How do you like the away gradients but not the venoms sir? Or have the Venoms grown on you yet? 
Indeed those away gradients look good, SOOO Damn similar to both the away finals and the Venoms but they look good nonetheless. Cop? Yay, nay? Damn this culture  (drama faces)
Just in case I decide to cop, can some one repeat RD and release type on those away gradients for what I'm sure will be the millionth time

here's how i think of it....kobe's not gonna play ball forever, he's bound to retire sooner or later, and i doubt nike will continue to put out kobe's after he retires (but they might).......so since he's by far my favorite player, i'm basically buying og's to last me the rest of my life.....holding my shoe size as a constant...... .

the homes have started to drop at NTs (LA and CHI) but an official release date is not out yet. Swoosh will probably get these

you beat me to it  , but he's right just got a text from my friend that the Home Gradients dropped today at NTLA,
so I'm going to stop by tomorrow unless my local Footlocker has them.

The Venoms still don't do a think for me. The only "cool" thing about that shoe for me is the purple to black transition on the toe, that's it. Other than that they are whatever to me. If I found them for retail don't get me wrong I'd buy them, wear them to ball and beat them up in the process. Away gradient's for me have the fading purple to black from the back, the true gold swoosh, reptile patent leather, which to me outdoes the venom.

Nice pickups on the 4rings everyone. But I'm passing on gradients and 4rings. I did cop the ring shirt tho. Too fire to pass. Four finger hand on the sleeve is pretty clever. Got the yellow one but planning on the purple too. What I know is the championship CW. Any info?

don't compare the venoms to rodney, they will never be the same

I hear you Sarteaga. Materials and color placement--the ONLY two things that differentiate this sneaker from the Venoms so it makes sense that you can like these and not the Venoms. Either pair would go nicely with your venom bag lol
And good point Koop, I'm interested to see how accurately Nike retroes the Kobe line. I didn't have all the OG JO's so I can't truly compare the OGs to the retroes but with the Kobe's I'll be able to tell. I'll have a nice tribute to the lineage as well

I went ahead and ordered the away gradients as well, with coupon code GIFT for free ground shipping. I don't like the reports I've been hearing about them being limited GR.
