Yo man I feel like you really hit your stride with the channel! I like the more chill format with your wife in the background and y’all having more of a conversational vibe going on. It’s dope man thanks for continually providing awesome content.
Hell yea! Kobe 6 is definitely my all time favorite go to shoe. Bought 4 pairs back in the day and cant wait for the protro. Only negative i have say is that the traction burns out very quickly. But until then you are golden
Really sad all the Kobe shoes went up crazy in price...was savin up for a pair of protro 1s. Wanted to get them as my first Kobe shoe because he is the reason I play basketball...it will still be worth the $300 minimum that they are now. They will be worth whatever they cost because Kobe was an absolute legend, and we will all miss him forever. #MambaOut
Kobe V Varsity red is my first ever shoe I ever bought with my own money. I was grade 6 that time
Looking forward to the Kobe V Protro if they ever come out with it, especially in the Black/White Del Sol colourway. One of my favourite shoes of all time.
Kobe 9. Traction is insane and design is great
I’m shocked! Thought the Protro was the best, but maybe because I’m biased about it. 😅
The only sneakers review channel that will give you real facts, sure knowledge, not opinionated and truly tested reviews also. Do what you do man. More powers!
One day when I get older (I’m in HS), I wanna cop the 1, 4, 5, 6, 9, and 11
Rocky Doggy keep working hard
Right, right there with you, Chris. Kobe 6 all day.
i wore my kobe 6s into the ground i swear by these!! i dont even know what they could do to protro those masterpieces
You got my sub dude. Keep it real 👍🏽 I have what I call the mint chocolate chip Kobe AD. So far it’s my favourite hooping shoe. Depending on how I wanna play I switch between those and my high top drose 5s. (Not really a guy that purchases too many ball shoes until I need to)
Great video man! I love your honesty, as always!! Also, Mrs. Nightwing is really "humble" at the end of the video lol
Top Humble is my middle name. 💁♀️😂
I got 2 kobe X's and i love them man. On and off the court. I have a Kobe XI draft day but i havent worn them yet. I just dont feel like playing with it because the sole can get dirty in a heartbeat.
My Kobe Mentality 2s creased and tore after just a few months of play. Great fitting and nice traction though.
Man the exodus is the best fitting shoes I’ve ever worn honest
Bro he said after death😥😥 rip Kobe
Please rank the Kyrie line
KOBE 6 PROTROS PLEASE! OR JUST RETRO THEM ALREADY!
Make Rubber Great Again 🙌🏼
tbh the cushioning and traction for the kobe ad mid is great but the upper material actually sucks
Can you review Iverson Legacy?
Now that kobe is gone will they still continue making his shoes?
Renzel David of course! don't worry about that
Vanessa gave Nike the green light so we should be able to buy them.
💛💜💛💜😢🤴🏽. A whole year later, he reached his exodus.... #KB824
Kobe 6,1,2
RIP KOBE
So your number 1 is no longer Kobe 9 but Kobe 6?
Kobe 7 ruined my feet so hard, blisters all over. stopped playing in them after 2 weeks of tearing down my skin.
rest in peace to a legend and to a legend in the making kobe and gigi will be missed
mamba forever ♾
That AD "after death" really does have a meaning now :/
man it really has
:(
I’d don’t mean after death but I’ll let you think that for sentimental value.
There's also a Kobe 6 'Helicopter' colorway. RIP Mamba, Mambacita, and the others who passed away
Word.thats crazy
R.I.P kobe Bryant.
Dear Kobe,
I started watching you as soon as you hit the league. I watched you dominate the league. I watched you get RINGS in the league. I watched you get hurt in the league. I watched you bounce back better than ever in the league. I watched you leave the league. Then, I watched you get an Oscar out of the league. I watched you be a GREAT father, husband and a teacher. Just by watching you throughout your career I've learned soooooo much. To that I say..... THANK YOU KOBE, FOR EVERYTHING! #Mamba #Lakers #GOAT
R.I.P....... TO ALL THAT PAST AWAY IN THE ACCIDENT. LOVE!💜💛
This is so wholesome.
Kobe 4 - game changer
Kobe 6 - best overall
Kobe 8 - best minimal b-ball shoe
Kobe 9 - best traction
Kobe NXT 360 - best cushion (React) and minimal
Fax💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Kobe 5?
How about the Kobe 5
Thanks for watching! Let us know what your favorite Kobe is to hoop in. And of course, what's your least favorite?
Fav 6s, least prob AD or 10
If I remember correctly I think Kobe #3 released around one of the Spider-Man movie Kobe wanted his shoe to fit 1 of 1 like Spider-Man Suit. Also the commercial wear genius the foot statue with Terry Crew's. I always wanted them as well
Ive had 6s before and yes you do need some time to break them in. I love kobe 8s, they are just something else man. Traction is crazy good, lightweight, cushion is awesome. Just love everything about it.
Kobe 4 for me. Excellent cushion, great lockdown, great traction. Surprisingly, my number two is the Kobe 11. I didn’t have any issues with the traction and holy fuck is that a supportive shoe.
The 4’s are my Fav, best all round sneaker! Great video 👍
Agree. 6 and 8 is my all time favorite. Copped my Protro last week but haven't got a chance to break them in. Appreciate all this man...
RIP Kobe Bean Bryant 🐐
Kobe 6s 👌
The NXT 360s are incredible...but I wish they used Zoom air instead of React for the cushion. Traction and durability have not been an issue in the year that I've had them.
I agree. The Kobe line is amazing. Loved my 5, 6, 10, and 11’s. Excited for the 4 protro. 👌🏽
I agree with everything you said about the Kobe line. All the later models are shit basically with the exception of the 9's. The best Kobe's were the 5 through 1. The other thing that's weird is that the Kobe's went from a heavy duty boot like sneaker to slippers!! My favorite Kobe's are the 1's hands down!
Thank you for everything and rest in peace Kobe and Gigi.
1. Kobe 8
2a. Kobe 6
2b. Kobe 9
4. Protro 1
Suuuper curious/excited for the Protro 4's. It's gonna shuffle my top 5 around for sure.
My best bball shoe was my Kobe AD Exodus, the grip was tight, the uppers were damn supportive, and shit it felt like it was a part of my feet.
Personally ( i haven’t hooped in Kobe 6 so cant speak on it ) the Kobe 8 is my favorite. I have 8-11 and I’d go 8-11-9-10. In that order. I think 8 has best traction and feel while being stupid light. 11 i think is underrated. Just a beauty and new era version. 9 has nasty traction can’t lie but i hate the cushion so much.
It's awesome to have a girl with sneaker knowledge!
I hated playing in the 2s so bad I gave them away to a friend. No ventilation and gave me rash. I bought my younger bro one and he is still playing ball in them after all these years. He loves it but he is a high jumper while I am not. Haha shows how shoes are different for different people even brothers.
It’s his go to shoe even as a dad with 2 kids haha...I was trying to buy him a new pair as a gift but he refuse to get rid of his pair of 2s haha
now you cant get any kobes bc all the resellers bought em out to profit off his death
Might be tha most honest UA-camr EVER-BIG Facts!!
Kobe 11 and 6 are the only signature Kobe’s I’ve owned. I think this list severely underrates the 11 elite. The Kobe 11 elite is the best basketball shoe I have ever owned imo and I have a translucent outsole too lol.
The 6 is the other pair I owned and those were very good shoes but the inside wore down on me and that heel cup started coming through the shoe. I think the 11 elite is just better for durability and cushion.
Personally I don’t think there is a better shoe ever made than the Kobe 11 for my feet but it depends on what you like.
1 kobe 9 elite high
2 kobe 11 elite
3 kobe 1 protro
4 kobe 8 super hero
5 kobe 4
DUMPTRUCK 77 we the same.
The Kobe 1 will always be my favorite for looks and performance, I've had 2 pairs of the originals and they were best I've ever played in. I now have the Protro but haven't played in them yet but the Kobe 1 will always be my favorite sneaker to play in.
I played in the 2’s and 3’s and I think the 3’s are waaaaay better than the 2’s performance wise. More comfortable and lighter weight.
Yeah the Kobe AD's are garbage, love the colorway but that's it! Very misleading zoom air unit would piss me off if I discovered it after I bought them. The flyknit NXT?? Yeah those are expensive house shoes I wouldn't even walk near a basketball court with those on my feet. The Kobe 5's are awesome though and yes the one's will always be my favorite Kobe's hands down! The funny thing about people complaining about how heavy a sneaker is it's kinda horse shit! Heavy or not people go over board with how much a shoe weighs! It's not like your going to long jump in them where weight actually matters lol
84 pairs of the Kobe VI since they hit. I’ve never played in anything else since. Best shoe ever made for my foot. Have you found anything that you can put on par with them in a low top? I’m still buying them used whenever I find them on EBay at a fair price.
The Kobe 6 is the greatest hoop shoe of all time.
Kobe 8
Kobe 6
Kobe 11
Can’t wait for the retro 4s
Peep my Collection brah
Just started this you tube thang
Respect
Kobe 4ever
kyrie line been my go to, but the kobe 9's are my favourite all time. i got rid of all my kyries and been growing my mamba collection, just picked up the 4 protro's (undftd black mamba colorway) and the traction sucks :/ on dusty courts any way
kobe 4 and 5 are my top 2. Best looking and performing kobe shoes ever!!!
My top 3 Kobe's of all time.
1. 9 em
2. 11 em
3. 8
omg my father got me a Kobe 6 when I was in high school and I love everything about it. The first time I played in those i slipped as hell but it performed so nice that I never found anything that can beat it (maybe harden 1 is close )I like Kobe so much and I like Kobe shoes so much. Goat for sneaker man
Another solid video, man. Seeing you look back on these shoes recently has made me realize how long you've been at this and been putting out solid content. Would also love to see a Lebron video like this. Keep up the great work!🤙🏽
So sad they are not doing protro for the kobe 2s. I played in one of the 3 versions when they came out, the upper was stiff but once broken in it was actually more flexible than the kobe 1s. The one I had retroed in the fade to black pack and prelude pack was the Ultimate with 1 velcro. The Strength had 2 velcros and the Lite had none.
Back in the days all my sneakers were done too quickly as I mostly played outdoors. It was the only option in China as gyms are rarely open to public. When they are open it would be too hot in the summer with no AC. We used to hoop on asphalt and during summer it would get so hot that I felt the asphalt was softening my landings... Or maybe I was just too dehydrated and hallucinated.
My personal favorite in the line is the 8s, especially the superhero green ones. The regular lunar ones like the christmas are good but at that time lunar bottoms out kinda quick, and I was also a lot heavier... Not an ideal combination. The scaled ones were bad, like I cannot even look at them bad. To me they were the worst-looking kobes followed by the kobe 6&11 3d, for similar reasons.
The ad mid would probably be the worse for me performance-wise, out of all pairs I have tried on. I did not get them as they fitted my narrow feet really poorly being slightly short and wide. But my friend found them to fit very well. And the cushion set up also happen to be great for her. People have differently shaped feet and different shoes fit different people. My two best friends have complete opposite feet types with me and we tend to like complete different shoes. We are still friends and we would suggest shoes to each other all the time.
I feel like if you put full length zoom in the Kobe 4 it would’ve worked better...
Oh wait, remember how Nike was gonna do that...
No
I have the Kobe 11 right now. but i I.D.'d them so i was able to get a solid rubber out sole with full length zoom. Traction is great!! i also had the original Kobe 1's. They were crap! no arch support, out sole got hard quick and the leather tore up pretty quick. So if the Protro's are anything like the originals, no thank you.
5,6,8,9 and NXT.. any of those is all ill ever need to hoop happily (never had the 4)
Kobe 6 is definitely the best Kobe shoe... I had the black gray gold an white ones shots were hard.
My Favorites Was The Kobe 9 Elite High And They Were The Best Basketball Shoe To Hoop In back In 14-15 And Had The Best Damn Traction Ever. The Engineering Mesh Version had It Too. And The Low Elite And High Elite. So That's My Best Kobe Sneaker.
I had the Kobe 10 EM’s and I actually liked them quite a bit. Traction was good and they were super comfy even though they were a half size small at the time
kobe 6 is my GOAT bball shoe too. disgusting once you break them in.
Jordan has better overall shoes
disgusting in good or bad???
@@tjjohal3375 true the 6 Rings are hands down the Ultimate wide footer shoe!
Bemmy he just said it’s his GOAT shoe. Figure it out
Dubai Was Lit What?
I only ever hooped in one pair of kobes and they were a pair of the suede year of the snake 8s in freshman year of highschool and they were the best hoop shoe i ever had and hooped in (In my area there is no indoor gym unless its at a school so when i bought casual shoes i also hooped in them so what i wore majority of the time is retro nikes or trainers)
Nike Kobe 4 Proto Snake and the Adidas Kobe 1 are my favorite Kobe Shoes.
I had a pair of both of these when I played Mens League Ball and they were comfortable and looked great.
What more can a guy ask for in a shoe .
Can we do the same with LeBron line ?
NW starts playing in LeBron’s shoes starting with the 7 so half his list wouldn’t be very helpful.
@@WearTesters If I had to base it strictly off performance for myself then
1.LeBron 16
2.LeBron 11
3.LeBron 10
4.LeBron 9
5.LeBron 15
6.Air Zoom Generation
7.LeBron 8

16.LeBron 13
Feel free to get on that and send them over.
WearTesters Could NW do it with the DRose line? Since he has played in every single shoe
@@Dann4751 He could. He missed the 1 and 1.5, but if the 1.5 Retro comes to the US then that would be great.
I play a ton of Basketball. cool video. rip kobe
Yes u said it I came up on leather shoes I really can't rock these shoes I play in retro basketball shoes because that's all I played in back in the late 80s to my senior year of high school 1994 all different brands and converse had a lot of models to so I'm Happy u said that you can play in leather shoes
First pair of Kobe signature shoes i bought were the KB8 Crazy 8s by Adidas and those were so comfortable and durable. still have them to this day. RIP Mamba.
The kobe 6 is also my favorite Kobe of all time, great minds
💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥
I hope Kobe had seen this ☹
The Kobe 9s hands down the best basketball shoe I ever played in everything about that shoe is Great. Nike bring that shoe back please
I really hope they make the 6 protro available to everyone that wants it. The people who buy them up and then resell them really ruin it for everyone else who actually want to play in them.
Kobe 4 was the best bball shoes ever, super comfy, kobe 6 was dope too, then Kobe 1 cause I like low top more.
The kobe 6’s are definitely THE BEST!! I got 6 colorways. Hope they would retro soon coz I’ll buy them again.
I like the 7 I'm not mad at u 😁😁 but keep rocking them nice hoodies love your videos keep it up and I like how u got your wife more involved in your videos
I’ve tried all the Kobe since the Kobe 5, all the way to the AD Mid. Gotta say, you’re right! THE KOBE LINE IS THE MOST CONSISTENT.
Yes. Kobe 6 is also my all time fav hoop shoe. Love these Real Talk series. Keep up the great work!
Kobe 1,2,3,4,5,6 amazing shoes!!! My favorite is the kobe 3 especially outdoors kobe 3 is the best👌hope they bring it back!!!
How’s the cushioning , fit , lockdown and traction for the Kobe 3?? I’m trying to buy one lol
Your sentiment about Kobe and his shoes are how I feel about Lebron and his shoes. Not a fan, but love the shoes.
The kobe 6 is my fav kobe all time, I had like 5 pairs of thoes and love them to death! great video!
Kobe 6 all day!!
7 and 8 are my favorites. Those are the Kobes I would wear even off the court.
The Kobe 9s traction is the greatest traction I've ever had on any basketball shoe I've played in. Just beats out the 8 for me. I still think the 8 was the best looking Kobe though.
9's are the best. Had 15 pairs 🔥🐍
Great vid as always, I personally like how kobe 2's looks on feet, with cargo shorts, 🔥
I smiled when the Kobe 8 came up. Not only was that the shoe to get me back into basketball after over a decade, it was when I first found Nightwing's reviews. The shoes came out December 2012 and I've been hooping consistently since January 2013.
Kobe 6 is the most beautiful Kobe shoe ever made especially the chaos edition.
Real talk 🤘🏻
Kobe 7 is very underrated. To this day...it’s the only shoe I can feel the zoom with every step.
Kobe 6 for the win!!!!! My favorite hoop shoe of all time. If Nike does a protro of them with full length zoom, I’m buying a shit load of them lol
Ive had both the kobe 11s (elite and em) and the ad nxts, but overall I enjoyed playing the 11 ems much more. My feet felt great and it had AMAZING traction and support. I wish I bought more of the EM's while they were still avalible!
I know this sounds a bit ridiculous, but i hope Nike does Kobe fans a solid and release the Huarache 2k4/2k5 and the original Hyperdunk with Kobe's logo... Even better make them into Proto's. If Jordan Brand can do it, they should do the same with Kobe's line. They might not bare his name, but Kobe is the first player i think of when it comes to those models specifically.
Kobe 9
Kobe 5
Kobe 8
Kobe 4
Kobe 1
Kobe 6
I’ve hopped in the Venomenom 9’s and the Protro 1’s. I use the Venomenom 9’s more because I wear my Protro’s casually. Love your channel and your laid back approach. You’re super knowledgeable not just about the history of the shoes but the design, fabric, ect. Keep up the good work!
ELITE HIGHT CUT KOBE X's !!! By far the best shoes I've ever worn. Maybe the best ball shoes ever made. No breaking in, tight fit, best support ever, light weight, some say they are ugly. I think they're rad... :)
