but both the red and black have the same kobe 6 texture, yall buggin all 4 exts have been fire this yr, better than the red suede yots last yr
Nah the reds have a "spikey" texture a la the red october, with snake scale pattern on the heel. The blacks have the 6 texture.
 
They would have looked better as mids like the other black snakeskin ext.

If that's the case I'm have to wait for official pics to decide on a pick up or not
 
I was already sick to my stomach after seeing the Black and Red EXT's but now I'm forced to see a pair of Homo Tigers on foot?

I'm out of here.
 
Damn, the ext's would look a bit better IMO if it actually had the carbon fiber plate, not the mirror
 
Still wish all the EXT's had been done with carbon fiber instead of the "chrome".

I had just said something similar. Especially with the CW's they have done, the black would have looked much better.

Fortunately you can buy the auto quality 4D carbon fiber vinyl sticker stuff and just cover the shiny stuff. I'll use a pair of EM's to cut the pieces to size on.
 
The thing about the EXTs is that the shape of the shoe is odd IMO x 2

I think that if the mold or w/e was left alone and some other part of the shoe was tweaked, like the mirrors, then it'd be a product worth being excited about.. IMO


























But still PASS for 275$..

I think the shape is a bit odd because it's all leather/synthetic leather, and therefore bulkier, built on the same last as the elite high, dunno for sure though. But I know what you mean.

$275 is steep, and I wish the outsole was gum or clear black, or clear blue, or anything but opaque black, but if the opportunity presents itself I will cop.

I do like these EXT's better than most EXT stuff Nike has done. Besides these I really have only liked the LeBron 10 stuff and the KD Floral. I guess the Kobe 8's weren't bad either.

Blacks are the best out of all the EXT highs, but that $275 price is a no go. I do plan on getting the mids at some point though. Had to pass when they originally dropped.
