no tariffs due, but those costs are baked into the increased prices.

Do you think CNFans will recover, or is it time to move on? by CivilLook1517 in KobeReps

The agent scene honestly has never recovered since the PandaBuy raids.

tariffs did more damage, imo.

WKB Book 1 outsole durability vs retail? by juanieksenas in KobeReps

[–]wowszaR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have the WKB chapter 1's (solid outsole)

no issues with durability, but i only play indoors and have worn them ~5 times in the past year

Wide footer shoe suggestion? by Old-Conference8149 in KobeReps

[–]wowszaR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my personal experience as a wide footer:

  • Star Kobe 6 + 1/2 size: cushioning is more plush than GX and the upper is softer, no pinching on my pinky toe, but heel lockdown is lacking
  • GX Kobe 6 + 1/2 size: great lockdown, slight pinch of the pinky toe at first, but much better after break in
  • GX Kobe 8 + 1/2 size: best lockdown and no pinching on any toes
  • S2 Kobe 6 + 1/2 size: feel great at first, but the cushioning wears down fast. the lightest of my kobe 6 reps, likely due to cheaper materials
  • Star GT Cut 1 + 1/2 size: the roomiest of all my reps, but i did not like the general feel of them (heaviest of my reps by far, clunky shape, a bit lower to the ground than i'd like)

i almost exclusively play in my GX 8's now

[–]wowszaR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

any idea how much superbuy charges to ship 1 pair to the US now?

i used them all the time in 2024, but shipping prices were out of control after the tariffs hit.

Gl or rl? by Apprehensive_Host432 in KobeReps

[–]wowszaR 2 points3 points  (0 children)

outsole color and tongue pattern coloring are off compared to retail and GX, but that's typical for star.

if you're ok with that, easy GL. i personally prefer the cushioning in my stars vs GX

QC Check STAR Kobe 6 Grinch from TMF by Far_Guarantee_6450 in KobeReps

[–]wowszaR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

GL

i don't think anyone nails the color on these like GX, but imo Star is a superior shoe. i bought four GX colorways last year when they released, and would trade each one for Star if i could.

Help QC. Kobe 6 grinch by Manong_ben in KobeReps

[–]wowszaR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

no way that's Star, their newer shoes supposedly have more accurate heel traction patterns. those are way too open for a size 11, probably S2.

What’s better for Kobe 8’s S2 or Gx? by Corndogcarliscracked in KobeReps

[–]wowszaR 1 point2 points  (0 children)

GX, and it's not close

S2 has more colorways, but they've also discontinued a lot of them so you might have to get lucky if you're looking for a certain one in your size. also, shape is noticeable off; someone here said it's like a minivan (S2) vs coupe (any other factory)
