Cacs ruined sneaker culture

[Tribal Outkast]

It’s messed up for people that just want to buy the shoes to wear them. It sucks

If you're in the know and old enough....it wasn't cacs....it was asians....

Growing up in the hood in the early/mid 90s Asians always had stores selling "street wear"... Fake sneakers/Jordans/timbs/mountain gear/north face, pants, sweats, book bags, fitteds, jerseys.... All that shyt was fake and they stayed eating off the hood. Later on when they transitioned to sneaker reselling it wasn't much of a surprise to me.

Damn.
So it isn’t just retro video games and the used cd and vinyl market that’s getting hit hard by resellers.

No this is the game everywhere that something can be sold

The empowerment provided by the internet has its good and it's bad

This is an enormous market and an asset class unto itself

The sneaker game is just like stocks, crypto, real estate, art

This is a lot of nikkas sole source of income

I just use it to soften the blow when I lose out on a sneaker and have to pay resell for it

Cacs ruin everything. They ruined weed too, but unless you smoke an ounce a week you won't be able to tell.

Damn I can't tell...you talkin bout the $80 3.5s and shyt?...fukk a dispensary I turned myself into one...Grow ur own

 

[Afrodroid]

cacs ruined everything, period

 

[Treblemaka]

Cacs can't ruin a culture they already own.

We never owned the the production or distribution of sneakers.

Nike made MJ a Billionaire he made them an international brand worth 35+ Billion

 

[African Peasant]

What the hell is sneaker culture? Just glorified consumerism.

And, aren't those sneakers companies white anyway? Nike is a black company?

My problem is with cacs like Seth Rogen who won’t shut the fukk up about them smoking weed

 

[Grizzly]

Turn up some of these black shoe designers out here releasing quality shyt. "Cacs ruined sneaker culture" ... yes. They ruin most things. Now take some of that energy and put it into supporting our own.

culture by nature spreads

tryna keep it bottled is like tryna hold the bare air

Participation is one thing. Ownership is higher levels.


Too many are content with participation, as though it means anything in the final analysis. It does not.

I'm not going to complain about resell culture as I'm in on it as well and quite honestly, a lot of us are. We just aren't on the level of other resellers out here.

If you could easily flip something for hundreds of dollars by just putting a label on a box, then you'd do it too and would be lying if you insisted otherwise.....
