^i see.
that's really interesting... only a thin piece of insole can make that big differences... hmm
u r 6'2 and 160 lbs only? damm u better be a good player ;D
cuz u had my dream body weight n height... IMO, most of the athletic, quick and high flying players are at about that scale of body weight vs. height

yeah, insoles seem to be the key with the VIs. maybe a little point goes to theOriginally Posted by al3x89

phylon set up in the VI? maybe? don't know. LOL.
the all I know is the 4,5 and 6 will be the classic kobes ever. With the 6 taking the cake
mainly due to design cues. it's really like NOTHING YOU'VE EVER SEEN before
design-wise. I will buy more 6 than I did 4 and 5 combined. not hyping these mfers, just
my personal liking to the particular model is different. Just like how I felt when buying
the old Js (11,12,14,8,3 and surprisingly the 2011s). It gets me excited really.
btw, haven't pulled the trigger on these V ids. might have to though before feb ends.
overall, NIKE, thank you for these last few kobes. crazy.

First Pair of ID's made (1/14)........... 100% HAPPY.... Inspired by the Thunder, and I wanted to make a strictly Summer Shoe....
Sole is so icey.. My camera sucks so doesn't accurately represent them
Now I feel rather addicted to ID's

Essential if you dont mind, can you take pics of the upper with out flash and/or outdoors? My next pair is gonna be all orange w/ exotic and I want to see how well the exotic pops or if I should stick with metallic.

my first pair of iDs r here~
was talking about it earlier that i still waiting, n later of the day, it came.
i originally planned to do the black laces swap with the VIs blk/del sol when these come in~ but when they r really here, i found out the del sol laces r looking quite good on them... tough choices...
but i still gave a try
after changing the laces... the blk laces looked fine on the iDs, i think if i wear them to ball, black laces would looked cooler on the Vs~ but if i wear them casual, del-sol laces will pop it better
and i always thought del-sol laces on the VIs r looking hot! but after i changed it, i change my mind as well... they actually looking ok in person~ becuz the swoosh on the shoes r darken cuz of the upper of the shoes~ the laces delsol color is a lot brighter... when u see them in person, u can see the color brightness differences on the laces and the swoosh...
maybe i shud just keep the laces on their own shoes? wht do u guys think?

keep the original laces for each. I agree with the del sol swoosh
not complementing nicely with the del sol laces. tried that myself.
didn't really work because of the darker swoosh.
again, great ids....

kobeoverbron - I appreciate that man.. I was trying to go with a take on OKC Thunder that I've never seen done (besides the Cremsicles) and that was make Orange the Focal Point, and make subtle touches of the Neptune Blue, Navy Blue, and Del Sol..
XanGelicO- I wish they gave the option of getting extra laces. Did they do those for the ZK4 ID's (I thought they did but I could be thinking about another ID)?
2 questions to anyone aware of laces: 1. Would the Nike Red Laces go well with the 5's, I have an idea for a color way that needs Red Laces.. 2. Anyone know a site that has laces for the V's...

i think i m gonna keep my blk/del-sol VIs with its own laces...
but the iDs... still debating with the del-sol laces or the blk laces... both looked nice on them... dam headaches
if i wnt blk laces on them, i need a pair of blk laces... smh

i kno man, i think everyone of us wishing nike allow us to order extra laces, lol
and yes, those Nike Red laces save lives r really matching the Vs, no worries~ go to the original Vs thread, i had my blk out laced up with those red laces picture.
And i believe there isn't any site tht has Vs type of laces for sale... if so, someone had posted already... the laces gave lots of us headaches on matching

I saw a pic of the BL's with the red laces... Not sure where the pic of yours are...
Thanks again...
I'm somewhat glad I didn't pull the trigger until a couple weeks ago because if I started beginning of 2010 I'd have like 20-25 pairs SMH..

here is mine.
the shape of the laces r very similar of the Vs laces, so perfectly fine to use them.
I already have 25 pairs of Vs, 6 pairs of iDs... i feel very guilty
