I really hope that these htm versions just look like this. There is supposed to be a mid and a low, correct? Please please please look different. If not I'm not into the 3 nike sigs this year. Bummer city.
 
I personally think these could turn out being pretty dope both performance wise and casually. Really cool to see something totally new and unexpected. Excited to see the final product and some different color ups. Got my attention.
 
I hope everyone passes so I can cop any cw comfortably with a coupon

It's the usual though, mostly every shoe these days grows on everybody with the right cw. Launch cws have been weak over the years, this included

Yup,please pass on these people so I can buy lol.
 
finally teaser pic for kobe 9, good job for the original uploader :smokin i think this one is the HTM version (see the colar ankle part) , still waiting for the real pic then i can judge it

Wow, that is the definition of going from one extreme to another. We go from a sleek low in the 8s to space boots in the 9s. Even the mid looks higher than usual. Thank you Nike for saving me 3-4k by allowing me to sit out a year of releases. One less guy competing for any of the 9 releases. Now I can focus on picking up all the 8 releases I want with money reserved for 9s.

I can't believe most people are feeling these. I mean really, do you guys have EYES? :x


@lewi1913 you will get a pair I'm sure they will grow on you

U sir get the golden egg

Lewi just save it, u will be 1 of the 1st to do a 180 and go ham for 5 pairs

Same crap I said about those smugly Mambacurials and nearly got baptized for it

If u can have multiples of those, then u definitely WILL have 5 of these, hi's or/and maybe lows
 
It's kind of funny to me that people still actually believe early pics from Nike shoes are "leaked". Nike is one of the most successful marketing companies in the world & trust me nothing leaks that they don't want to leak. Just like that exclusive pair of Nike's or Jordan's that you see your favorite rappers in months early or those people who have sample pairs months early doing sneaker reviews on YouTube. All those shoes have been given to them by Nike/Jordan Brand. A picture leaking is meant to be leaked. It's all just a form of advertising & away to see how sneaker enthusiast react to that particular shoe. As stated before Nike reps definitely be on NikeTalk, reading reactions both good & bad
 
I think you will be able to wear them casually, just putting pants or jeans over the high ankle part. Just because you can't stick the tongue out doesn't mean it can't be worn casually. I have really been looking forward to this shoe and can't wait to lace em up.
 
Initial thoughts, not in love with the high top sock look.

Love the carbon fiber midsole and clear outsole tho.

After pondering a bit, will pass on HTMs and wait to make judgment on the lows.
 
alot of dudes are saying "passing on the 9s" "money saved on the 9s" off this 1st pic but this is the mid version of the 9s. yall aint safe once the 9 lows/ mids leak you'll be beasting over the 9s once a different CW surfaces of the 9 mids alot of dudes will bust a 180. dont jump to conclusions before nike has everything out on the table

that's why I am not taking a stance or opinion on the 9 yet, waiting to see more pics and information before i jump to a conclusion here

Exactly. ..Dudes are quick to say this, I never understood how they place judgment on a sneaker series based off 1st pic?? Lol

I have a feeling when it's all said and done these will be considered a classic shoe for Nike. From the hight to the use of flyknit. Brings back memories of seeing the Foamposite One for the first time in 97. Speaking of the Foamposite One 180$ now is common place. In 97 though it was laughable.
