Rest peacefully to Kobe, GiGi, and the others who so tragically lost their lives. Praying for the families, loved ones, and everyone in mourning. So sad I can’t even put it into words. #MambaForever
As soon as you said that after 3 years of debating whether to finally get a pair,this pair definitely came to mind as a possibility.Glad that you've got yourself another pair.
Foams and Buckets...what up bros? Just watched your Kobe dedication vid and now this one. Love you guys and you're in my prayers. I've always had a love/hate thing with Kobe (on court, lol) but as soon as I'd heard what happened my heart dropped man. Like I lost family or a close friend. Just like Aaliyah and Nipsey Hussle...it didn't make a damn bit of sense. Foamer, you spoke a lot of truth on that dedication vid and can definitely feel how genuinely you guys' feel about Kobe. The fact that you're non-monetizing that vid is EVERYTHING. Nothing but love for you guys man. Be blessed and please stay this real forever #mambaforever... Oh! I've loved a few of Kobe entries over the years and definitely bought em. I had a black/graphite pair of the 2005 Hyperdunks. Had them shits forever and played hoops em a lot. Never fell apart. I now have a pair of signature 5s purple/black/graphite that were gifted and a pair of 11s (promo sample...light blue/white) But...my favorite pair to date that I bought and sold (like u did) was the OG Kobe AD (blue/infrared/yellow)...the ones that we first saw Demar Derozan playing in. Others I've recently come to love...Kobe 6s thru 10s...Any variation of colorway
Kaleb Sheehan trust me, when you have them you’ll love them bro. I’m just going to warn you ahead of time, your feet might hurt after wearing them for a long time but the sneaker is so iconic it’s worth it
I feel you on wearing your shoes. I got rid of everything I wasn't wearing years ago and now I rock all my kicks. Idc if it's 88s, Trav's, or a simple GR, they're getting laced and worn. I do keep them cleaned tho
I agree most comfortable Kobe ever, i regret not going for the Kobe’s on Christmas 2010 release day. I still have the Italian camo Kobe 6’s that also is an underrated colorway imo.
The Jordan 11 Breds have always been a sneaker I’ve wanted I finally ordered them the other day. I know they’re not crazy exclusive or anything like that but they are a classic and prob my favorite Jordan of all time.
I just picked up a pair of Questlove Nike Dunk Highs with the red velcro strap. Not something I had been hunting for as long as you had been hunting the Grinches, and definitely not as expensive. But early last year I passed on the opportunity to get em and regretted that moment. Happy for you and the Kobe 6's.
Hands down the greatest hoop shoe of all time. This shoe changed the way I felt about basketball shoes in general. The feeling I got when putting these shoes on for the first time has not been matched in 10 years. Nike needs to protro these with full length zoom! I’d cop every single color way
Nah man Foamie gotta do another video telling us how he felt after this and getting these jawnts again and what they he think they finna be worth/if he gonna rock them or not? And was today, truly a good day? Or did he call it too soon
This is crazy i just stumbled across this video and i waited 10 years since they came out to be able to buy them. In that time i fell in and out of love with sneakers. And during everything every now and then would search around online for my size and finally i bought them after now being able to afford them later in life. And the very next day the crash happened, it’s weird somehow shoes are a point of commonality for all of us. Best and prayers and love up for Vino and all who were aboard the plane that day. ♥️
The year where my love for sneakers started was way back 2011. The sneaker that started it all for me was the Hyperdunk 2011. They were minimal and have a “budget” model feel in them but I’ve always loved it! I used to play in them and now, it is my basis on choosing a perfect performance sneaker. The sneaker that I’ve been hunting for a very long time was the Hyperdunk 2011 Galaxy! I still don’t have them up to this date but those were just to fire for me. Those were my ultimate dream sneakers! 🔥🔥🔥
What a timing thing! I’m glad you get your grail. It’s very sad to lose our hero’s, people you grown up and admire. Rip Kobe and Gigi. Our heart and prayers are with you and the people who suffer this accident. And please sneaker community. It’s no time to abuse. I was trying to get a Kobe1 protro white/purple on Friday and today the seller says “he need to check if he can sell it at that price”
The most underrated channel ever! Amazing content guys! I love every video cause the quality is just unreal. So much better than some million sub channels! Keep it up guys❤️
Good looks man...I think you should have buckets do a video of where you are hooping handing out Ls. My grail that I’m hunting for the right price would be either the raging bull 5s or the bel airs
I played basketball and volleyball in these! It was cool to see the whole volleyball team have kobes at one point all different and some team edition ones! RIP Kobe
Congratulations my guy. Much deserved. Rest in paradise to Kobe. Prayers and thoughts to the families of all the people who's lives were lost. Thank you for the many memories. "Mamba Out"
I 🖤 ur channel foamer. In 2019 I sold 60 pairs all deadstock on stockx but everytime I buy a shoe off StockX theyr always used, clearly used shoes, maybe I just have bad luck
Foamie...Let me give you a little background, I bought a pair of Grinches off StockX last year and wore them twice (once in New Orleans and once at home in Philly) and the sole started to separate at the front. I damn near cried cause I paid a stack for them. Took them to a repair shop and got them fixed but I'll never wear them again. Two months later I was like fuck it and bought another pair from Stadium Goods and they seem to be holding up much better. I guess it's just luck and the fact that the shoe is damn near 10 years old. I love em to death and I'm like you...I WEAR MY SHIT!!! I can really appreciate somebody like you who does the same. PEACE
Bro this is spooky after the news because honestly this is the best kobe shoe of all time and if you a sneakerhead this is in your top 10 list easy. Rip to Kobe Bryant. The Greatest player of all time.
Had a question foamer. You say you wear your shoes which is cool cause I do the same. Do you clean them up after every use and do you ice the soles? Or do you just let them get yellow? Just wondering
My grails are the Nike Vandals. When I saw Terminator as a kid they looked so cool with the ankle straps and now I got a pair two years ago they are awsome shoes.
Nice pickup! Kobe’s definitely fit well. I only had 1 pair of Kobe’s but I never tried to hoop in them but they definitely made a perfect sneaker for work. My grail is the Doernbecher 4s which im going to cop this year and my holy grail is the Kawhi Leonard Pass The Torch Jordan 1s (that’s going to take a while)
Literally watched this the morning of before any news. Was gonna buy one of my grails the kobe ix philippines now they’re at $311, should have copped when they were still $250. Rip kb8/24
As a kid it was the playoff/bred 11, the yeezy zebra got me into collecting, and a grail for me was the Travis Scott Jordan 1. I am blessed to own them all for retail
crazy that this is your grail and you got/posted it on the day of his passing just crazy man life is so short RIP to one of the greatest that every did it
Been watching Kobe related content for the last few hours. Think I even deciphered the Braille on the right shoe but my all-time grail has to be the Jordan 11 Legend/Carolina Blue. I need 4 pairs if they rerelease and I'm not talking about the lows.
Was able to buy my grail shoe last year for under retail on StockX. I’ve always wanted a pair of Shadow Jordan 1s and I was able to get them. I definitely break them out every so often but I’m trynna make those bad boys last.
Bro, I feel the same way. Ive been going back and forth with these, and Dunk Low 'Jackie Robinson's 🤔🤔I'm doing it!! I have the mambacitas, so I feel like I NEEDDD these. Haha but NOT on stockx. I personally like GOAT better for a number of reasons. But stockx has them all day for pricing and details and layout 💯
my GRAIL which I have never seen mentioned in sneaker news ever is the Pink Dolphin X Puma black suede, covered in Japanese Pink Dolphin print. Would love to hear another opinion on these shoes, but I’ve kept them deadstock because the outsole is GORGEOUS and it would be a crime to walk on them. 🇨🇦 hope you see this man
Buckets sounded happy sounded happy with that “for sure” response. Lol.my grail is the Air Yeezy Red October. Was not into sneakers back than i jus copped from my best friend who was the sneaker plug 🔌 but in 2015 seeing what i missed years later. It was like the color, the texture, the design behind the air yeezy red October just touched my heart in some way. Jus wish i has the funds back in the day. Whole college refund check would of went to that. MAN OH MAN...for now it’s jus a dream.
Rest peacefully to Kobe, GiGi, and the others who so tragically lost their lives. Praying for the families, loved ones, and everyone in mourning. So sad I can’t even put it into words. #MambaForever
#MambaForever
Do a video of your favorite Kobe’s in memory 🤷🏻♂️
Rip Mamba 😞
#MambaForever
such a sad coincidence that you uploaded this video 5 hours before he died :(
Your a clown bro rs your clout chasing for video views with Kobe's name. Your a lame
Damn, this timing sucks. Rip to the goat
this was the first video i saw this morning and i made nothing of it. Yes timing is terrible... Black Mamba forever
RIP Kobe
😩 What a crazy world we are living in.
I instantly thought of this video after hearing the news. So crazy. Lost a legend.
rip Kobe 😞
It’s crazy how you posted this today and a few hours later he passed away. RIP The Black Mamba
Bruh I try not to even think about it because I get misty eyed 😕
Forgot all about these. Def worth it
Yeah crazy.. Just hours or minutes even 😕 I found out last night, (26th in Sweden) so damn tragic
I can’t believe I watched this video just to find out minutes later that Kobe actually died I will probably never forget this video RIP MAMBA
Maybe that why he buy them... Rip kobe...
@@campkira dude...he got them online. Kobe died yesterday.
@@nickj4785 it sucks. I love Kobe and have been meaning to add a couple pairs of Kobes along with my Js and other Nikes and now Kobes are like 3x
just realized that foamie looks like a slim action bronson
Damn I just heard Kobe Bryant passed today
Agree
Mad late
Pretty haunting this got uploaded on this day of all days. RIP to a legend
Kobe just died too. Crazy.
As soon as you said that after 3 years of debating whether to finally get a pair,this pair definitely came to mind as a possibility.Glad that you've got yourself another pair.
Congrats foamie, i hope everyone who sees this gets their grails.
Dropping 1.5k on Kobe's 6. Crazy how far these have come. Congratulations on the grail. Crazy green shoes have always been one of my weaknesses.
Trust me he didn’t pay that much. He got it for a reasonable price.
@@ChangeHumanity I was just going off the last size 13 that sold on StockX.
I went to StockX too to see how much! Lol
TWO GEEZ lol same
He was sponsered by stock x on this video probably got them for free..
Grinches are so beautiful. My sneaker grail are the OG Asics Kith Salmon Toes. Those are so hard to find. I need them!
Who here after info just got dropped that the the Kobe grinch 6 will retro in 2021!!!!!
Have these and love them, pulled the trigger 3 years ago and haven’t looked back twice.
RIP Kobe Bryant. The GOAT, The Legend
It’s crazy how all his shoes just sky rocketed in price due to his death smh just sad . R.I.P Kobe !
PyrexVision I mean its more sickening then anything
PyrexVision they definitely didn’t sky rocket in price 🤨
@@uhhkeanan3216 they did
Astro World I guess it depends on what shoe then because some are still at the og price
@@uhhkeanan3216 yes but the ones that are still at same price are actually selling now
That’s beautiful, you bought his shoes right before he passed away.
I knew EXACTLY what he had when I seen that Kobe logo in the thumbnail
Preach!
As soon as I saw the 6 box I was like it’s gotta be the grinches
Jordan 1 chicago is my holy grail that i cannot afford 😂
Foams and Buckets...what up bros? Just watched your Kobe dedication vid and now this one. Love you guys and you're in my prayers.

That instrumental in the background is so soothing bro. I love it.
Buckets’ opinion can never be undervalued quick, blunt to the point
RIP Kobe, his daughter, & the other passengers
Can’t wait to get my hands on those Witherspoons
Kaleb Sheehan trust me, when you have them you’ll love them bro. I’m just going to warn you ahead of time, your feet might hurt after wearing them for a long time but the sneaker is so iconic it’s worth it
Copped my cousins pair for 6 flat just keep your eyes out you’ll get em !
Size down! Half size down is safest but even full size down depending on how you like them to fit. They run big
The price is actually going down nowadays
@CJ aka DirtyBrit right in my feels haha
these just when up big time, too bad the reason sucks
I feel you on wearing your shoes. I got rid of everything I wasn't wearing years ago and now I rock all my kicks. Idc if it's 88s, Trav's, or a simple GR, they're getting laced and worn. I do keep them cleaned tho

Is crazy how you talking about these grails and hours later he's gone
I literally clicked on this video to get my mind off of today’s events. Still in shock. Rip mamba
Super happy for you to get your grails bruh!!! Those definitely break necks. Love the Grinch’s.
What kix are you rocking in the video? Them joints go hard

Love This One Bro,I can hear it in your tone you're truly lit about these!
Dang paying respect to the black mamba and his shoes on the day he happened to pass is surreal. Rest easy Kobe
Top 3 Kobe of all time no questions asked. Big on my grail list too. I want the original but also hoping to see Nike protro them. Dope pick up bro 👏

incredible shoe and timing on this video.....Rest in peace Kobe 😢
Hell I'd been waiting for you to finally get these....crazy the timing of this video ....man

Yo! This video has been in my head since Sunday! R.I.P. Kobe & Gianna 🐍🏀🏆🏆🏆🏆🏆
Your grail is somewhat close to mine. I've been hunting for Kobe 6 TB Grey and Royal blue. It's almost an unknown colorway. Very nice content.
Wow the timing of this is absolutely mind blowing
Unbelievable timing on this video. RIP Kobe and GiGi. Your presence is forever felt.
Good looks man...I think you should have buckets do a video of where you are hooping handing out Ls. My grail that I’m hunting for the right price would be either the raging bull 5s or the bel airs

Kobe venomenon 4 my fav. Had 3 pair. Foamer I'm sure you have sneaker guys and could have been had that shoe. What a time to find it now
Damn... seeing this after the news just hits different... R.I.P Kobe
Black and gold Reebok question. Had it wayyy back in the day, dropped a ton of buckets in these. Miss em
Original Cement Jordan 4’s are still my grail. As a kid I absolutely loved them, but couldn’t afford them. They still give me the feels... 😀
Had a few pairs of Kobe 6s, I’ve regretted passing on the grinches for a few years and especially after Kobe’s passing.
I love videos like this. Congrats!
Nice pickup! Kobe’s definitely fit well. I only had 1 pair of Kobe’s but I never tried to hoop in them but they definitely made a perfect sneaker for work.

Damn, the timing. Good for your behalf on getting your grail. Especially before the now greedy sellers raising prices to profit off Kobe death.
The timing was such a coincidence. This was a sign my brother. Rip to the Black Mamba.

Man your content is creat, I enjoy your videos so much, you guys are the best!! See you mañana at the workshop!!
Is it safe to hoop in shoes almost a decade old ? I’m always worried even when deadstock.
Glad you have them 🙏🏽
Congrats! No better feeling than getting exactly what you've always wanted...my grails are the Air Max 90 Lunar Landing 🚀🌚
Was able to buy my grail shoe last year for under retail on StockX. I’ve always wanted a pair of Shadow Jordan 1s and I was able to get them. I definitely break them out every so often but I’m trynna make those bad boys last.
I’ve been hunting a Clot Kiss of Death air max 1 for agessss! My size hasn’t been on stock x or goat for ages, but we keep looking👀👀
Bro, I feel the same way. Ive been going back and forth with these, and Dunk Low 'Jackie Robinson's 🤔🤔I'm doing it!! I have the mambacitas, so I feel like I NEEDDD these. Haha but NOT on stockx. I personally like GOAT better for a number of reasons. But stockx has them all day for pricing and details and layout 💯
my GRAIL which I have never seen mentioned in sneaker news ever is the Pink Dolphin X Puma black suede, covered in Japanese Pink Dolphin print. Would love to hear another opinion on these shoes, but I’ve kept them deadstock because the outsole is GORGEOUS and it would be a crime to walk on them.
🇨🇦 hope you see this man
Insane timing . Prices bout to go up
I was just watching your video this morning. Price just went up in StockX
When you opened the box it legit put a smile on my face. Congrats on the crazy cop!
Congrats on the grail! Easily my favorite Kobe period. My grail Dunk Hi SB Pro “FLOM”.
Buckets sounded happy sounded happy with that “for sure” response. Lol.my grail is the Air Yeezy Red October. Was not into sneakers back than i jus copped from my best friend who was the sneaker plug 🔌 but in 2015 seeing what i missed years later. It was like the color, the texture, the design behind the air yeezy red October just touched my heart in some way. Jus wish i has the funds back in the day. Whole college refund check would of went to that. MAN OH MAN...for now it’s jus a dream.
Congratulations on getting your Grail the greatest KOBE of all time in my opinion .
The Kobe 6 was a classic!!!!!
Rip Kobe 🙏
Aye I gotta pair too!!! Definitely a sneaker grail. Period. Also is the a Valentine’s Pink hoodie I spy 👀👀
I was gonna go to sleep but I got the notification and I had to watch...
Keeping shoe on ice is overrated, glad u got urs. Doubling up doesn’t exist for me unless ur gonna where the mess out of both
