I started out with GK, and that's where I'm staying at. I still like the batch comparison videos. If GK made every colorway: GAME OVER. In my humble opinion...🙏
I can't really compare it accurately to any other Kobe 6 that I had. I had some WKB 8s that had some really stiff uppers, but those caused alot of pinching whereas the GX didn't have pinching but still felt stiff, robust, harder to bend and push around compared to GK.
To be fair yes GK is a overall better batch but GX has two awesome color ways that GK has not made that is the 1. Orange County and 2. Rice colorway. Kvegaskicks the UA-camr showed a great video them and said the Gx is superior with those two in particular. GK is good for just the standard protros/rerelease color ways. The only shoes I personally would buy in Kobe 6 is 1.GK 2.S2 3.GX (only because of the two limited colorways)
I appreciate you made a performance comparison video on GK vs GX. I have ordered a GX Reverse Grinch and it should arrive today. I always wonder how stiff does the GX upper because people always point that out. It does look stiff when you pressed down the upper compared to GK where it looks more malleable I guess. My question is about the GK, do you feel the zoom turbo protrudes up? And did you feel the GX cushion still gives you impact protection despite the cushion being so stiff to start?
About the zoom protuding on the GK, I didn't feel it protrude much, maybe just a tad. Felt like they were better implemented here compared to some of my other shoes (one of my 5s notably). I suppose the protruding feeling is also affected more and more as the cushion around the zoom bottoms out over a longer period of time. As for the GX impact protection, yes it does still protect but the fall-down won't feel as plush as the GK but also doesn't feel like a brick wall.

For sure, wish they were more steady in the colorway output department
@@TopMadeMacDo these reps have carbon plate?
@@MarcVincentNilo Yes they do. Both have glass infused carbon fiber plate, exactly the same as Retail
which one would you recommend for a lightweight vball spiker who plays in a slippery court: GK 6s, GX 6s, GK 5s? tysm and dope review
I responded to your other comment but GK 6s is my pick
A lot of people said gx has stiff upper material, i wonder how stiff is that? Any comparison to describe it with other shoe for how stiff it is?

Correct, GX has some really good colorways. I just prefer GK for playing

@@TopMadeMac last question, can you feel the zoom turbo on the GX version?
@@patrickgarcia4739 Yes, I could feel the zoom but it’s not as pronounced
@@TopMadeMac Thank you! I just subscribed to your channel
