Seriously.

Let the kid buy what he likes, if he likes fusions, then let him.

And when buying on NT and ISS, always be careful. Buy from known sellers because you could get scammed.

Other then that just buy what you like and don't be a follower.

C/S....people and they 'stop fusion' madness

I'm new to the game too so everyone's advice is more than helpful! Thanks everyone!

Don't buy too much, you're going to grow out of it. I Bought a few pairs here and there back in 98-01, but when my feet stopped growing around 18-19ish05-06 , I started collecting more and more.

AND IT'S "ADVICE!!!" NOT "ADVISE." I WOULD "ADVISE" YOU TO STAY IN SCHOOL. BUT IN TERMS OF FUTURE ADVICE, READ ABOVE.

 

[jaone626]

ignore hype, monetary value, and everyone's opinion when buying... buy what YOU like...

I wish I started earlier. Just turned 18 and passed up countless opportunities to get some heat. Just buy what you like, haters will hate but let them. I justbought some DS Mars IV and thats my most significant buy and thats not saying much. Good luck with your collection!

Yea same im around your age..basically stating what everyone else is saying...
-fusions are ok if you like em
-don't get to hyped up
-buy a size bigger so you could still fit in them
-watch out for fakes
-BUY KICKS THAT YOU LIKE NOT WHAT OTHERS ARE ALL HYPED UP ABOUT
-do some research on the prices and differences between real and fake kicks
-enjoy collecting!

Just buy what you like and always remember quality over quantity.

And HAVE FUN with it.

also start off with a pair of OG's

No fusions and Fakes. Always Research and know what you are buying.

Don't buy from random/any websites, unless you know they are 1000000000% Legit. If you buy from eBay make sure to run a quick Legit check on NikeTalk inthe Legit Check Thread by posting pictures. Also make sure that sellers tag all their pictures of their shoes when you are shopping.

and remeber money is limited in some cases, dont blow your money on everything. Purcahse wisley.

dont walk in grass and dirt when theres a sidewalk that takes 10 seconds longer, ive been lazy like that but youll regret it later

 

[nathansgotsole]

We're not so diffrent from our age. so some advice.

Quality over Quanity.
Buy what you like.(Don't post any post's saying "WHAT SHOE SHOULD I GET?! THIS ONE OR THIS ONE?")
Educate yourself on shoes. Read some sites about info.
Watch for those fakes out on ebay (Personally I don't buy from ebay)
As for fusions get them if you like them, Don't listen to anyone else's opinion just get them if you want.
Before you buy a pair from the net. check out other sites before coppin'. (Flight club =

)

But yea overall just do research.

Good luck with the game.

Peace.

You don't have to tell a sneaker fiend to avoid grass and dirt...! I'll take 10 minutes to avoid them!

congrats on starting! First of all no fakes. Second buy what u like ppl are tellin u what to buy but if ur into fusions buy them. I belive in more of qualityand quanity, not this over that because I buy a lot of quality shoes. But save some money cause ur gonna be driving in a few years n u might want a new whipjust don't go crack fiend on the kicks. Open a savings account. I started collecting when I was 13 n I'm 17 now and have around 200 pairs of shoes.

 

[chisoxdavid]

Get what you like, not what others tell you. If you like fusions get them who cares what others say or think. Collecting shoes is about shoes that you like notabout shoes that others like, are you collecting for them or for you? Walk like a duck so your shoes dont crease jk

learn your history. JB was born in the 80s and 90s, and that's when it peaked in most heads' opinions. you can't know where you're headingunless you know where you've been.

And don't fall into the hype.
Know your stuff and be real and collect what you like, not what's 'in'.
Personally, I don't why people pay $700 for garbage Yeezys.

OG's FTW
