Nike is cooked. GenZ not holding them down

[DJ Paul's Arm]

All I need is a fresh pair of coke white Air Force mids and I’m good.

I’m done with Jordan’s. The quality nowadays are trash.

5s are borderline ugly, breh

My gen Alpha son got mad Js....Gen Z is too busy gooning to worry about kicks.

Don't need to worry about shoes when you dont be outside. That's why they be rocking the crocs and pajamas combo

Resale game isn't even hot like it used to be. I just think the current basketball sneakers aren't cool with them.

Obsessing about Nike/Jordan is Unc status

COVID checks shot it up into overdrive

Nikes and Jordans just cost too much When tax season rolls around in 2026 we will season a couple of crazy releases similar to the metallic 5s,cool grey 9s and the flu games this year

Yeah my niece and nephew wear new balance

I have no idea where you all live but Gen Z is still very much into Jordans.

The cement 3's and black cat 3's came out a year ago and both still sell above retail. Same with the bred 4's and reimagined 5's.

Now if the shadow 10's, the black cat 4's, and the gamma 11's sit that's a different story.

Nobody young cares about the grapes because they don't care about Fresh Prince. It's specific colorways that are sitting, and Jordan has been flooding the market.

@ using the Grape 5's as an example......you didn't use the Metallic 5's because they sold out and resell is $400+ on certain sizes .... Jordan 4's are still very popular.....let's not act like the Brick 4 wasn't sneaker of the year....one of the many reasons I don't take others opinion on shoes highly in this section.....

No.

Also I forgot to mention the grapes came out a few years ago, before the 2025 re-release. Most people who wanted a pair already got them.

Asics >>>>>>

fukk no

People have to stop forcing them ASICS on us lol. You telling me you think Nike ain’t it but asics are the ones?? ASICS?! I’ll buy several pairs of reeboks before I touch asics. I saw a pair that I kinda liked because of the colorway… I let them sit though cause I felt like I’d be forcing it lol. I can’t do it.

Whatever dropped yesterday…the mall was PACKED. I’m usually an online shopper anyway but how the one day I go to the mall there are literally NO SPACES ANYWHERE
