Hyperdunks

[Dim Tuncan]

ALright, I know this isn't exactly a Kobe-friendly forum, but I'll ask anyway - who's getting a pair?

I know I sure as hell am. Ballijuana? Mr. Bottomtooth? Anyone else?

no way... his old herache(or however it's spelt) back in like 2005&2006 were awesome but these hyperdunks are hideous. unless there's some rave out there that's gonna flood the nation with ballers who lay claim that these shoes are the best on the court i'm not purchasing a pair. that's some fugly ass shit on that foot.

[Medvedenko]

I'll be getting a pair, and the mamba's I purchased a few months back are the best shoes I've ever worn playing ball.

I'm at least going to try them on and see. Weight is usually my number one priority with BB shoes and these are apparently only a miniscule 13 oz. I think they look great too- especially the all black ones. We'll see, but probably.

That is one :vomit: looking shoe.......

[Mr.Bottomtooth]

Nice. :tu

I don't think they look particularly great.

I thought his second shoe with adidas was amazing. One of the most comfortable basketball shoes I've played in. Only problem was I played a lot of basketball back then (at least 4-5 times a week for a couple hours each day... ah to be a college student again) and they got worn out quick in like 3-4 months. Light and comfortable but did not last long.

I don't care for this particular color scheme, but they are bad-ass shoes.

[JamStone]

I wonder why they would choose that color scheme.

[balli]

The all black ones. :tu I can't believe some people don't like these. It's BY FAR the coolest shoe to drop since the 2k4

I wear any of the Nike Kobe's shoes...definately one of the lightest ones out there.

I still cnat believe i bought the Tmacs (the one without the shoe laces) That metal contraption that tightened the shoes must have weighed 5 pounds lol

[mavs>spurs2]

One question, how much are they? I typically don't like to go out and spend 150 dollars on a pair of shoes, unless they're team shoes and i'm going to be wearing them for a whole season.

I dont know..but ive been always able to buy his new shoes for less than a bill...lots of places have pretty good sales for his shoes.

[Dim Tuncan]

What's cool is that the crosslinked fibers are made out of some proprietary material Nike developed known as FlyWire - supposedly 5 of them can support a 200 lb. person. I gained a lot of respect for the shoes when I learned that the cool looks are actually functional and not just aesthetic.

[ratm1221]

How much do these shoes cost? $150? $200? I wonder how many years wages that is for the kids that make them?

[koriwhat]
