  1. amazingly after all these years, I still have these particular model and C/W of the Kobe 2’s. they are almost totally worn down but man they are extremely durable for outdoor/everyday use and even balling. also the cushion setup on these are really comfortable as they are fused underneath the insole. the materials are amazing. the only complaint I have of it is the high top collar which can really be a pain to your achilles heel.

  2. Beautiful to collect,

    In guessing all of them are around the $200 mark,

    Goodluck to all the collectors.

    1. This is dropping in AUS, just watchout for your local footlocker. Our footlocker have there release calendar including the price tag. Goodluck collecting

  3. As a huge Kobe fan since childhood it would be nice to get em all…the collection retail is upwards of 2500$ though.

  4. I gotta be honest here, this is a disappointment for me. I feel like the ‘fade to black’ theme could’ve been encapsulated in one shoe. I think a gradient white to black would’ve been dope on the 11. For most of these models, a similar all white colorway is readily available on ebay from the original release. The kobe 1 should’ve commemorated his 81 point game, then the 4 should’ve been his first ring without shaq, or something like that. There isn’t enough history for me here. Not to mention the only one with a hint of Laker colors is the 8. Lets be straight though, there will be an onslaught of dope colorways as each shoe is endlessly retroed the way Jordans are. Can’t wait for that, so I really have to pass on all of these.

  5. I always wanted another pair of the kobe 1s, but these will probably be a headache to pick up. Those kobe 2s Ive always wanted to try. The free sole on a basketball shoe is something nike should have explored more.
