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

Kids teased him, because he didn't get the V's like he said he was....so for 25 years he's convinced himself this

Buddy, the 5s weren't even live like that back in the day. I didn't even acknowledge them. Sega came out around that era. That Sonic the Hedghog business on the soul.:smh:

But if y'all like'em knock yourselves out. I was just trying to save Shaddy a buck.:cool:

Man please stfu. You're exposing yourself.

The 3M tongue and lace locks were everything. Saying cats wasn't checking for V's is horse shit. Vs were popular as fuck.

ya man...this cac in HS had em...I was so fucking pissed cuz he couldn't even play a lick of basketball...had no business wearing jordans...if I recall the sole wasn't icy blue then tho...it was either clear or yellow I believe

Exposing myself?:lol: I'm on finishline right now. I got the fives in my cart, hatefully. Hella sizes. Any size:eek2: Please STFU! These are 4 knockoffs. May as well just skipped a release.:dunno:

And a question. Did you or your parents cop the 5s when they came out back then? Honestly.

Hell yea i copped them. Bro im older than anyone in this fucking thread... and been doing this since the mid 80's... .. when you cats were still getting allowance. That 3M tongue and lace toggles were game changers. Got the first retro in 2000 and the whites in 2013 as well... Availability today has ZERO to do with the flat out false shit you saying about how they were originally received tho. The 2013 fire reds wernt hard to get either (i even grabbed a pair off NBA.com).. One reason is the V retro is less like the original than other retros.. The toe box is more oval than v shape, the leather is different (more stiff) and that fucking blue sole is atrocious imo.. They have also had more variations released than others .

Sure.:yawn: Any 80s champ wasn't/ isn't going to cop those biscuits.

And availability has everything to do with credibility when dealing with a limited release. 4s gone. Ghost.

5s, still have them in the cart on finishline. I could parlay with them all evening, still in the cart. Still there.

Niggas love being loud and wrong.. Shit amazes me.. Taxis sat on the shelf as did all 12's on original release.. Some 11's were t fucking Marshalls and Outlets back in the day.. Yet they sell out now.. Again, how shoes was received upon original release has zero to with whats going on now. Let it go man. You're wrong.

The ashy V's from 2011 were $150. I happen to have my box out, because I want to sell mine. Hell of a price jump :smh:

The 5's were a game changer.

The tongue, shoe box, and 3M was fire.

U think the 9's hot?
