'GC' means Greater China, that is the release overseas and the traction is made more for outdoor play. If you go to a footlocker, or the online store, it will say Kobe 8 System. The System is made for basketball (indoor).

really like the idea that nike went out to make an outdoor version (not talking about the EXT ones) with XDR soles. Lets us use these shoes in outdoor conditions :D

its because only the GC have the complete logo on the heel given that they are indicative of an XDR model, in other words, if it has a complete logo in the back, its an XDR model

I just learned this: GC = Great China, the only differences between these and what we get here in NA are these have full Kobe logo on the heel plus XDR rubber outsole.

Interesting theory. Go on Nike ID and you will see the complete logo when designing state side. I personally wouldn't select the XDR sole. Also I won't have confirmation on mine until a few more days. Ended up placing my 2nd K8 ID order just now. Impulse + Addiction = SMH

Man I'm so jealous right now, they aren't going to be releasing these in GS. Easily the best shoe of the year so far imo, I might have to wear like 3 pairs of socks and go up to mens lol. Anyway, glad you liked your wallets! PS: The colors are port wine, pure platinum, team red, and bright crimson.

This is the dopest Kobe8 colorway to date! I was just about to ID my second pair, but these are slowing my role. Nightwing maybe you can answer this; why are there some Kobe8s with the complete logo on the heel? I'd much rather prefer that than being prompted to buy the puzzle fitting socks.

Great review as always man. Been awhile since i've hit you up but haven't missed a vid yet. Can't wait to get the KB8's, just haven't released a colorway I really like yet. I did try them on, and they feel ridiculous! Probably better than the 4 and 5 except maybe the traction....Keep it up and great job as always homie. Peace!

Hi there! i am about to purchase kobe 8 in this colorway. but you mentioned about the traction pattern differences for GC version and US version, one is good indoor and one for outdoor, question is, does it mean GC version will be slippery indoor or is it a plus having the GC version so can use both indoor outdoor with great traction?
