Yeah, the various sizes of scales were throwing me off when I spotted these in a thrift store. (I never saw these in person...I wasnt sure!) But saw this is "normal." comparing this find and pictures...videos. Everything looked actually pretty darn good..... BUT, still finding these, in amazing condition (no box - a red flag, especially a hard to find pretty recent release)..I was optimistic, but cautious. Eh, I did a few legit checks...nope, they did not pass. Ah well. * For the record, I have found & picked up some awesome finds at the same thrift store near me...and others. All legit sneakers * These Kobe's....not one of them! ☹
Im mad these lasted 3 months before the snake scale pattern wore off on the top and toe box and i dont even use them to ball they just completely worn off and now it just look fuzzy. 1/10
@@ericsss24 The Width. The length and toes for Kobes are always consistent for me in TTS, but those sides/Width on Size 11.5 is what tighter than my Size 12
@@bigdre824 many thanks for the reply it helps ! Quick poll : do you call your TTS you size on brannock device or just your to go size for Nike Bball shoes ?
@@ericsss24 I'd say the former,TTS meaning what my foot would measure to be on the brannock device. Like I always say that I am Size 11.5, but with Jordan 1s, 5s, and 6s, I can wear a Size 11 comfortably. But I have to get Size 11.5 with Dunks, Jordan 3s and Jordan 4s. With Kobes, I can squeeze into Size 11.5 with most of the OGs, but with Protros, it seems that Size 12 is best for me for casual. To ball in, I stick with Size 11.5 in Kobe Protros
Good review I don’t care for them I passed I got the jersey I’m going to frame and put over my OG Kobe collection..my next cop is Italian camos in April my OGs are cooked I needed up hooping outside in them and turning them into summer work shoes 🤣 I had OG draft day 4s and the soles fell clean off them
Aint worth it. If these aint hyped, i still rather get the all city 12s or a harden 7s to play in than these as they didn't upgrade the cushion. They just want this cus it's a kobe
More probably. Got mine for 350. They had a limited release too so they won’t always be on resale. Then again the other models they release will be dope too so the price might drop.

I agree that these Kobe 4s fit tighter than past Kobe 4 Protros. I went up half size on my second pair
@bigdre824 When u say it fit tighter than the other colorways, it’s about the lenght or the width ? Or something else ? Thanks ! 🙏🏼

@@bigdre824 Thanks so much for these details, trust me it is hard to find accurate sizing advice for 4s .. Have a great day !
THEY LOOK SICK 🔥🤩
Hey is the box smooth or is it the the same as the reverse grinch box where it has scales?
Did u watch the video😂
Dude I went resale on these after losing to all raffles . I have to say its worth the price specially since its my first Kobes
How is the sizing
@@nappy29terr51 its like what DG said, 0.5 up if you have a wide foot
Not resale bro😂
How the sizing? Did you go up, down, or true to size?
@@deykno87they’re just coping. Just feeding into the issue
i paid over $400 and i dont care
edit: i literally dont care to go for raffles bc i dont believe them. the shoe should just be released
Good review I don’t care for them I passed I got the jersey I’m going to frame and put over my OG Kobe collection..my next cop is Italian camos in April my OGs are cooked I needed up hooping outside in them and turning them into summer work shoes 🤣 I had OG draft day 4s and the soles fell clean off them
Would you say going with the same size you went in the Kobe 6 Protro?
Mine are coming tmw I can’t wait
I hated these at first but I dig them now (not paying insane amounts) but I respect them
Aint worth it. If these aint hyped, i still rather get the all city 12s or a harden 7s to play in than these as they didn't upgrade the cushion. They just want this cus it's a kobe
Hey bro I'm trying to check my shoes could you let me know what color are the stitching on your pair
I will coming to your page from now on for size recommendations, were the same size literally 10.5-11
Where should I buy a pair? StockX? GOAT? Need to get these ASAP
Ebay
Does it have a drop in midsole?
Thank you very much for the vidéo ! Is 10.5 your TTS or it’s already +0.5 sized ?
He's 10.5 TTS
What’s about the Kobe 11?😭 those are 🔥🔥😭
Sooo fire
Should I get these or the Kobe 8 Venice beach
yoooo
Better than my GIGI's...😭🤩😭
Is it? Gigi 4 or this better ?
Thanks
Both are not good imo very gimmicky they keep trying to profit off her name
Where you think these will be in 5 years? Price wise
More probably. Got mine for 350. They had a limited release too so they won’t always be on resale. Then again the other models they release will be dope too so the price might drop.
