Just in case you were living under a rock all this time, the latest Kobe 9 Elite colorway dropped yesterday. Pairs were hard to come by (and more or less expect the same with all the other Kobe 9 Elite releases this year) and you’ll be lucky enough to find a pair today. But for those desperately looking for a pair, hit up the Nike stores or Titan for the Kobe 9 Elite ‘Perspective’ and pray to the sneaker gods they still have a pair lying around somewhere. I didn’t really have to announce that the shoe was coming out. If you’re really crazy about the shoe, you’re sure to find out about it one way or another. I was going over Titan’s Instagram account and it’s really funny how people are looking to trade a pair or selling the pair with a slight markup. Let’s not get ahead of ourselves and say it’s about the law of supply and demand. If you want to stay in the game, hook someone up by giving the pair at retail. Karma goes a long way and helping out another is a step towards that.

Expect the same fanfare for the next set of colorways for the Kobe 9 Elite. Just make sure to follow your favorite sneaker stores for the latest release.
