Too bad Nike won't make enough of them along with other Kobe sneakers to meet consumer demand. Why even remove when from the Nike store in the first place if they weren't address the issue that caused the removal in the first place?


ITS EMBARRASSING.. NIKE REALLY DROPPED THE BALL ON KOBE KICKS

IF U WALK INTO ANY FOOTLOCKER RN THERES LITERALLY ZERO KOBES

MEANWHILE, U CAN FIND 30 DIFF STYLES OF JS

IT MAKES NO SENSE WHATSOEVER

I hate low tops but Kobes are the best shoes I’ve ever played in on the court.

Curry’s shoes are underrated though. They’re just as comfortable as Kobes are.

Kobe was who introduced me to low tops with that soccer analogy back in the day :wow: I remember the arguments at school over ankle rolling. I was wary but I copped the KD4s down the line and never looked back.

I got some Kobe 4s in the outlet before he died. Every Kobe use to make it to the outlet not anymore :mjcry:

I used to see them sitting on Final Score all the time and now even the basic Kobe sneakers are gone now. I wonder was stock inventory always this level prior to his death and they just weren't selling like that until now.

It just doesn't make sense that Nike isn't making enough of them to meet demand now when it never used to be a problem previously.
