The home elites are nice in person but would have been spectacular without that piss color on the flywire. It just looks like a mistake. The aways are cool but too similar to last years BHM. They looked better in pictures.

On the fence with the homes. I'll cop and stare at it all day before deciding on whether to keep. Did that with the pdf's and ended up returning them the next day. Too hideous for me

Basically I wanted to know if they felt and looked better than the normal Kobes? I was hoping maybe they used Cushlon in them or maybe the scales were more "luxurious"

Exactly how Justhotkicks said Kobe plays in a one piece shoe but I found it interesting that he actually has another tongue underneath the Play Strong sleeve

 

[geoff2005]

so is he just promoting his shoe by making people think he likes to play in play strong?

yup, saw that yesterday when I went on a mall run. I didn't see a single sales associate on the floor, so I don't know what sizes they have. I didn't bother to call them out as I was trying to catch up with the time.
  
@onlitwo, it seems that guy was trying to reverse rape you.

 

[crh1979]

Interesting shot of the PEs up there

What's the average going rate now for a pair of Galaxys? I got sniped on a pair a few weeks back that ended at 175 plus shipping. Since then I've been looking and looking, but the cheapest I'm finding now is like 240 shipped and up

keep waiting, youll be able to get them for 200. just gotta negotiate.  people are gonna wanna unload them if they are sittin on them a while

 

[kobe29]

In all honesty, It is disappointing to see Kobe doesn't even wear the same shoe (insole/inserts) as the rest of us.  I know Jordan had tons of PE as well, I still think that's not cool, (and never buy jordans cuz its so uncomfy...)  selling something you don't even wear yourself is kinda wack.  I mean if you wanted the shoe any different, shouldnt they have just decided that before production was made.

 

[Kobekobe]

^ it's business. He's just promoting his product. Simple as that.
