2008 obviously because of the Hyperdunk. I still have those. They were somewhat hard to get.
2012 obviously because of the Kobe VII.

Unfortunately those didn't age well, some better than others.
Almost a "gold" tint to them. Truly Gold Medal worthy now.

That's lowkey fire
Especially since they won the gold medal
Nike should release them, but with the tongue the same color.

I got a pair of white IDs that are like this now. There’s stuff you can use on them but might ruin other parts of the shoe, so I just left it lolUnfortunately those didn't age well, some better than others.

I still remember when James Harden wore the Kobe IV during his rookie season with the Thunder in 2009-10.

Please don't give them any ideas because they're devoid of them. It would be terrible if they did the Reimagined crap with shoes other than original colorway retro Jordans.

Tbh the reimagined pre-aged stuff is something only Jordan brand can pull off. Imagine Kobe’s rage if Nike didn’t care about protro-ing the specs (protro 4: “oh wait”) and put out shoes that looked aged.
Might as well put out Kobe 8 reimagined with pre-ripped mesh and cracked shanks smh

This guy was definitely motivated to maintain his Kobe shoes hookup.

I'm in NYC(Brooklyn). Originally it was supposed to be Sundays in Jersey but he couldn't find enough teams. So he switched it to Brooklyn and fortunately now it's only about a 15min drive. And most def... my body will catch up to my mentality! Best of luck in your 2 leagues. Def remember those days.

Aye the important part is you got back out there! Also, nothing like a league game to look forward to during the week… I am in one on Thursday nights and while I may be limping around all Friday, it’s worth itStarted back in a bball league.... been exactly 4 years... along with that the last time running a full being June last year.

I feel so stupid for not getting those Kobe VII 10 years ago.

Anyone in the market for Kobe 6s please be extremely careful.
New Chinese factory is making pretty much 1:1 reps of the grinch and mambacita's (releasing soon according to the website).
Compared these pics to my retail pair and personally can hardly tell the difference.

Someone posted this flaw on reddit. Problem is, this is the first batch.. so if they do another run they may fix it.
I think that area can vary from shoe to shoe and can be an acceptable flaw. My protro grinches are fine, but my OG china's are different. looked at my ID's, they're all different in that area too, no consistency.
