Never heard of them until now. And I haven't seen anything that has piqued my interest that's coming out over the next few months. I've never been a fan of Air Max's like that.

You guys ever been to a sneaker show? These go on ALL the time :ehh: Some are large enough that have brackets and prizes and stuff. The way they did it was a bit strange but yea this has gone on for a while around ny/nj. I am pretty sure we arent the only 2 states doing sneaker battles lol Last year DJ clark kent hosted a big sneaker battle winner won like 5stacks

The sneaker battle thing was just something to pass time at work. I hate how they didn't Spotlight the shoe for the viewer no up close shots until the end. Stupid. And I also hated the ooooooo n ahhhhh and the dude on the right that kept talkin trash. Shut the eff up about ur connects bro. I give more props to regular guys who get lucky or came up legit then I do guys who are rich or have a million connects to get a shoe that they're never gonna wear just to say "look what I got, and because I have these im better than u". lames

Sorry for the random rant brehs. Dude on the right seemed to be like such a "please look at me I'm cool" type of guy. The "I spent or know so and so, so I'm cool.......right" type of guy. I hate that and think those types of guys are the problems with this culture.

Unfortunately this current generation of heads got female tendencies. Like I chop it up with s few shoe fiends at work. One dude showing me his pics on IG telling me how many likes he got. Like really people are thirsting for likes like that? SMH. I don't even think it's about the shoes for most just public validation.

I am with you and its just a bad look cause like I said you just had a sneaker battle and EVERY sneaker they took out was all 2months to 3 years old. So your best sneakers are all within 1000 days old huh? These people confused hype resell as heat. Sockdarts? I had 8 pairs of navy sockdarts 3 months ago just cause they sold for $450+ dont make them heat. Yeezys? smh... But unfortunately you got kids now that cop a pair that flip high and they confuse as heat... thats hype not heat. It would have been nice if either of the 2 pulled out an OG sneaker at some point..

And that's the thing dudes posting vids of their sneaker collection thinking their stunting and all I see are new JORDAN boxes. Like everything purchased after the concord release. It's sad.

I dont hate on anyone, some are new to sneakers and thats cool with me, I just hate how people see kids like that and assume that's all sneakerheads.. Anyone finds our you are into sneakers they are quick to call you a hypebeast... that dude on the right is a hypebeast no doubt, but don't confuse him for a sneaker head. So your grail is a black yeezy boost? Cool... I sold "your grail" cause I thought it was ugly as dog shyt (sorry for any boost fans on here lmao)

Exactly yo. only a couple years ago I got into a position to be able to spend on shoes the way I do now so most of my collection is from 2012 n forward. I'm in no way a legit sneaker head I just really like the shoes that I like and I couldny give a eff less about who likes or doesn't like the shoes I buy for me to wear.

The other day I wore those playoff 13s n stopped to go check on my 15 year old brother. When he noticed I had them on he went crazy talkin bout have u had these this whole time n where are u about to go that u unDSing these. I know u bout to go shine on these nikkas. I was so disappointed brehs. I told him these are just foot coverings man, I dint wear these cuz I wanna be seen I wear these cuz I like them. He was like I feel u but then joints is fresh tho. He's not a show off type of young dude but i just hope I can keep him away from acting like the dude I the right.
