OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

has a price been annouced yet?
regular version
plus version
elite/playoff version

Regular version 150

plus version 190

elite 210

From what I heard, numbers may be off a little bit.

Im glad nike didnt wait to Xmas to release info on these shoes, not my cup of tea but I am interested to see how they feel and perform.

I honestly think the regular version should not be $150.

$150 KOBE 8 = $110 Lunarglide 4 - BRS 1000


The Nike LunarGlide+ 4 running shoe provides lightweight support for the mild- to moderate overpronator. Evolved Flywire technology hugs the entire length of foot with customizable, lightweight support. Heel clip engages upon footstrike to provide a snug fit and support. Lunarlon system with "bottomless" carrier construction adds cushioning. Dynamic Support platform offers stability. Premium three-layer sockliner delivers comfort/support. Natural-motion engineered flex grooves promote an efficient stride. BRS 1000[emoji]8482[/emoji] at the heel, environmentally preferred rubber everywhere else. Requires purchasing the Nike iPod Sport Kit (#0001101) in order to make this shoe Nike+ ready. Wt. 9.7 oz

So yellow lid huh? :rolleyes

Kinda has that livestrong vibe in it
You plan on wearing the box on court? :rolleyes

The cobra ones, aren't too bad - But they're overall underwhelming...I'll see how my friend likes them for hoop; I'll pull the trigger if they're good.

So the answer to the 2 random lines in the back of the shoe has been answered! :hat :hat So far this shoe is looking promising. Kinda mad they still kept with the stupid system.

Oh well at the end of the day it is all about Kobe and what he wants and what his team believes will suit him and who knows maybe these will be different. 
 
Okay guys we get it about the two stripes its been mentioned countless times already ahaha. I think its kinda disproportionate but clever.

NIKEiD will offer various performance and style customization options for the KOBE 8 SYSTEM shoe, enabling consumers to create their own player edition. Consumers can choose from four midsole options: Lunarlon cushioning for a soft yet responsive ride, or an orthotic-ready Nike Zoom insert which is super-thin and sits lower to the ground than traditional midsole inserts. And for players who want to track and measure their game with Nike+ Basketball, there are two additional midsole options: the KOBE+ 8 SYSTEM SP+ (which comes bundled with the Nike+ Sport Kit) or the KOBE 8 SYSTEM EN+ midsole for players who previously purchased the Nike+ Sport Kit (sold separately).
 
not looking forward to the sports pack as with the higher price will have better options. i want to be able to make a pair to my liking but not spend a lot to do so. $200 for the cheapest?
 
so sleeve only on Nike iD?? I hope not

certainly is confusing... that nikeid paragraph is saying there's going to be an enabled nike+ version similar to the lebron x 200 dollar version. so will there be release pairs with the kobe 8 system enabled too? does sleeve for the kobe 8 = enabled version.. like the jeweled swoosh for the lebron x = enabled version? dunno.

so maybe only the Nike+ versions will have sleeves? kinda sucks. I can care less about the nike + gimmick
 
Wow. Now every single one is on board? Dammit. It's just funny watching you people get swayed so easily. Lolol
Some photoshopped nike pics and suddenly it's a must have. Oh well. Nike is the best I guess, and it happens yearly.
CANNOT WAIT FOR THESE!!!! 4 pairs minimum. Xmas and pythons and whatever else nice comes up.
took the words out my mouth but as u mention this is nothing new to the kobe line,

i still dont like the del sols the light yellow sole throws the shoe off IMO

if they wouldve did white wouldve copped instantly or even the same color yellow as the upper
 
now we're talking....:Nthat

that black del sol look more interesting day by day.....and now after seeing that official pic it looks even better....

hope the ride is also as good as kobe V and VI...... if so then i'll be back to kobe shoes:)
 
Feeling these more and more. I'd definitely like to see an "Invisibility Cloak" version. Probably unlikely, but I think it'd be awesome.
 
Nice to finally see some official stuff come out. I guess they're really gonna be going all in with the whole snake pattern thing for the uppers. Hopefully something will release that'll catch my eye and not be too over the top with the print they use.
 
Those Pythons are #1 on my list. The 8's looks promising so far. I hope that they don't disappoint us with the colorways like they did the VII's.
 
I see a lot of familiar faces now posting in here from the beginning of the thread. Official pics are in!! lol
