THE OFFICIAL NIKE KOBE FOOTWEAR THREAD: RIP LEGEND 1978-2020. MAMBA FOREVER | 8-24-24

It seem like once a sig player retires nike starts to turn the line to a life time shoe minus a lot of tech.
 
 
Agree with people above.  Clean colorways are great.  But look at the 8.  If Nike is going to stray away from FK, that's fine, but give us some interesting prints on these.  If these are not going to be FK, give me something interesting like the days of 'Milksnakes' and 'Sulfurs.' These look like HS team shoes.  They should be on discount out of the gate.
This. Apparently the "NXT" version is going to be flyknit, but honestly I don't see the point of doing an elite/flyknit version anymore because Kobe is retired. Nike might be shying away from doing too much on this model because maybe they're shifting their focus on the PG 1's.
 
hooped in my A.D.s today and they felt great! Traction was a 10/10 and I had translucent soles on too. The shoes were super responsive to my style of play. The heel lock down was out of this world as well! The lunar sole and Nike zoom heel were outstanding. Don't get how people are steadily hating on these... no break in time needed either!

Btw I'm a 6"1 180 combo guard if that helps

"I'm not a Kobe stan cause Kobe stans are dumb..." "...I cried during his last game..."

STAN!

I'm a Kobe fan but I didn't cry when he tore his achilles (which I thought was really sad) or during his last game. I've only cried because of 1 dude & that was when my uncle died. 

Yall go ahead & value the opinions of these dudes if you want. 
 
I've seen two or three positive reviews on YouTube and then two super negative ones from these two. I Don't get it
 
NW review is negative af

Super Bros were 50/50

Asian dude from WearTesters was like 70/30 in favour?

Hoop and Life 70/30 in favour?

Jahronmon was negative (sole broke off and he still reviewed them?) - got annoying voice anyway

Foamer Simpson annoying as hell.. 

Sorry a bit hungover from NY.. what a negative start to 2017 lol

I can tolerate the other testers, but I can't stand Jahronmon with his annoying sounding voice, horrible diction and accentuation of words.  Like I said before, he's like that annoying kid in your class that you never want to speak.  I think NW only keeps him around so that Jahron can edit some of his videos.  After NW makes a statement to counter what Jahron has to say, Jahron quickly changes his stance saying "oh yeah that's true", like he wants to agree just so he can stay in the spotlight, riding NW's coat tails.  It's no wonder NW tries to have Jahron's channel grow by posting some the content of Jahron's youtube page, but yet no one watches them or subs, so they re-repost it on NW's.
 
Full zoom is the most overrated thing since sliced bread.

Not to me. Damaged my big toe with the lunar crap cause there's no support when jumping. Toe bent sideways pretty much. Still hurts 1 year later.

Sole Bros and Hoop and Life both liked them a lot and put these in their top 3 for the year.
 
Shouldn't worry about reviewers anyway use there opinion to help choose a model, but if your gonna cop anyway it aint matter.
