Kanye got $4K sneakers?

[ll_simon]

everyone that knows better. your an absolute goddam clown if you wear fakes. That's like smearing shyt on yourself and walking around in it acting like you don't smell.

It says I like these and can't afford them so I'm fronting. It's embarassing to you and anyone in your company by association. just find another red sneaker you can afford and wear that.

So you gonna be able to notice my fakes in a dark nightclub or bar? I'm not wearing these to go sip lattes at starbucks

The good shyt is usually super limited. Nike does this shyt on purpose.

i take it sneakers are a a passion of yours

Jussayin you strike me as the type who would @ the temerity of a mainstream nikka slappin the 4k tag on an item that costs a couple of dollars to manufacture.

 

[JLova]

bottom line Nike is the cause of all this shyt with all this limited release bullshyt...... I remember when you could just walk into footlocker and buy a pair of Jordans with no drama...... fukk em

Yea. Remember heat sitting on clearance racks when nikkaz were more interested in air force ones and shelltoes. Ate so well back then.

 

[Nemesis]

the internet is the main culprit more than anything imo.

pre-mid 2000's collecting sneakers used to be an underground thing mainly between blacks and hispanics in the hood. now that collecting sneakers has kind of went "mainstream" because of the internet and now that there are tons of sneaker websites, fashion websites that feature sneakers, and places like tumblr. you got white kids, asians, middle eastern peole, etc from the suburbs all in to this shyt.

it's just flat out way too many people into this shyt now compared to back then. even general releases are selling out.



i never saw kids like this in high school when i was fukkin with sneakers.

I fukking hate hypebeasts and resellers ...... I buy shoes to wear em, fukk anyone that buys shoes just to stick em in a closet and boast about em

 

[Vado]

sad part about this is some poor youth will work night and day to save up enough to purchase a pair and then get harassed or arrested in the upscale store of purchase and not receive any support from said celebrity.

i dont understand this mindset

who cares if kanye supports what happened or not

saving up to buy some nikes and shoppong at Barneys are two different things

matter fact buying some nikes and the incident at barneys has absolutely zero correlation

you trying to tie them together because both jay and kanye are rappers

smarten up nas

We all have our vices. But I can't bring myself to spending several mortgage payments on a pair of sneakers. Would rather invest that money. Didn't have that mentality 10 years ago.

Once I had to line up. I was done. I'm not waiting in line with these nikkaz. Resellers of anything make me sick.

Let Kanye tell it tho

Rail against the system while criminally overpricing items that last 1-3 years

these minstrel show props are a joke

fukk him

sounds to me that you don't understand or have experienced the struggle... but your viewpoint is duly noted

Women dont care about your sneakers

 

[Thatrogueassdiaz]

How much were the Red Octobers when they first dropped?

 

[Amestafuu (Emeritus)]

Women dont care about your sneakers

women always look at shoe breh... they don't have to be 4k to get a look tho just a nice fit.

 

[intruder]

The sneaker game is a ma'fukka.

Now just watch all these clons save their Burger King salary money and try to get some.
