OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE 8 SYSTEM THREAD

Hello, New Member Here
Long time Lurker

Nice post to SN ratio.

Are they on a purple kick right now? At least give us the purple, yellow and white we want.

It's like the well is dry, but they're trying to ring out that last drop of water.

Got my GC Christmas 8 pair from Kicks crew. The packaging was good; however, the shoe box was beat up. Haven't had good luck with shoe boxes as of late (graffiti, Fear 4 and Christmas box).

I would like some Suns & Celtics colorways

..not

 

[sportspenguin]

Just picked up my superhero 8s that I stock located at ftl last week and they look great! Just waiting on my GC BHMs from kicks-crew which shipped yesterday...I love the 8!

 

[la kb24]

i know right

The tongue is just like the MC one, wonder if it feels the same, because the MC feels great

 

[earldagoat]

That is one gnarly scar.

how much did you drop???

 

[spiderjericho]

Are those customs (Purple Fades)?

I just got my superheros too for 150 shipped and I love them

hey guys, I've been looking for VBs for a minute now and I found a pair on a euro site called Bouncewear for 194 shipped, has anyone ordered from that site? wanted to see if you had a good experience, if so I want to order these

 I think a lot of people on here ordered the MCs from Bouncewear when they had them in stock and they came through fine. $194 is kinda high for VBs though in my opinion, especially when you also consider a customs fee could be tacked on top of that. I'd say $175-180 is more reasonable for VBs

I was in class and some kid was wearing the VB's and our teacher was just roasting him for it. Telling him they look like his kid's play-doh after they mix all the colors together.

Superhero's for $135 shipped (bday coupon and a gift card)
GC BHMs were $262 shipped, right before kicks-crew took the price up.

I felt lucky with the superhero stock locate cuz I wear an 11. And the shoes looked immaculate. I was afraid that they would have scuffs or signs of wear, but they are fresh!

This colorway was made for Candice Dupree of the WNBA's Phoenix Mercury. Maybe Vanessa got every made shoe in her size, PE's included.

Once again, no snake= PE. And no the mercurial special colorway doesn't count.

 

[chiacrack]

Trust me if I could find VBs cheaper elsewhere I would but I've seen nothing under 200 on eBay

 

[chiacrack]

. Some hate em some like em it's all preference.

They look like crayolas that threw up or melted together but I think it's a cool colorway. I wish they didn't use red though

 

[tigo0240]

I like the VB's man. Crazy, loud, not an everyday shoe but I like em. I paid $225 shipped for my size 14's...quick look on ebay shows nothing cheaper than $239.

Like em, got the money? Go for it duder.

I was thinking of ordering from that website also.

I have not been able to find a DS pair of VB's in my size for under $200 for months now.  

I really like the VB's, but I am hesitant because I do not know if Bouncewear is legit.  I sent them an email but they never replied.

Is there a superhero snake ? What about elite snakes ?

well its called Venice Beach

he shoulda' told him to go to Venice Beach & it looks like that from far most of the times

 

[kobe jnr]

Those are not an exclusive.

Nike better not release those.. come on

 

[dreamteamusa]

The first time I seen the Venice Beach pair it reminded me of them ugly *** Coogi sweaters B.I.G. used to wear. I can't believe this is what dudes was rocking in the 90s:

 

[bigslim773]

Sooo is it me, but why are the VBs all of the sudden the topic of discussion? I check in here and its being highly discussed then some kid messaging me on IG about the VBs as well... Did i miss something? Lol

 

[sportspenguin]

I love the VBs and I'm a person who always stays away from loud, multicolored (more than 3) shoes.

Guess it's just how the shoes hit your eyes...always comes back to, "to each his/her own"

 

[bigslim773]

^^i agree. Tomorrow is my b.day, might wear my VBs for the 1st time(weather permitting).

 

[mjt26]

Just because someone gat a pair of shoes, doesn't mean they weren't exclusives. That pickup game group had pe's all summer. But if y'all want to believe that they're coming out, go for it.

The WNBA PE 's were posted earlier, when the season started and hardly anyone paid attention.
