Man shut the fuck up, you're the main hypebeast in this thread.

Bragging about buying kicks for $500

asking when corks come out, google muthafucka

 

[Mack1052]

I consider myself a sneakerhead but not a hypebeast because I don't cop kicks because everybody else wants them.

The joints I cop now, are the kicks I couldnt cop back in the day that I always wanted. A nigga never stood on no lines or paid more than 60 over retail for kicks.

Not knocking anybody that has but thats how I get down

This nigga Cub got mofos paying 5 hunit for kicks now fuck going on?

How ya lol cousin get 5 rocks and he ain't got no job?

Actually hypebeast are the ones who give a fuck about this release. If people care that much about Nike Air, they should have the 2003's which are still wearable. And you're a fool if you run out and buy the same damn sneaker two years a part, just because of a piece of plastic on the back. If you wear jeans you can't even see the shit.

It's the same fuckin sneaker, there doesn't even look to be any quality improvements. Not sure why dudes are getting hype over the same painted midsole and stiff leather.

And that's why resellers will buy these up and charge over $300 for them...hypebeast. And people wonder why the sneaker game is fucked up.

Hypebeast love Nike Air, because they think they're supposed to Nike Air. That shit will be tested next year when they'll run out and buy a Knicks Nike Air Jordan I over a OG colorway with history behind it because of a fuckin Jumpman.

Clark Kent was talking about the shit yesterday.

Man last time I had them shit was when I was in 5th grade 87/88... I'm coppin 1 pair.. Even if they released it with the jump man on the back. It completes the original color way of my 3s don't really care for all them new age color ways

So far only off color ways of Jordan's I have are the military 4s and raptor 7s which I'm trying to get rid of now lol

Wait, niggas in a "SneakerHead thread" calling niggas hypebeast.. Lmao if this ain't irony, I don't know what is..

Again, it's interesting that this is a so called sneakerhead thread
but the majority of post are Retro Jordan's and Foamposites. That's cool and
all but real sneaker heads like a variety of sneaker types and brands.
They also make trends instead of just following them

It is what it is though, it's your money buy what you like but call this thread

Ditto, I have a wide variety of kicks but I'm willing to bet a good number of frequent posters in this thread do as well.

You're right. You dont know what irony is...or a hypebeast.

I assumed it was foam and retro J heavy because of the december releases... Just skimmed the thread and you do have a point. But like Enigma said, i think a good deal of those folks have a variety of kicks in their personal arsenal.

 

[shaddyvillethug]

Have u niggas ever posted anything tho?

So I'm a hypebeast because I would like all Jordan's released in their original form.....interesting.

So are those who only like Jordan's in OG colorways considered hypebeast also? I mean why are they stuck on specific colors it's the same shoe.

U Wildin wit that statement of this thread just being about Jordan's and foams

I was smack dab in the era when Adidas specifically set shit off on the sneaker crazy letting Run DMc pump their kicks

I had the white and green Stan Smiths back then

Shit was an NY thing then when cats was rockin Ellese, Diadora and spot bilts aka saucony

You got an interesting screen name you talkin post up what u got...

You coming in here on some slick yap to cats who actually collect kicks and that are very knowledgeable

Me personally I'm just want the J's that I had growing up nothing more nothing less in the original color way nothing hype beast about that.

I got 1 pair of foams, not a foam head either.

Fact is Nike and reebok releasing retro shit I use to rock and I will cop 1 pair reebok pumps, black tops and all

You are obviously clueless and not informed. Yes people rocked Converse, Adidas and Puma's from the 60's through the early 80's. When Jordan's were released in 1985 that changed the shoe game forever. That's your issue if you didn't know that.

i dont get how ninjas are buying j's that came out a few years ago already. Jordan Brand is just doing re-re-re-releases. the white/fire red V's that came out in december 2006 is coming out at the end of 2013 . and the aqua 8 dropped in 2008 now they're coming out next year. JB better do some new colorways.

I dont see how ninjas going to keep releasing the same shit every 4 or 6 years.

they got to stop fucking around and drop these.

going for 13 years now. stop re-re-re-release shit every 4 year .

The biggest change imo was when they started dropping retros... before that you were assed out... unless you knew someone at nike iirc

Y'all got to understand that not everybody started collecting kicks 10 years ago.
I've always admired sneakers, but didn't really start collecting until about a year ago.
Hell, I didn't even know Js were being retroe'd until I heard about the whole Concord madness.
I agree it would be pretty dumb to buy the same shoe over again just because it now has 'Nike Air' on the tongue or on the heel.
Every year a new wave of collectors come up (for better or for worse) and so these re-re-releases y'all speak of are actually new to a lot of people like myself.
And no, I don't consider myself a hypebeast.
I don't like Foams, Yeezys and even some of the retros Js I don't fuck with.

^^^^^ @ Jeezys

Yeah them Young Jeezys for hype beast

 

[CUB2006]

Damn fool is acting as if people were camping out for J's in the 80's...


Go get ya dick wet young ass nigga... U know nothing about this sneaker shit. U probably got mad retro + colorways flexing on instagram talking about "recent cop, check out my heat"

So I'm a hypebeast because I would like all Jordan's released in their original form.....interesting.

So are those who only like Jordan's in OG colorways considered hypebeast also? I mean why are they stuck on specific colors it's the same shoe.

Considering they just came out two years ago and sat for a couple of weeks. Now they're desirable

Considering you will never get them in their original form, ummmm, yeah. If the leather is still different, the air bag smaller, they're lower and the mid soles painted so it cracks...how exactly is that original form, because they have Nike Air? Meanwhile they have the same quality issues? The fact is they're not and never will be. 94's weren't 85's and 2003's weren't 94's.

I'm black and from the inner city as most of us are.

The same shit I'm interested in now, I was interested in when I was a kid or in college.

People from my hood didn't wear Van's and Supra's son. We don't wear Adidas with wings and dog bones.

Well going by your logic everyone's a hypebeast then. No retro is made with the same quality as the originals. The Original Jordan's were made for basketball, the retro's are made as more of a lifestyle shoe. Play ball in them if you want.

So moving forward every person who wants a retro shoe is a hypebeast, now I understand.

I said that

The same damn sneaker came out two years ago, and they sat. There wasn't a ten minute sell out on NDC. Eastbay didn't crash. There were no long lines at Footlocker with people waiting overnight. They were in stores for a couple of weeks. They didn't go on sale, but everyone could have easily had multiples.

Dudes haven't even seen the packaging or know how hard they'll be to get. Just Nike Air and want them.
