2nd jordan ive copped this year, and thats because of the quality of them. people just like to complain...
and a way to kill the resellers is not buy from them. you know theres gonna be a restock at some point in time soon. once theyre stuck with shoes prices will drop. people complain about resellers but yall just feed them with copping since you missed out in the morning. and prices are always high from resellers the day of the drop. wait it out fools its just a shoe you dont need it that bad

I'm pretty happy my homie woke me up to go get these. I was really surprised to see the amount of people that were waiting for these.

licking your shoes like those fools from those concord videos actually makes you look like a moron. it doesnt make you an "official" sneakerhead. Did you consider that those shoes may have been placed on some dirty surface in the factories in asia?Originally Posted by sickickz23
the fact that you tried to explain it.....idk....this era of buying Jordans is now in rapid decline when people are explaining licking the bottom solesOriginally Posted by 86crookedways

Is the quality on these much worse than the 04's? Hell no. The point of getting the new release, at least to me, is to avoid yellowing and get the most out of em cause I'll be rocking mines all summer.

They went to my boys Footlocker this morning, they were #1-3.
They got 10,10.5,11.5...none of them even wore the sizes they copped.
They left the store, went downstairs trying to sell for $300 to people @ Champs & Finishline.
Kids here in Orlando these days are straight up jokes.

I love how everybody talking about how resellers aren't a problem or defending resellers or posting that they bought 10 pairs but THEY aren't a reseller has like 20 posts.
*looks at post count*
oh I only have 200? Damn I'm too young to be this much of a crotchety old man. Whatever, grats to all that copped these to wear. I hope to see some pics/reviews of people that hoop in them. I wonder if they'll be tanks like the OGs/04s?

If it's redundant, it should be that much clearer. Do I need to say it again?
You're in here equating some lame %*$ practice with being a "sneakerhead". When that practice is something a lame would do.
Let's take "sneakerhead" as a sincere term, and not just a term applied to people who got caught up in the popularity of sneakers.
You've got guys on here who've been buying a loving sneakers consistently for 20+ years. It's not a fad. It's a genuine love and passion. Search this forum for my "collection" and you'll see Dunks, AF1's, Air Max, J's, Trainers etc. Not just the latest Jordan release.
Then you've got kids who've been buying Jordans for a few years, who consider themselves "sneakerheads". When they really are not. They are caught up in a moment. So the label doesn't apply.
My guess is, Fat Joe being the exception, most people who have loved sneakers over a period of time have not licked the sole of a shoe. That's type lame a moreso fits the new breed of "sneakerhead".
Which in turn, sounds like it fits you. If that doesn't make sense, then I'm not sure I can help you much.

resellers piss me off at the local malls once they grab them there up for sale right there again it like you foreal that desperate to make 100$ or less? I spend hundreds of dollars a day on *%$!*#*% but u don't see me selling shoes trying to make that buck I'm in it to wear and stock! If u wanna make quick cash they should just sell dope it's the same risk of gettin shot and jacked but for shoes SMH specially in the hood lol
Sorry For the rant NT.
I still respectively picked up from overseas on this drop and got lucky so in the long run I didn't have to mess with the malls this time around

You say straight joke. I say straight hustlers. Can't knock the hustle. Plus it's legit. Ppl cry about resellers, but a you have to put in work to amass a nice amount of J's especially in the climate of popularity now. If you couldn't obtain one pair don't be mad at the reseller be mad at yourself. Don't hate the game learn the game ie put in your homework cuz trust they did. They didn't get all these pairs by luck. I never have any ill feelings toward resellers cuz I always secure my pair. I rarely if never buy 2 pairs just one cool for me. So with all the resources not to mention NT is a hell of a crutch couldn't get one pair be mad at yourself. Not the reseller. Theres a market he/she just so happen to be capitalize off it. Supply & Demand.
