Is sneaker craze as big as it used to be?

[and i love it]

Is that stuff still going on... like it used to?

I have not really been focusing much time into that, so im not sure. But has the whole sneaker thing died down.. or is it still going... or is it even larger?

I'm thinking about revamping my sneaker site, that was somewhat popular at once, this summer when I have some time.

A lot of older collectors quitting, but a lot of young kids starting...

Yeah, it's dying.. But growing.

 

[enrique23]

it's still going. right now, everyone, including me, is trying to get the yeezys

 

[creamofdacrops]

if anything its growing.. more kids getting into it but its just like any other trend people will stop and then you'll know who was just following a trendjust to be cool and who really loves kicks

Yea, I was never a collector, just bought what I like. Nowadays I buy a pair of sneakers every once in a while, also I would rather buy a pair of loafers orboaters or w.e before sneakers. I also only dont wear any of my street wear tees

[jfmartimcdandruff]

with SB's and Jordan's failing badly, and that "recession"...it's sorta dying...but it's still there.

Its very, very watered down. A lot of the old heads are done with it now that the culture has been bastardized by this generation. People creating unnecessaryhype for products that would once have hit the clearance racks a few years ago is just one of the reasons why.

 

[rsdplaya]

i didn't collect very long...don't know why i ever got into it...

just wasted a lot of money

It might not be what it was but it will never die out. Sneakers and Sneakerheads will be here forever.

 

[wallyhopp]

for all the wrong reasons with a bad trend continuing...

yucky

 

[biggimike]

Its not as fun as it used to be, pretty much done but I buy once in awhile. I miss the good ole days, hell I miss the 90's..

things killed the shoes game to me.. like fakes and hypebeast(but they do a good for reselling)
but i still dont mind wearing a pair of jays.. to me is history and they look so unique..

yeah. i think some of us just feel that way because we're growing older and growing out of that phase..but then middle schoolers/high schoolers are justnow getting into it.

it's growing so big it'll collapse under it's own weight in a catastrophic supernova and form a black hole

 

[All Ready]

GR shoes are dying in popularity but hyped shoes are camped out for more than ever
