The top one is the best colorway. I like the silhouette of the shoe but not the colorways.
The carpe diem, USA, allstar, and the blackouts for me.
I like'em now. I gotta try them on cuz I like how the IVs wrap around ya ankle.
I hope these do that also.
These look really similar to the VI's. Where is the creativity Nike? Why play it safe? You didn't during the Jordan years.
I mean IV's, my bad.
Look like a combo of the hyperdunk low and IV`s
Tech:
Zoom Forefoot
Zoom Heal
Flywire (Skin wire)
Naahhh!!!
nice but the iv looks better IMO but maybe it is just me.the cw kobe rocked at the 2k10 event is best...just like design better on the iv personally! we shall see though..may grow on me but have to say i am on the fence!
Ok, who said this design wasn't final? pwned!!!
Time to stock up on the IV's
by the way, that underside ain't gonna give you traction with that kind of pattern.
i also think the cutoff swoosh is ugly, and that heel tab, yuck.
i love kobe's but these are the worst.
only like the last cw.....want to see what the MLPS cw would look like also.
blackouts are nice, only reason these i will buy these over the ivs is for the zoom forefoot
hmm...idk yet. they look nice here in the pictures...but thats the pictures. i need to see them in person. hold them and check em out.
feelin' the first colorway.
they are ok but i agree wit balla where is the creativity ?
Well, think of AJ3, and AJ4. Very similar. Well the IV had some new technologies, but there's gotta be some improvements for the ZK5, maybe its just not visible on the outside.
much better look!!! i dig just about all the colorways. when are they dropping???
they look more like running shoes. the IV's look more legit that these. Whats up with the swoosh logo? home come it gets cut off? It does look more light weight than before. Stick with 1 -- 2.5 colors. Like the red and orange up there. That eggplant color looks good. Maybe apply it on the top part of the shoe and then the bottom sole black. C'MON NIKE! I know you can do better.
the shoe is ok but i am a die hard laker hater from l.a. so nope on these. i don't care if they fit like a sheep skin condom
ROFL!!!!!.........sheep skin condom!!!.........hahahahahaha!!!!
-home colorway (new)
-inline away (from the IV's)
-MPLS (from I,III, and IV's)
-Black Mamba colorway (from the III's)
-Olympics
-McDonald's All-American? or may be a new SE
-ASG
-Carpe Diem (of course, from the IV's...classic)
Think the IV's were the best b-ball shoes of all time?
These will be that much better. Expected changes are heel and FOREFOOT zoom air, plus an even lower cut for faster movements. Wonder how that traction pattern will hold?
While the IV's looked like some sweet casual kicks, these V's look like some super sleek performance oriented kicks.
This is a definite must-cop, hoping these will hit NikeID as well.
Looking good ... Love the Mpls Laker colorway! Will be looking to copp those.
The only Kobe's I ever like were the adidas joints and the KOBE Strength. With that being said, these, like the IV's aint bad, but they aint good either. Nothing Fly about these. Lebrons have always been better anyway.
