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

How about people that are into Foamposites knowing or being into 'em since that's more of their flavor??? That shit ain't complex in da way some try to make it seem as though there's a science behind it or somethin'. :dunno:

What are you talking about, does what I said apply to you?

Foams are a hypebeast sneaker now, everyone really in to sneakers knows that, they have been since the eggplants dropped in 2009. Just like when Dunks jumped the shark, foams have too.

Go to a high school and you can see.

People post pics of their foam collection, you don't see anything over the past three years, you don't even see the first batch of eggplants from 2009, you don't see flightposite 1's, 2's, 3's...

This is a fact. It's no different than people who never saw Jordan play lined up to buy his kicks, because everyone else is...hypebeast

A lot of people didn't like Foams just four years ago, but now all of a sudden they like them...why, because their friends do, and because they think the price gives them some sort of stature....hypebeast

In 2007, those neon joints sat, were going on sale for $99...nobody wanted them, because they didn't have the translucent sole. Two years ago they went back to around retail if you wanted to sell them, now they're going for over retail. You have silver and red foam pros that were attainable for around retail just a couple of years ago, going for over $400.

Sorry if that hurts feelings, I cringe when I see foams being worn by some dick and ball jean wearing faggot with pink laces in them.


Wait...What all black joints?

black zoom rookies come out in March
 
:smh:The reaction to some foams and jordans that if you been into kicks for a minute ,your feet should have atleast tocuhed mutilple pairs that are continuely being recycled.

Jordan-Bat,dead horse
Dunk-dead
sb dunk-super dead
Air Force 1's-dead,dead,dead
Foams-in the hospital,with a bunch of well-wisher hoping they make it out.

Man I tried to tell Shady and them that forces been dead but they was coming at me sideways like them shits is hot in the streets.
 
It's over man.:lol:

How so? You apparently don't live in NY cause in the city white uptowns in the summer will never be dead. Wherever you are that may not be the case. Ups were never a fad here, they were the basics. Basics can't die. That's like saying Levi's are dead.
 
.........

Nigga said dick & ball jean wearing. :lol:

Y'all ain't lyin' about Dunks & SB Dunks (which I loved dearly at one time). I'm not into either anymore and I haven't seen any SB dunks that I've liked in quite some time although I may see if I can find da Milli Vanilli & Mafia Pack dunks. :smh:

I'll still fucks w/AF1's though. Just got my Premium VT Highs a few days ago, da "wool" ones. I wear what I like though, I'on't really give a fuck about "dead" or alive or what's "hot in da streets". :D

^^^ THIS.

People from other areas of the country are quick to scream AF1's are dead. When they don't realize that we were fucking with them way before it became popular. Way before they seen their favorite rapper wear them. Way before they seen it on 106 Park, shit for that matter before Bill Bellamy rocked them on "Jams Countdown". Back before Donny Simpson was kicking it with that fine ass bitch on VideoSoul. The day AF1's die will be the same day chinks stop selling chicken wings in the hood.

It would be reasonable to assume that he's one of those types that determines their tastes based on what everyone else is wearing or whatever da current trend of da moment is which furthers Complex's point on Hypebeasts. :smh:

fresh is fresh regardless.

Its only dead when you treat 'em as trends. A dope kick is a dope kick. I bet you I would still turn heads if I rock my hawaii sbs or my easter II air forces.

The fact that barely anyone rock them now makes 'em even better. I went out to cali last year and my dude had the white on white forces mids. Rocking it with some camo shorts and black hoody and fitted. I thought it was so fresh because you don't see it. he was the only dude at the event like that. Everyone one else had like vans and some other bullshit.

:rolleyes: I was the first nigga at my highschool in Texas rocking all whites with my Iceberg shirt. Shit just don't do it for me anymore, just like I stopped wearing earrings, shit just got played out.

Yeah, but the resell on those will be high. I just wonder how many they're releasing since they're doing two drops.

With jeans they actually wouldn't look bad

But $175 for some I's :smh:
