These were too ahead of their time. If these would have released more recently they would have been more popular since you can see some of the inspiration behind certain Yeezys.
Bruhh these are 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥! In my honest opinion, these are better looking than the MB 01s and AJ 12s. They are very comfortable to play ball with in contrast to some people say about its performance. I don't have a sweaty feet and these fit good to me.
Heat🔥 it’s crazy how back then it was such a weird unique looking sneaker and nowadays it kinda feels normal after seeing all the other crazy sneakers that have deopped, I got myself the stormtrooper color way and I’m excited to have them in hand
I got Adidas Crazy 8 Nightmare Before Christmas. One of the most underrated sneakers ever made. Has shiny purple leather on upper that resembles Jordan 7 doernbecher. Has the waves in it & everything. Glow in the dark splatter paint on the midsole. Laces that resembles Jack the Pumpkin King’s suit. And the sockliner & insole are quilted. It’s top notch quality. Great shoe. Super Happy that I got My pair.
Heavily slept on sneaker i copped the stormtroopers for 105$ on goat and i wear it proubly. I always get a compliments when i take these out. I tell people if you like it wear it, be different
I just bought this Stormtrooper colour at GOAT and months ago I got the Lakers colour in white and gold/yellow with a few purple. Played them in the gym and I can say that as a 46 year old man it provides me great support at the ankles plus a very good traction. I'm now thinking of buying another in the black/gold/yellow colourway.
Man, these are for the real Kobe fans. I had the white and black pair as a youngster. I bought this pair and the silver pair , just waiting on the all star sunshine pair to release. Classic sneaker! Goes perfect with a bagger pants look.
I have a retro minty green pair. I actually bought them for bball way way back and they went out of the rotation for me… I recently tried them on again and I've decided that they should be for casual wearing only lol.
I bought the Metallic Silver today, after compare with the Stormtrooper. Ok, TBH, I can't got Stormtrooper after long waiting😂, so I bought the Metallic Silver but they are both amazing sneaker.
My dad destroyed these as a framer with the last retro he had a very sad look after Kobe died and telling him he could have gotten big money at that time 😂🙏
i had the og "sunshine"/all star colorway of these and also the playoff colorway , loved the futuristic look (car based design were a thing back then/e.g AJ14) also have the The Kobe II and they were and till this day the heaviest pair of bball shoes i've ever set foot in. A few yrs back i manage to get my hands on a pair The Kobe III samples and i'll just say im glad KB went to Nike ,the design was just awful. On a sidenote, sneaker free agency era Kobe >>>>>>>>
