While watching EuroLeague & NBA, we noticed something. Almost everyone is wearing the same shoe - Kobe 6s. In this video, BasketNews' Gytis Blazevicius takes a look at what might be the secret formula of success behind all of it.

Just sharing you this, as Romans 6:23 says, for the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. God loves you so much that he sent his son Jesus Christ to die on the cross to pay the price of all our sins. After 3 days after he died,he rose up from the dead. He will accept you not matter what you been through or have done. Accept the lord Jesus Christ as you lord and savior and ask forgiveness of all your sins to be saved from sin and have eternal life and not go to hell Jesus is our only hope for salvation and the if you don’t accept him you will not heaven and you will go to hell if you don’t accept Jesus Christ as your lord and savior ❤

Kobe 9s weren’t about ankle support at all it was a low top that looked like a high top. Kobe designed it like a boxers shoe after watching Manny Pacquiao boxing and was impressed by his footwork

@william-uc2oy Месяц назад

I’m all in on the KB9. Still have the black,red,and Bruce Lee. All for gym only. I’m a 14.5 and they’re still my favorites. The KB6 was great. But the 9 is best for me.

Kobe 6's are so good and also so popular that they made a volleyball variant called the Hyperattacks, which literally share 1:1 designs with the 6's.

@SP.007 Месяц назад

I've never understood why people like a high top shoes. They say it's for the ankles, but whenever I've worn them, my ankles just feel stiff.

@jdabelado716 Месяц назад

It's actually true that it's for ankles. But you're actually right about it being stiff. Your knees would get compromised because of it. That's why I'm wearing mid cut shoes lol

@kingexclusivo Месяц назад

i think they’re more comfortable

@toskiemail1371 Месяц назад

High cuts feel way too chunky on my feet. Mid cuts are the best. If I need any more ankle protection I'd wear straps/braces but even that'd mean I gotta go half a size up on my shoes. Compression socks are the best.

@gobbledygookie Месяц назад

Yep, they're supposed to feel stiff, that's what ankle-protection means. Perosnally it saved me from a bad ankle sprain on more than one occasion. Low cuts definitely feel better, no question about it, but less secure. Some people say "just wear ankle braces" or would lecture you about strengthening your ankles, but every foot's anatomy is different and there's no single truth that will work for everyone.

@jordan1390 Месяц назад

@@gobbledygookie there is no such thing as ankle protection from a sneaker the protection comes from how strong your ankle is ankle protection was marketing Strategy think about how many soccer players where low cuts and how much cutting they do if you need protection where an ankle brace not tryna debate just tryna educate

@jpool710 Месяц назад

To be honest the VI, VII and X are the bests basketball shoes that I ever worn, they might be not having the catchiest colorway and materials at the time but, they are the comfiest and even fit nicely on the forefoot. Making it easier to move around the court

@oak2396 Месяц назад

My theory is that low - to mid-cut bball shoes are better for your ankles because they allow your muscles to actually work. High-tops limit your ankles to depend on the sneaker.

@jasonfu2094 29 дней назад

The Kobe VI are low tops, low to the ground outsole, and barely any heel drop (basically flat) everything from they Kobe V and after are basically a modern Converse All Star. Converse got it right over 100 years ago, you can actually ball in the Converse Chuck 70, the rubber outsole and the cushion insole provides enough protection (don’t try to play in the cheaper Chuck’s though, they are literally defined as slippers to avoid import tax laws). The whole “low cut,low outsole” is genius marketing, Bill Russell was jumping out of the gym every game in low cut Converse All Stars, look at old NBA photos from 1950s-60s, the low top Chucks were just as popular as the high tops. TIME IS A FLAT CIRCLE ⭕️.

@bball3048mmfr 5 дней назад

My main gripe with Kobe's shoes is that they fit way too narrow. I can never find comfortable shoes that have a wider toe box.

@jasonfu2094 5 дней назад

@@bball3048mmfr Yea, that is the problem with Signature Shoes, they are made for a specific person then sold to the masses. Luckily I have a narrow foot so Kobe’s work for me, while Lebron’s feel like work boots. Also love those Converse Pro BB Eclipse in low, which I know is based on one of the Kobe’s.

im 45+yo and i dont care much about shoes, however, if i ever come accross one of these i might consider getting them :) I had a pair of nike airs when I was 21yo, for me those were the best shoes ever. my son has a pair of jordans (his second pair), im somewhat happy that jordans are still around and even more popular.

The 1st shoe I ever saved up for and used my own money playing basketball in high school-wore them for 3 years and played in 2 state championships. Retired them after HS but I still have my royal blue Kobe VI's. Not a fan of the crazy color ways really, but I will contend that this is the best hooping shoe ever made.

Another thing I’ve noticed besides so many players wearing Kobe’s/6’s, is that players more so then regular folks have Kobe in their goat discussion more often.

@lantidis1 Месяц назад

05:18 ...for the same reason that pro bball players wrap their ancles solid with tape while in other sports they don't. Basketball is a sport where you jump among many players and thus you have higher chances of landing on top of another foot and sprain your ancle. Kawhi could say a lot about the matter :P . Of course the low cuts have other advantages but for all the non pros that play basketball out there and don't get their ancles braced by some physio guy before the games, the mid-high cuts offer some protection

@rosenvasilev4219 Месяц назад

Plus all the pros are doing so many polymetrics for ankle stability and mobility. Their muscles and joints are on whole another level. Regular folks playing for fun without all those extra stuff, might find use of the mid-cut more.
