I bought a Gigi shirt and 2 Kobe hoodies from Bluethegreat and I love them. Fits a tad snug, but quality is fine.https://www.bluethegreat.com/shop
Has anyone copped these tees? curious how the fit and quality is. Portions go to MambaOnThree and other organizations
Great! if it fits a bit small. Maybe it'll give me inspiration to lose some weightI bought a Gigi shirt and 2 Kobe hoodies from Bluethegreat and I love them. Fits a tad snug, but quality is fine.
In Nike's defense, these were already made. They can't just stop production of everything else to churn out more Kobes. Maybe for future releases we'll see much larger quantities, but not these couple of Protro5 colorways (BigStages, 5x Champ, EYBL). I seriously doubt Nike is out here trying to induce hype right now by making these Protro5s limited. It was most likely the plan in the beginning before Kobe passed since the Big Stages were produced in July 2019. Then it just so happened that Kobe passed and demand shot way the **** up.
Did ANYONE cook on ANY Mamba Day releases so far?

No doubt these were already made but it was obvious how the release was gonna go under these new circumstances and how it was gonna look. I think their “Mamba Week” stuff was their way to try to legitimize it, instead of turning around to produce more/pulling the plug altogether/doing anything really.
Again I get this is a business at bottom line a company like Nike is not trying to spend or punt money... but it just ended up looking disrespectful to have an ad campaign about honoring Kobe, but doing actual business as if nothing was new. Just a half assed effort, coming off like “we’re still gonna do things our way but try to skate by without looking gross.”
EXACTLY. It’s NOT a “they were already produced” issue. It was a decision Nike made to do it like this.Jerseys were also an added production. They weren't made already, and they can be mass produced quickly. It's a friggin Swingman, not sewed/embossed. Nike has no sympathy here. JUST DO BETTER.
