If those SOMPs were limited I think 50% of those who copped put them on eBay lol
two dudes on line today were holding bags from blades, champs, HoH, and Footlocker. Guys seriously have no shame.

G-Shock came out in October, they're mostly gone from shops now. I had to look up when it came out when I noticed that it had Safari print too. I posted a picture of the face when someone was clowning the minimalist design these dunks had.
edit: If I wore watches regularly, I'd probably track it down, I like the minimal look to it, but I haven't worn watches much since I jacked my arm up back in 04 falling off a balcony at a friend's house.
the nerves came back a little too clustered at the end of that cut and when I wear a watch it ends up feeling like I'm being pinched after an hour.
Scar battle?

speaking of being impressed by sneakers...
I literally hate when people start talking to me about them; I was with my gf the other day and we rolled into Zumiez and as soon as I walked in the dude working there was like
"ARE THESE THEM, ARE THESE THE TIFFANY DUNKS?!?!" as he pointed with both hands at my feet then he goes on about dumb crap he doesn't know about. He was trying to tell me that the Tiff's are 3M and I'm just like "yeah dude whatever ****". I warned my gf before we entered what was probably gonna happen because of cheesy those dudes working there are.
He kept trying to show me these Diamond shirts and what not; I told him I hated Diamond and could careless pretty much and if they didn't sell Stussy I would never walk into that store

I always miss out when they do a big deal like that myself. Sometimes I just want to buy ANYTHING just to get in on it once.

the thirst and sadness of resellers is hilarious
I emailed one eBay seller who basically begged me to give him $225 via Paypal and he would take them to the post office now; like I don't know it's closed

you win. I think my foot stayed bruised from that fall for about 2 years, and I still get this weird dead feeling in my shoulder that I never had before that.

Please go play the stock market or invest in gold. I'll take gold/stocks over sneakers any day of the week.
I dunno...
To keep it one hundred, if you know what you are doing, flipping kicks can absolutely outperform the market. And, if you've been doing this a long time and were able to take advantage of sales and stuff, you got some heavy ROIs. I have pairs of 2001 Infra 6s, for example, that I bought for $60. What can you get for those nowadays 450+, right? So, find me an investment fund that would have delivered an 800% return over 12 years or whatever?
Nowadays, you can't really get that win because the "market" is more efficient. Prices don't get as low, and for the most part then don't go as high for the majority of stuff. But, it is kind of like stocks in that if you "invested" in the right things, you could have made "profits." There are Polo hats from the early 90s that were in outlets in baskets priced 9.99, that now literally fetch thousands of dollars.
Now, I'm hesitant to even post this because it's they type of thing that will encourage all these young dudes to try to resell. But, my old heads know what I'm saying.
That said, none of that was the reason I got into kicks or gear. When I was falling in love with these things, it was completely unfathomable to think that what has happened would have happened.
And, if people want to get into this sneaker thing as simply a means of making money, that's fine. But, don't try to rub shoulders with the people you are exploiting.
I have lots of "reps" I must be super duper cool!

Old New Orleans apartment, with the wood starting to rot on the railing, it just slid out of the support beams and I fell backwards breaking my fall on a chain link fence. Messed up thing was that it was early in the night so no one was even drunk yet.
