Nike Zoom Kobe V Reviewed

So last night I decided to go play some hoops at the local YMCA to test out the new Zoom Kobe Vs. Just as reference, I usually wear the Zoom Kobe 3s to play outdoors, and the 2k4's to play indoors.

My first impressions of the shoe was pretty positive. It feels it has more bounce than the 3's and definitively more mobility than the 2k4s. Running in them is not strenuous and as the first time playing in a low-top in a long time, it didn't bother me at all. The shoe's lightness will surprise you at first, but after a while, your legs expect footwear to be that light. It might be tough to go back to a heavier shoe after this trial.

Weather stripping done

Started raining heavily this morning. I feel. Extremely lucky that I "accidently" solved my weather stripping issue on the passanger door on my 330i. Using a screw driver instead of a plastic tool (which is safer for the interior of your car) I carefully pried the plastic clippings to create room to push the weather stipping into it. This secures it in place, just like factory setting!

In the past, I secured the rubber piece with heavy duty. Double sided tape but it started getting messy when it melted in the car (hot California winters? I guess?)

Took me about 40 minutes to do one door but was well worth it. Starting to get to know this car a lot better now.

Nike Zoom Kobe V—copped



Well finally the better colorway for the Zoom Kobe V came out today and I had to go try on a pair. My first encounter with this incredibly lightweight shoe was in Las Vegas on Christmas day, when the Chaos colorway dropped. I went to the local Footlocker and was surprised to see it a bit empty. I thought there would be more buzz about this shoe, especially in LA; hopefully at House of Hoops Bev Center wink wink ;). Anyways, the product is amazingly light. Couldn't believe it registered near 11 ozs. Probably one of the lightest basketball shoes I've worn. More details later this week when I try them out at the local gym and get a few good games with them. Stay tuned.
