THE OFFICIAL KOBE 9 THREAD ****** WHAT THE KOBE RELEASED ******** BHM RELEASE 1/19

[dcypoe81]

 
Any info on these?

Kobe IX Black NRGs. 

Might've been a 21 Mercer exclusive.

Came in this cold black colorway + White/Volt 2.

 
@DAR228  Those are the NRG's, already released in NYC in 2 stores I think. Were extremely limited

 
They're PEs.

Mercers/DSM/NRGs whatever you want to call them have a 3M swoosh, 3M in the laces, a speckled midsole & silver/grey stitches on the back as well as a scale type pattern on the plastic material that goes wraps from the midsole all the way to the top of the shoe. 

The PEs have all black laces, a silver swoosh, a plain midsole, just a shiny plastic instead of the scale pattern, and of course the red stitching. 

oh, and re-subscribed now that the FK lows are being released in the US...can't wait for them to hit ID

Golds look clean on court. I wouldnt mind taking a looksy this weekend.

I've yet to unDS my masterpiece pair and seeing these fk lows has me wondering if I should sell, trade or simply keep them assuming I don't get any of the fk lows for retail.

Would you guys trade masterpieces for both fk lows? I'm also thinking they might come out with better colorways.

I wish the purple was more of a mc purple.

I love the masterpieces but I've had that stuck in my mind as well. I might try and find a trade for both these fk lows for my mps. Well see

Love the mp flyknit cw but not the high model. Plus my bread is tight right now so I might have to let these babies and trade em off.

Those purple MJ joints are pretty tight. Crazy thing is I would have and did think that the white "Fundamentals/Gold" were the MJ joints though. They just remind of certain shoes Michael Jackson wore over the years ]Yeah I am in on those Hyper Grapes though and the grey ones too. That will make it 4 colorways I like and am sure about, maybe 5, if the Masterpiece colorway grows on me.

 

[ddash]

Why are they the MJ's?

 

[g-time]

Why are they the MJ's?

Because of the moon on the bottom of the soles. Got people thinking on mj's moonwalk.

Don't most of us already have a closet full of shoes?

But I get what your saying.

 

[ddash]

Ok,I was like purple and mj,I dont get it.

Reminded me more of Eddie Murphy Raw lol

 

[shaboy]

 

Thumbs up for both of those. The Details are still the top Kobe 9 to date IMO and those Mine Grey 8s were actually pretty decent. (Cue the widespread disagreement.

)

 

[gtmorgan23]

Those are the best, Details that is....

 

[yung flip image]

If I could get rid of all my highs except for the Details, I would. The flyknit lows got to me

after seeing this pic no doubt in my mind I made right choice grabbing heroes over these easy pass especially with lows coming soon that print looks tacky to me

 

[aceboogie86]

I like the lows flynit I wouldn't sell any of my highs for the lows at least not these 2 colorways i still want them but I think the high colorways are better

[la kb24]

so who's copping the gold elites?

 

[wrestlerj125]

Surprised nobody PS'd any fk low cw's yet

 

[daclark314]

Hopefully one of these releases is Gr. Wouldn't hate that.

The MJs are a big let down...on top of the moon pattern I don't see MJ at all.

I  was expecting a:

     1) black and white (like the shoes he always wears)

     2) red - thriller

     3) blue and white - the way you make me feel

     4) something with a glittery glove effect - billy jean

     5) something tribal-ish

They're too similar to my fades, but will still cop coz I love the purple.

Might get the Beethovens too since release is a month apart, so I'll have enough time to save up.
