The official Sneakerhead Thread*************

:lol:

I feel you to each their own but like you said, they're top 5 Jordan silhouette's period.

Personally top 3 to me and it should be for everyone! :lol:

1, 3 and 4 that's it, the best ever. Now if someone wants to slide an 11 in there I won't be mad at'em.

I personally like the 3's and 4's more than the 1's, but the 1's are the start of it all so they have to be number 1.

Imo

But we're all entitled to like what we like.

Oh and I've always like the 2's :giggle:
Can’t stand the 2s but these are kinda fly and they rep D’Ville

The Rise And Fall Of British Knights
And Empire That Later Crumbled
March 2025

How many remember British Knights sneakers? Ah, the 80s and 90s—a time when the sneaker game was booming, Prices were cheap, supply was plentiful and resellers didn't exist.

Nike had Air Jordans, Adidas had Superstars, and Reebok had the Pump. But there was another player in the game that was once the king of cool: British Knights aka BK.

BKs were groundbreaking in the new industry of sneakers as casual wear. They worked closely with rappers and influences of the day, and they built a legacy in an industry that today, is ruled by the big guys.

But if they were around, running neck and neck with brands like Nike and Adidas in their infancy, why didn't they too become one of the big guys? Let's find out.

Some of the items recovered by police during a search warrant served in Santa Monica last week.

"During the operation, detectives recovered an estimated $500,000 worth of stolen train cargo, including unreleased Nike shoes and clothing," the release said.

Officers recovered over 2,100 pairs of stolen Nikes and 150 cartons of various Nike clothing inside of the business, according to LAPD's release.

Shams was arrested at the scene and booked for receiving stolen property, police said.

"This case underscores the importance of interagency collaboration in combating large-scale cargo theft and preserving the integrity of commercial supply chains," LAPD said.

Dummy!
 
Dope. Alot of dope drops this year, I just copped the cave stones but may cancel. Copped the a ma maniere jordan 6 Saturday from SNKR....are you going for the Gammas?


I like that caves tone colorway a lot and they are sitting everywhere, I plan to grab them soon as I see a clearance on them, not crazy about the AMM.

Gammas are an absolute must cop, I got my daughter in Chicago looking for a possible SNKR stash at the Nike store.
Was a ton of heat this year, I wanted those Awake 5's , I missed out, but other than that I pretty much got everything I wanted.

CoolKicks was back on Whatnot Saturday. I was waiting on the AMM 6s to go on sale but they sold out on SNKRS. I need them because I got all of the other AMM Jordan’s. AMM site still has them so I’m about to pull the trigger on them. Gammas are a must for sure!

Lucky you. I only have the AMM 6 now, I refuse to buy any resell over 280. No way Id cop any shoes over 300 unless they're dress boots and shoes

Yeah I canceled order cause they're sitting and I rather wait for price drop. I missed out on the earlier drops cause had other shit going

You get the undefeated at retail?
 
I’ve only paid resell for two pairs of AMM.. that was the purple 4s and the white Jordan 3s. The rest I got for retail. BTW, I pushed the button on the AMM 6s LOL.
Yeah got mines from SNK on Saturday, lucky as fuck. Those, the tuxedo 11 cool greys 11 and bred 9s I consider my lucky retail cops
 
How’s the leather quality/look feel?

Great, stitching is clean, no glue marks, they did good with the shoes, for such a hyped release, I dont know they chepaped out with the flip top box. Was really hoping, they it would have been the slide in with the plasctic like the origina.
