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 ❤
@@gavcustomsno shoes can protect you from that, you have to improve your hip muscles and balance, plenty of people have rolled their ankle in high tops and weren’t able to still do open runs that day, either that or wear ankle braces
you have a good point but I had a shoes (and1 spree) and those shoes had a anti torsion system that worked pretty well. I have always had issues with my ankles and wearing those shoes prevented me from getting a sprained ankle so many times, I remember that one time I jumped and my left ankle was about to get sprained but those shoes prevented my ankle getting hurt.
That's just to not piss off volleyball purists. Many volleyball players openly wear basketball shoes. Aside from Kobe 6s I see KDs, Lebrons, and Currys on volleyball courts.
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
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.
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.
You’re gonna roll your ankle either way.. Plus less material = lighter.. If it wasn’t the fact Kobe was a soccer fan where they only wear low cut cleats so Kobe pushed the bar higher buy making shoes lower
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
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.
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.
@@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
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
Kobe 9 is truly overrated. Clunky, stiff, heavy. Great traction and decent cushion. I got 2 bethovens and they are not good performers. Haven't tried 9 EM yet but it makes sense why they would create one.
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 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.
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.
Realistically because Zoom Turbo is the best thing and it’s set up well in Kobes. Also honouring a legend that they desire to emulate in some ways (I’m not sure 😢Nike have done it perfectly but they’ve done it pretty well)
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.
I had the same blue camo ones when I was young, and man they were awesome. My favorite of all time for sure. We called them the avatars, because the movie released short before they dropped.
a pair of kb8 3s were sold on ebay recently for $400.. i was watching it for a few months.. i think they were underrated.. its a very rare pair and a good pair to add to any collection, adidas hasnt retroed it yet..
In the past, most of players love the Kobe 6. As a memory for Kobe Bryant, we will have Kobe 6 for remembrance for him. We will give respect for him after his Tragedy in 2020. Rest in peace, Kobe Bryant.
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. I personally have always said MJ, Kobe, then LBJ. The average person it’s MJ or LBJ 95% of the time. I think what the players think speaks volumes
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
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.
Idk, something about the Grinch’s is just amazing, I def play different with these compared to others, but I also did purchase ae1 storm troopers recently so we’ll see
Kobe’s is the best LOOKING (I’m not counting Jordan models nobody hoop in those anymore) BUT my top 3 to play in ever are 1. Zoom Freak 3 2. Zoom Freak 1 3. Kd 9 I’m a 6’3 athletic point guard. Zoom freak I feel like I get down hill the fastest, off the ground the fastest, and move side to side the most fluent in, the 3s just more than the 1s. The kd 9s I felt a bit slower and not as quick and athletic, but I felt like they kept me at a really good, consistent pace. The zoom freaks, I sometimes do get out of control in, but I have gotten better at managing that and using that extra speed in a good way.
Haven't really had a chance to rock that many really nice basketball shoes, but my favorite's thus fare are the Westbrooks Why Not 0.5s. My bum ankles really like these for whatever reason lol. They are really supportive, I literally never turned my bum ankles in these and I've had them for over 2 years now! Really light, the front sole is very soft and comfy and nice. My feet are quite narrow and these fit really tight, so I guess that's one of the reasons. I then got the Why Not 0.6 and they are not very good. The support is not that good, I turned the ankle twice in a few weeks, on just random movements... Not nearly as soft or comfortable on the soles, kind of feel like you are standing on solid ground, but not in a good way lol. So I still play in the 0.5s all the time, I only wear the 0.6s when I'm shooting around without much intensity. I just feel like my ankles will go at any time! I'm ordering the new ones soon, they look awesome, One Take 5 Quai 54s! They are "only" $100 and I really like them and they have nice reviews, so I think they'll be much better than the 0.6s.
tbh its mainly cause most of the leagues players are signed with nike and its the best option from nike other brands like li ning and anta make way better shoes imo but just have not nearly as much players signed
Also, you gotta be crazy bro for dissin the Adidas Kobe 3s...and the other 2 designs that followed, kudos to them for literally breaking the mold, both have been revived in retro form or share DNA with recent more popular models

the traction from these shoes is top notch. they provide really good ankle protection and manoeuverability when changing directions.
They do not provide good ankle protection 😂

The 2010's was the best era for sneakers. For me, the best were the Hyperdunk, but that's because I prefer higher kicks.
Nike should retro those 2011 hyperdunks!
I remember when people wore lebron 13s off court
@@jjcornelio7741 They already retro hyperdunk 2017, so hopefully one day
accidentally left my hyper dunks in a hotel room and they “couldn’t find them”
I wore my 2010 hyperdunks for damn near 6 years 🤣🤣 no tread just vibes
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.
That's just to not piss off volleyball purists. Many volleyball players openly wear basketball shoes. Aside from Kobe 6s I see KDs, Lebrons, and Currys on volleyball courts.
@@toskiemail1371surprised you didn’t say WoW… way better volleyball shoes than any of those
so u could buy the hyperattacks and itll work just as good for balling?

The KB6 was great. But the 9 is best for me.
I think some boxers even wore them in the ring.
I’m a nurse and I use 6 pair of Kobe 6 in rotation for work lol. Very comfortable arguably the best sneaker basketball shoe ever
Different colorways in all 6 pairs?
You gotta talk about the Huarache 2K4's too man! I know they weren't Kobe signature shoes but they became iconic because of him.
Really liked this video! Would love to see some more with signature basketball shoes (Air Jordan 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.)!!

You’re hundred percent correct and there’s studies to prove it

kobe 6s are my favorite shoes of all time period. so nice on the court and they look amazing and got so many classic colorways
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.
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
i think they’re more comfortable

My top 5 Kobes: 1. Kobe 6, 2. Kobe 8, 3. Kobe 5, 4. Crazy 8, 5. Kobe 11!
Whats your favorite colorway of the 6s?
No Kobe 9 is WILD
Kobe 9 is truly overrated. Clunky, stiff, heavy. Great traction and decent cushion. I got 2 bethovens and they are not good performers. Haven't tried 9 EM yet but it makes sense why they would create one.
Kobe 7s had crazy color ways too 2011/2012 but slept on
Kobe 8's are shit, even the protro
Remember hooping in Kobe 6 and Lebron 8 back in high school. I got the concord colorway first and later grabbed a pair of blue camo.

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.
@@bball3048mmfr Yea, that is the problem with Signature Shoes, they are made for a specific person then sold to the masses.

I remember the hate with first low top Kobes. 'Low tops for Bball, hell naw'. Look how far we got
The adidas Kobe 1 aka Audi TT shoes,where great basketball shoes,the grip was top notch.
I’ve bought a few Kobe 6 protros and they are by far the best basketball sneaker I’ve ever had.
1:48 how do you not know that😂😂
kobe 6s have the look, the comfortability, and the ankle support is better then most high tops, theyre the greatest basketball shoes oat
I got kobe 6 all star OG real other day and the grip is still better than any shoes ive ever wore before.
Kobe 9 were elite as well
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.

Damn man, suddenly I now want to buy a pair or Kobe 6 reverse grinch 🔥
I had the same blue camo ones when I was young, and man they were awesome. My favorite of all time for sure. We called them the avatars, because the movie released short before they dropped.
Ive owned a pair of 6’s as a teenager. The only shoe i preferred more when it comes to playing in them were my Freak 1’s
im really missing the hyperdunks highs or lows they were worn by big guards and big men
a pair of kb8 3s were sold on ebay recently for $400.. i was watching it for a few months.. i think they were underrated.. its a very rare pair and a good pair to add to any collection, adidas hasnt retroed it yet..
The OG hyperdunk was a straight game changer. The rereleases a couple years ago didn’t do them any justice. that original release was just different
It's kinda sad that kobe isn't alive to see how well his shoes have been doing these last couple of years
no its because of that reason that they are doing numbers on stockx, If he was still alive resell wouldnt be over 700
totally agree with you, Kobe 4 and Kobe 6 were the greatest of basketball shoes ever!
In the past, most of players love the Kobe 6. As a memory for Kobe Bryant, we will have Kobe 6 for remembrance for him. We will give respect for him after his Tragedy in 2020. Rest in peace, Kobe Bryant.

Herb Jones had like 50 different Kobe’s on this season he almost got a new every game same Witz Naji Marshall
wonder where they get them from
@@TheMilchBroetchen they both signed to Nike I think and I also think you can ask for all the shoes if so
I got my kobe 6 reverse grinches like 2 months ago. so happy with results
Respect and who can be against Kobe fr
Mamba Forever!! ❤
best I´ve played in are anta KT 7 and the Jhon Wall silver high tops
Reverse grinches are around $400 now. But the grinches? Different story 😂
i love the kobes but for the price i would like harder rubber on the outsole for extra durability
Is the reverse or camo better?
personally my favorite shoes are the lebron 20s and they remind me a lot of the kobes but the 6s are just unmatched
Kobe 6s are great shoes and personally I love the Italian Camo color choice
why do The Kobe look slighty like AE 1's
Adidas top 10 2000 is the best kobe shoes for me. Not really his signature but he wears it back in his early days.

RIP to the GOAT KOBE
Don’t quote me, but I remember hearing long ago that the Kobe 9s had the best traction of all time ( I never played in them tho)
tbh its mainly cause most of the leagues players are signed with nike and its the best option from nike other brands like li ning and anta make way better shoes imo but just have not nearly as much players signed
The Kobe 6 is my dream shoe. I really wish I could get a pair, but I don’t wanna give up both of my kidneys just to get a pair.
kobe 6 is very light and comfortable to wear
These shoes made me avg 8 pts a game way back in college coming off the bench with just final scores avg 30-40
best basketball shoe ever made
2:21 what you mean its like Harden vol 7
Probably one of the best basketball shoes on all time.Definitely a snickers you can wear off court ass well.
What jersey is that? The one you are wearing?
Way of Wade 808 is a game changer
Kobe 6 Was My Favorite Shoes To Ball In , I Wouldn’t Do It Now But Yeah , I Love Them On Battle Field 💯
2:50 The Kobe 1 was suppose to be the Air Flight Huarache.
"Ankle support" is what was hurting everyone ankles back in the days imo
They looks cool but i don’t like them
Can someone tell me the name of the shoe that amongst other PJ Dozier wears. The light blue adidas shoes?
harden vol 7, great shoe
@@mr.ore13 thanks👋👋👋
Q
Thats because 2024 is the year of the Mamba 🐍
Are the Kobe 6's actually lighter than the Kobe 5's?
Kobe X (10s) and KD 7s are most comfortable for me so far
The OG 6 are wide and good to play in, the protros are narrow and kills your feet.
How bout the Huarache 2k4s?
kobe 6 and kobe 8 are my favriouts
Everyone in they gym rocks Kobe’s wen they play ball
I don't understand it tbh. Because i only read things about the shoe breaking within 10 uses
This guy’s casualness about sneakers and his Zangief accent is wonderfully humorous and cringe😂
There was no need for the ankle rolling segment 😭😭😭
Personally think the XI are the best kobes ever made. They are so comfortable
I still have 12 pairs left from my old basketball days. Best shoe ever for me.
Then you have to use an ankle brace 🤷🏻.
Jordan 4s, 11s and most recently the Zion ones are the ones I enjoyed the most
Because people make trends. Just like we're still wearing Jordans from the 80s.
simple answer in tribute to the black mamba
Besides them looking sick as hell
kobe 4 5 6, goat of ball shoes
facts bro 👌
Yep I only see team sneakers, the brand a player belongs to. Or Kobe’s or Jordan’s
Also, you gotta be crazy bro for dissin the Adidas Kobe 3s...and the other 2 designs that followed, kudos to them for literally breaking the mold, both have been revived in retro form or share DNA with recent more popular models
I would like to support Euroleague players and buy Euroleague shoes.
Yo had the timelines wrong nor did you mention the hyperdunks which came out in 2008
Homie talked more bout all other shoes than wat the tittle says😅😅😅😅
Kyrie 7s black and white variant
Kobe 8 is the way to go
....hey man, DON'T FORGET THE FIRST KOBE, ADIDAS CRAZY 7 (1997)... I GOT THEM, FIRE BBALL SHOE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Kobe 6 and kobe 4 have so many PE. 🔥
I have a really bad heel balance…And Kobe signature shoes are not for me..
