And another thing...I wear my shoes, I don't collect them. They're not baseball cards.
I never understood bringing your "girl" to a campout either. I rather be in her than waiting on a sidewalk with a bunch of virgins.
Buying shoes, for 99.9% of us, is not about knowing what you're buying. It's not a car. There's no research involved when you're buying a shoe. Release picture shows up on NT and we buy off looks and or because we had them in middle school and want to get our adjusted size.
Also, weren't foamposites, at some point, no wearable on outdoor courts? I could've sworn they fell apart faster playing outdoor.

As I've been noticing. A bunch of big guys complaining about the younger kids buying shoes. Like at one point we weren't all young kids buying shoes.
We didn't know EVERYTHING at their age. I for one personally know that I didn't know everything about sneakers (outside of Jordans) until I became a senior in high school/freshman in college. I knew my fair share, I could have definitely answered the slam dunk contest question. Not because of sneakers, but because of me being a fan of the sport. But thats just me.
Let these kids cook man.
Just because someone loves something it doesn't mean they're as obsessed with it as you are. I'm sure there were kids who loved playing Pokemon when we were little, but me? Man I was OBSESSED with that @$#*. Knew everything there was to know about the original 151. I knew the whole pokedex in numerical and alphabetical order. I knew every strength/weakness to every type, every evolution, where to find them, what techniques they could learn, etc etc. Does that mean I loved it more than my friends who also loved playing the games along side of me? Not really. They loved playing the game just as much as me.

I'm feeling this video because it finally puts the sneaker game in perspective for the younger generation
I'm fine with those lining up for the current basketball shoes ie the Christmas pack because it's relevant
Those who've just seen Kobe, lebron or Durant played in them are gonna want them maybe just as much as I wanted Jordan's when I saw him play on tv
But it does get upsetting to see campers for retro Jordan's when 80% of them have never seen Mike played a game in a day of their life

At least he's doing something productive. And the hypebeasts are killing the game, but it's whatever. Just another campout.

waking up at 5 am to shoot a video to "out" hypebeasts is being productive? We are well into the information age. What used to known by few people (release dates, restocks, etc) is now known by so many more people. Someone put me on to the restock on 34th and told me to keep it on the low. There were still a line down the block (NYC city block) at both locations. either get a connect, camp, or pay rape.

That was something else... Bet they pat each other on the back every time they watch it.. "You got him on that one bro! Get me that bag of Funyuns over there.." type of cats.. This is what makes lining up terrible. You meet some cool cats, but some of them be about that BS..

I couldn't get past the claims of collecting since Jesus' sandals. After reading this thread I see I was justified in x'ing out your vid.

annoying as the video is, i take this as a poke at the resellers. anyone who likes this should do whatever they please, regardless of age. irritation starts when those who dont (about half) shut everyone else out because theyd rather not put in a real days work.Originally Posted by 504 D1 Prospect
elitism at its finest, what if they just like the shoe?

I never saw Dr. J play because he was before my time; do I have to stop wearing my jersey O Holy One?
