This has been a pretty hectic week for the Arch X Housakicks AHN network; we are dealing with a gang of returns from customers who don’t seem to know their shoe sizes. Today alone, I have received three returns request and each read the same ( too small, too large). Every now and then , I glance through my Instagram feed just to see what brands are concocting; today what seems like a “What The Nike Kobe AD” shoes caught my attention.
The “What The Collection” originally started with the What The Dunk ( a shoe that features all the Nike Sb’s that were ever released). They were welcome with a lot of enthusiasm and sold out instantly; ever since then, Nike has tried to replicate the same idea with their basketball shoes and Jordan Retros. Some of their most successful releases were the ” What The Kobe 7 & 8“, the “What the KD 5” and the “What The Lebron 10“. But the problem is Nike sometimes doesn’t know when to stop milking a concept; last year’s edition of the What the lebron, Kd and kobe were atrocious and did horrible sales wise.
The What the Nike kobe AD is covered in a myriad of colors and features a combination of mesh and flywire. The only images that emerged were from Pinoe77 IG, so I’m not even sure if these will eventually release officially. If you are interested in the Nike Kobe AD , you can watch the video below for further details.
For those still interested in the Kobe AD precision and the black/ white edition, refer to our featured ebay seller’s links below
It doesn’t make sense to release a Kobe AD What The… I don’t think this is real. If it is maybe it’s a Mardi Gras for the NBA All Star Weekend. Remember the NOLA Pack from All Star Weekend? That was called the Gumbo, so maybe they are going to go with a Mardi Gras theme and DeRozan will wear these.
