    I remember waking up in 2011 waiting for yall to drop knowledge on some hoop kicks. I modeled my shooting and dribbling after Tre and my attacking and mid range from you Jay. For me it started with the KD 4 and I’ve been here ever since. Keep grinding and thru the adversity, keep your head high. Love from an OG fan 💯

    These were my favorite hoop shoes ever. I'm glad they're protroing them. Early pics of the protro's also looks like they made improvements, specifically to the tongue. It looks to be a padded tongue now, instead of just the thin fuse tongue back then.

    I feel that way about the lebron 20s
    Closest interms of looks, performance to a kobe. Copping as much colorways I can. Vanessa renewed the contract but with the resale market you can't get pair for retail or a reasonable price. That's why I'm going ham on these 20s.

    Ok I legit stopped at the python colorway I said please don’t let this man switch into another colorway of my favorite shoe, and then he switches to my favorite joints, the pythons 🐍. It was at this moment I had realized that I was going to hate on this man not because it’s in my nature to hate but because I only have two colorways of the Kobe 8 systems. Yes I am ashamed to say I was going to hate on him so hard until he knew what it was like to own only two pairs of my favorite shoe. As a great character from one of the funniest shows ever to be aired name thug nasty would say “I’ll hate on ***** until he ain’t got S*** just like me”
