notice the high number of new shoes. I won't even be able to use the ole' "these aren't new, I've had these" lol.

Wish they had spaced these out more and released more at the end of 2012/beginning of 2013. Lots of people talking about January being a rough month on the wallet, maybe one day in March beats them all (3-9-13)..

Thanks man! I can relate to that 100%... I been telling the wife that I been trading shoes, but we'll see how long that goes... This shoe is a problem though... I like all the color ways so far...

 

[jretro23]

red camo's should be FCFS on release day right?

 

[Champagne_Taste]

Can anybody please recommend me some cleaning supplies for the upper and sole?

 

[geoff2005]

lol wow supernatural are reselling for 180 ish.. people must be dumb to be buying it. this is in socal to. im pretty sure there many stores with FSR left

 

[loskickking23]

I know ima kick myself in the *** later for not getting the blue pair

 

[s dubl]

180 shipped is good. 160 retail+9% tax is almost 180 right there. Unless you live across the street from the mall, you have to spend gas.

Doesn't matter how they look on JR, what matters is how they gon be on you cuh. 

 

[s dubl]

Blues are nice in person... If you can scoop for less than retail now, don't regret it passing.
