No disrespect to the gawd but anybody stopped rockin Js for whatever reason, :mjpls:off the court issues you may have with MJ-e.g. chamillionaire, hypebeast prevalence, :trash:design, or just too :flabbynsick: (if that's possible)?

Stopped rockin Jordans since 2001.

I don't wear jordans to be in competition with others..

so jordans being "old news"dosent apply...

most people who buy 700$ phones isn't buying them for business purposes...those would be the ones to most likely have an issue..

Your in the minority..:ehh:
Even if not for business. Most people(suckas who but the same shoe over and over even sthe same colors) who buy jordans have them for the sole purpose of having the new jordan. Your in the minority also..:ehh:
Jordans have a better resale value than than most phones.

People been saying this for years but, it's hard for me to see Jordans go anywhere anytime soon.
Comparing jordans to smart phones is laughable. I can send emails all the way to actually running a business from my phone.

jordans cost what they do cause i ignorant people(i was also one awhile ago).

Are you saying jordans are more valuable than a computer in you pocket cause hype beast sleep on the street for them?

I stopped buying jordans ince i realized what was going on. This promise of better materials happened before but guess what they didnt improve anything but still raised the price. Then when they do improve the materials they raise the price again. The resale value of the newer jordans will come down because jordan brand is tapping into the resale market with this proce hike.

Jordan brand is laughing at yall for buying the same color shoe over and over and justifing it cause of a minor change. I aint mad if people gonna buy it.

What other instance in your life would you knowingly support a product that did this?

Im not mad at how you feel and actually agree with some of your points...


but it still doesn't change the fact that old Jordan rehashes retain resale value better than than most smartphones.

Never did.
Parents couldn't get them for me when I was younger.
Didn't get the money until now.
Don't really want them at this point, its become a Hypebeast thing.
And yes, I'm sure everyone in this thread knows a bunch of successful people who wear Js :mjpls:
For the majority of people who work in corporate, high-paying environments, they aren't walking around in Js all day, maybe on the weekends.
But at that point, if you're really caking, why aren't you onto Visvims, SLP Sneakers, Kris van Assche, Rick Owens.
I mean, if you're got the money though, do you :salute:
