First off, Nike has to stop limiting Kobe’s shoes. Make them widely available again. Second….. Nike should release og cooorwqys with og tech specs & new cokorways as protros.
They have made them widely available, everyone just wants them now because the man is dead.
Og tech? Uh no. Protro. 👍 but yes og colorways.
@@Aqwtiny i still dont think they make enough of them. i mean, Nike proved they can build enough panda dunks to flood the market so i dont see why they shouldnt be able to do the same with some Kobe models and colorways
I agree with you bruh!
Plus they make them 190$ which is crazy
Bought myself a pair as my Father’s Day gift. The story behind this one along with the quality of the shoe did it for me 🔥🔥🔥
Same
Did the same here
Just won the SNKRS lottery for these Kobe’s. Gifted these to myself for Father’s and just like the Mamba, I’m a girl dad, too. Thanks for the sneaker review. R.I.P. Kobe and Gigi 🙏🏾
Yea me too it was my first time winning after so many times
Me ALSO 💯
I hit on SNKRS, and I couldn’t be happier. I do have a son, but my daughter made me a dad, and so I will wear these with pride. :-)
My wife and I are expecting our first child, a baby girl--due later this month. This was the perfect shoe for the occasion, and an awesome first Father's Day Gift to myself.
congrats brother!
I agree, retro the 2K4, it was perfect
The greatest shoe for me.
I'm my opinion they were terrible. I ended up returning them. The strap would never stay on and the traction was horrible. It's wierd when I hear people say it's one of the GOAT performance shoes because that was the exact opposite fot me
Best basketball shoe of all time
I love that Kobe moment with Gigi. Love it so much I bought the entire outfit he wore that day ad nxt 360 infrared
The Wilhelm Holler when you showed that black 2K4 in pieces was freaking hilarious! If that was Jodi's idea 🤣 Great video as always, but that one little thing elevated the whole vid!
Thanks for acknowledging the QOTD! That will create room for discussion. I also got the same 2k4 red colorway, they're ❤️🔥
As a Philly fan and a fan of Kobe’s shoes, these are a must have🔥
Hit a size 11 on snkrs of all apps this morning! So stoked! Loved this review, great job as always guys.
Good looking family photos. Looking like a proud dad. That’s what it’s all about.
First off love the channel! I hit on this and I am super excited to get these in hand! Love Kobe’s and this video makes me more excited for them.
I just got the W on SNKRS for these! I have three daughters (and three sons), so these were extra meaningful for me. What happened to Kobe and Gigi is heartbreaking. Memory Eternal. Thank you as always for the fantastic review!
Just won these today and I knew you would have the review 🕺🏾
I don’t know what it is about photos I’ve seen from other social media accounts, but the Girl Dad color looks way better in this video. For today’s QOTD: I loved the 2k4s and owned the All Star Colorway (with the LA stitching on the heel). As far as what I would change, the shoe is darn near perfect as is, but I’d switch up the foam to a Cushlon, just to make the heel-toe transition a little smoother. Other than that, keep the Zoom Air, the plate, and more importantly, the strap.
Thanks for the review Chris, glad you do these reviews, I've been taking L's all day trying to snag a pair of these, Kobe's are so hard to get for retail in Australia.
I just hit on these and I’m so happy… haven’t gotten a Kobe since the Kobe 1 protro. I’m a little nervous how they will play but I’m very happy after so many misses.
Been in love with these since I saw the first images! Not sure if I want to drop the crazy 🎒 it’s going to take to cop after they sell out though. In an ideal world I’d grab two…one to hoop in, one to wear out! Lol
Nike would be beyond lucky to have you
Beautiful shoe! That's a favorite color... Haven't owned a Kobe, but I would get these 🎉
the shoe is beautiful! another great video. I think they could do a react foam with a zoom stroble (Full Length)
Just got my pair in hand from SNKRS release. I love them and as a girl dad myself it makes these that much more special!!!
Nice colorway 🔥❤ premium quality
Hope the protro versions are more available to those who want to use the kobe for basketball
Happy early Father's day Chris! My favorite Kobe is the Philly from the Kobe Day releases. Keep up the great content sir! 🔥
Appreciate it!!
Wooooohooooo. I scored a pair via snkrs yesterday 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽 woooohooo. Can’t wait!!! These look awesome!
Nice! It seems like this colorway has been coming for years.
I’d like the Black/yellow Kobe 2 in a Protro. It was the first Kobe I bought back around 2006. I had initially bought a pair of Shoxs at footlocker, but one of the “shoxs” fell off within a few days. I took them back to Footlocker, and the manager told me he’d give me store credit for something else. I went for the Kobe’s because I was always a fan and wanted to ball in them as well. They were bulky but I liked the straps.
I would love a protro or a retro of the 2K4s. I played in the lows and they were amazing to play in. Zoom turbo bags in the forefoot would be my upgrade of choice and maybe cushlon 2 or 3 as the midsole foam or carrier
Great review. I just copped on SNKRS surprisingly. 2k4s are good as is. Nike also needs to bring back the 2k5s I had the black and white kobe pair during my JV year. Those were nice to play in
Been waiting for this vid
Dope review. Dope Kobe. Let me try on these.
Dude it's so easy
Throw a zoom strobel in the 2K4s and they are *chef's kiss 😍
Yes the suede are gorgeous!!
Nice colorway! Favorite Kobe 4 colorway from Protros
One of the few recent protros that the certainty of not getting a pair doesn't suppress my general liking for the shoe. I like what they did with these.
I hit on these on snkrs very surprised , I didn't know you are in sac . very cool bro
I won these today on the Nike app. The Kobe 4s are my all time favorite Kobe shoes. I am also a girl dad and love the story behind them
gonna wake up at 7am, enter the draw and go back to sleep knowing im already taking that L again.
What was the outcome
It wasn't a draw. First come on SNKRS. Scored a size 11 🎉💯👍
@@johnvarela794 glad you got em
@@johnvarela794 Ahh so that was the difference. All the past ones Ive won had a 15min cushion for draws. This one I knew right away and scored em. Good thing I woke up and tried right away :)
Got Em for my son size 7
Got a W today on the Snkrs app for a personal pair sz 13! Had to come check the vid to see whats to it before I get em! Salutes.
I'm on the weartesters website right now and I'm looking a Kobe 4 protro cut in half. I think it would have been best to either do a full length zoom strobel (since it's a little more articulaton vs a regular full length zoom unit) or a zoom turbo unit in the forefoot. Either way, i thought this girl dad colorway is beautiful and I'm looking forward to going in on raffles for them... And probably taking an L on them haha
Awesome review as always. 👌🏽
I want to see the 2k4’s in low’s. 🤔
Love the 2k4 Kobe had some fire pe's ie black white yellow
has a tiffany collab feel to it. the green and black and shiny part on the heel
Waiting for Jordan 4 oxidised green. great review btw
they can put a full length zoom on the 2k4 and call it a new retro. 😁 they can increase quantity production on kobe protros but then, resellers will only get them more and stock them even more if not sold.
Hope ur doing well. Keep grinding bro. Salut from FRANCE
2k4 definitively! I love these
Just hit on SNKRS let’s go!!
I drop likes before I even watch the videos. good works my guy
I would love for a proper black/grey 2k4 retro, as it’s my 2nd favorite shoe to hoop in, but knowing Nike they’ll give us the 2k5, in a brown color way that no one asked for. As for making it a proto. Add flywire on the side panels like the Kobe 4s. Change the foam to react and update the zoom unit, because the 2k4 doesn’t really need any changes
This particular Kobe 4 is not my favorite, but I started liking Kobe’s Nike line with the 4, so I still like it on a base level. That buttery suede is kinda changing my mind for the better. The 2K4 is a shoe that I felt was made for me back when they came out. They were cushioned, but not so much so that you felt like it took an extra half second for the shoe to bounce back from whatever move you wanted to make before making it. The 2K4 still had court feel and quick response without being hard.
Didn’t realize the color reasoning with this pair, between Kobe’s beanie and hoodie…Chris always insightful…🫡
i wish they used the cushioning set up found in the kobe ad nxt360 for more, if not all protro models
Ms. Wing is a savage with the edits.. miss her appearances at end of vids tho. Also I wasn’t feeling these until this video…how have I not learned this lesson by now. All. The. Time. For years. 😵💫😵💫
Beautiful shoes. I wish they would bring back the 2k3 as well
Love the colorway!
Presently I rate the KB6 and 9 plus the WOW AC12 as my favorites. But the KB 4 on foot looks so good. This particular model I want. Whether I pay retail or have to pay above. I’m a 15 or 14.5 in KB’s.
I neeeeeed Galaxy 7’s!!!! So keep the protros coming!!
Nike should make some real protros again. Like Kobe wanted them to be.
Question of the day. What color combo ppl wear us the worst? I.E. orange and brown.
@weartesters - For the 2k4, the first thing I would do would be changing the direction of the strap closure. Having a strap that attached/closed on the medial side of a sneaker, only left the opportunity to be unlatched when playing as one ran on the court. And over time, that strap would no longer attach due to abrasion. Have the strap latch on the lateral side, and problem solved. Second suggestion might be to add a zoom stroebel for for comfort / cushioning purposes. Otherwise, the 2k4 is solid throughout.
Great content, I feel Nike should keep the 2K4 as is and definitely keep the Kobe Protros coming. Also do agree that The 2K4 is over due and needs to be brought back.
I had the 2k4 retro you posted and mad I can’t find them even got pics decked out in laker gear lol
GOT EM!!! Been taking so many L’s on SNKRS I was surprised I got these.
These are awesome!!!! Hit on three pairs. Cancelled 2.
Great review!
QOTD: Just make them more available. Protros are awesome, make them more available.
My only pair of Kobes is a pair of the AD NXTs because you could get them reasonably priced. Unfortunately, the fit isn't great for my feet and I can't really play in them. Would love to play in a pair now that I'm playing again but it doesn't look like I'm going to be able to anytime soon with these resell prices 😕
2k4s 2k5s & 08 Hyperdunks Kobe played Olympics in are some of the best non signature I know in the Fade to Black series Nike included the Hyperdunks & the 2k4s were shoe ZERO in that series before the Kobe 1s hopefully they’ll do something like that again.
I like these Kobe’s! Also, I’d like more Protros, and more easily obtainable. Sucks I can never get my hands on a pair…😭
the color and materials used on this pair reminds me of the recently released under armour flotro curry 1 low bruce lee jade dragon, both are in shade of green and used suede leather.
it's really frustrating that nike does not listen to their consumers, release more kobes!
I have not owned any pairs of Huarache 2K4, so I would love to have one in OG form.
QotD: 2K4s! I would keep it as is, unless if there's materials they can upgrade it with! Maybe a Zoom Strobel?
The need to retro the 2k5 those were also beasts
Need those asap!!!
Dope Content my brother!
🔥🔒💯
Love the protro idea and want them to get more creative with it. Foams, zoom setups, upper changes. Give me a Huarache 2k4 Low with a full length zoom strobel or something. I want Nike to take big swings.
These look good.. think I want them
Another feature is on the medial side of each shoe is a hidden 2 and 4 pattern in the holes/dots. The number is printed out of larger holes.
Cant wait till mine come in the mail🔥🔥🔥🔥
The 2K4 is legendary! Maybe bigger zoom units? Or something full-length?
Got them on SNKRS!! First time I’ve hit on a pair of Kobe’s
I thought when Vanessa renewed the contract with Nike she was gonna make it easier to get Kobes.
Boy that was a fucking lie
All about the money. She is spitting on her husbands legacy!
Yup lies. Remember the restock of Grinches she claimed? 😄
I have been hitting every Kobe since the new contract I though they were easier to get now , guess I just been getting lucky
@@tamtamm84 nah you’re just probs one of the lucky ones, I’ve tried entering raffles, events both in the UK and US and still had no luck
@@tamtamm84yes you have. I struck out twice lmao
Always wanted a a pair of 2K4’s. I’d buy a few pairs of that shoe if they retro it.
I threw some dreamcell insoles from a pair of Jordan 1s in these and they’re super comfy
Honestly, it would be a good idea to retro all of Kobe's Nike shoes that he wore before his 1st signature. Cause that would still fulfill Kobe's objective of having his fans/consumers to play basketball in his shoes, and it's not limiting to just his signature line. Possibly the Hyperdunk 2K8, that would be another one they would need to do again, have it as the original or better than when they were first re-released in the 2010's.
Surprisingly got a w on these on the snkrs app 😂
Finally got a w for this shoe. Protro the Kobe’s continually and we will be good 👍
These look amazing
Great color
Full length Air Strobel for all!!!
If they are going to do more Kobe’s can we have them be more available to be purchased ?
If Nike is going to go through their vault of sneakers to update with new tech how about the Barkley line ?
QOTD suggestion: what do you think of the of New Jersey Nets retiring Vince Carters number before the Raptors ?
Boy dad but I’m still rocking these based on the story behind them and look.
finally able to cop a pair of kobes in a wearable size. for being my first, i am very happy with the shoe. i feel nike is slacking on the protro part of the shoe. but other than that, the shoes outer is nice to be more of a casual shoe to wear instead of playing basketball in them.
QOTD: Keep doing Protro Kobes. Not that I've played in many of them, but they seem like great models for playing in based on how common they are in the NBA. A little more availability for people that actually hope to play in them would be great. (It could be like what SB is doing with orange label Dunks right now--a few core colorways are available more commonly for people that do skate them.) Kobes are generally a great shoe and the best ones are competitive with anything out there today, a lot of which take their inspiration from these shoes. Having Kobes out there for sale with the most current tech in basic, team-friendly colorways so that players of all levels can use them is a good thing, and a great way to keep the legacy alive.
This particular model looks beautiful and tells the story of a moment in time--that's about all you can ask for in a Protro/retro model. Yet I'd feel guilty wearing them but I'd also feel guilty not wearing them. It's just that difficult still for me to accept the loss of Kobe. He and I are a couple months apart in age and, while he was never my favorite player, he has always been an enormous part of the cultural identity of my generation. God bless Allen Iverson because I don't know what I'll do if he's taken too soon, too.
Thanks for the video, Jodi and Chris. Thanks for letting me share my comment and have a like, too.
We early with this one 🗣️🗣️🔥🔥
Need these
Personally I’d love to see some of the old hitachi hoop shoes make a comeback as made to original specs. Those are dope. As far as the protros go, I think in the next year or so we’re going to hit a point where they become much easier to get, especially once some of the team bank stuff starts to come out. What’d I’d really like to see is some team bank colors (primarily of the 5 and 6) just be permanently restocked but then have OG colors and more special stuff like the Girl Dad pair be limited. I mainly like the 5 and the 6 for hooping in and I wouldn’t be as bothered about missing on SNKRs if I could get more pairs to hoop in.
I'd love to see the 2k24 with new internal specs or with og specs, i just wanna pair in hand lol
Yeh, I'd love a real protro release of the carpe diem colorway you pictured. For QOTD, I'd love real protro releases of Kobe's with enough volume that you could actually get them.
Very interesting colourway but i would prefer it with solid grey outsole.
TTS! Thank you!
Good looking pair of kicks.
