When did you realize the sneaker game passed you by?

[Hey_zeus]

When i started calling them sneakers instead of kicks, shoes, etc.

 

[Arithmetic]

I’m in college with over 100 pairs of kicks. I got every pair of yeezy v2s that dropped in the last two years had to stop because I realized I’ll never get to wear most of the kicks I have

How'd you cop the yeezys

If you’re over 25 and don’t have a roation of these on deck

You really need to evaluate your manhood...

Sneakers are for little boys

When I saw some nikka with the matching kicks, outfit, etc and thought to myself "This dude is trying too hard".

Plus when it comes to women, if your shyt is clean then you good.

Honestly, I was pretty much off it by the time I hit college.

Not only was I not a sneakerhead like that in the first place, but it became apparent how much of a waste of money it was (at least for a broke college student) once I started living on my own.

When i was wearing size 16's when i was 16 and my foot grew 1 size every year i aged until 21. I couldn't even buy shoes at the store anymore after like 14, 15. And to this day i aint never seen no top shelf sneaks in size 16 let alone size 21. And you know i aint ever found a pair of Jordan's to fit me in my life. I did get a couple of fresh Shaq sneaks in my size though. I always did find nice shoes to fit me that were clean and comfortable, i got really lucky, can't really complain.

I never was a collector nor do I get excited over releases. I cop shyt here and there and I actually wear my shyt.

You have grown men out here with 20+ pairs of sneakers and not even one pair if decent dress shoes... pathetic. Shyt like that is one of the many reason black men aren’t respected in society.

High school when I couldn’t get Js

 

[Bunchy Carter]

When I needed bots to buy shoes. Besides getting the Supreme Uptempo collab, this year was a big L. Black Pigeon SB and Off White collection was the last straw. Last pair of kicks I bought were the Flyknit 1s and I love them.

I had to use a bot when I bought these flex step boots:

The hypebeast were all on then. The damn resale value of these are 2,000 now.

When I was 30 and waited on line for a sneaker release, and looked at all the sneaker heads on the line. They all looked like losers to me. I couldn’t see myself doing it anymore.

when my beloved air max doubled in price

 

[BmoreGorilla]

I knew it was over when i would show up to cop a pair in the morning and a$$holes had pitched tents and been in line all night
