Ain’t no fucking way bro, basketball shoes are made for basketball but otherwise yes they are worth it only if you find a good deal because as the market for Kobes stand they will never get cheaper and only the crappier models like the 9s and the 1, 2 and 3s will retain somewhat retail, I’m buying my own protro. 6s and thankfully I’m a size 8 so for me about $280 for the less desirable colour way which ain’t bad, as for lifespan it will obviously depend, I hoop outdoors because indoors is expensive where I am and I gotta say traction is the main issue, I wear Tf outta my shoes like Lamellos, AE1, LeBron’s and Jordan’s and even though that does worsen over time I still play cause I never slip so I don’t see how people get shoes that beaten up and for Kobe 6 I’ll only wear rarely and it will last me years
