I remember Uptowns got played really quick well before Nelly made his AF1 song especially when they started making them with 50 million colors. I recall seeing more Air Max and Air Max Plus kicks as well as Diesel sneakers that looked like this in the 90s

Travel Fox & Buffalinos were the sneaker of choice for Jamaicans before that too

 

[cli-terminator]

LeBron 8 lows might be the most comfortable shoes imo

My Lebron 11 lows are my most comfortable. Lebron's in general have some excellent cushioning

well 1st, that's the problem. That attitude right there. "I'd rather take my money to the italian cac" which is your right I ain't saying don't do it.
2nd it wasn't actual price just throwing crazy figures out there because those cac hipster dudes charge those crazy prices for slapping 2 coats of pant on a shoe that's already been manufactured.
Paint a nike sign yellow and sew a rabbit foot on the tongue and then charge you $500 for the shoes.

 

[Mt Airy Groove]

Adidas Ultra Boost Uncaged - most comfortable sneaker I have ever worn

Those italian cacs makes better quality product than nike.

NO, but i gotta matching jordan marvin the martian shirt to go with

 

[largebillsonlyplease]

Right. I'm not talking about that. I am specifically talking about customs that people make from manufactured products that already exist.
When they paint some af1's a different color and charge 500
or dye some yeezy's a different color and charge 1k..
I'm limiting the scope to that arena.

DMV had major major influence on today's sneaker game. When NY was still cleaning dirty AF1's w/ toothbrushes, the DC area was already fucking w/ sb's, foams & retro j's heavy.

Show some respect boy.

But y'all wore them with dad-jeans with rubber bands around the ankles, and swingman jerseys, so they didn't have the same impact.

cuffs thicker than knee pads... u could take off their jeans and swing them shits and knock a nig out and get arrested for using a deadly weapon"type cuff"

I went to college in the early to mid 00's with hella DC/PG/Virgina ni99as, so Mainman is spot-on referring to the sneakers they wore, but the rest of their outfits would be trash as hell.

A black T-shirt with a hood attached to it, with a Ninja Turtle headband on. We used to have jokes .
