What kicks you been rocking this summer?

[tallblacknyc]

So New Yorker's didn't wear Uptown's?

if 5 people from ny wore uptowns that means some ny'ers wore them rite??? yes there were ny'ers that had uptowns..was it our go to shoe no it wasn't..some nyers wore buster browns also was buster browns the representation of ny no... there were way more kicks getting burn

 

[cli-terminator]

You keep typing and it just shows you don't know about sneakers.

So every store in New York sold out...because you went to EVERY store?

So even though in Jersey and CT they weren't selling out, they sold out EVERY WHERE in New York?

Are you really saying that? The city with more sneaker stores than anybody?

Man shut the fuck up. At least you could not show you're full of shit by saying well the IX's and X's sat. Then you might have some credibility. Now google some shit and try and try and figure out why 9's and 10's fell flat.

If you were trying to cop J's in NY the only spots you would have hope of copping a pair would be the low key mom & pop shops that had the kicks wrapped up in plastic and charged an extra $50 minimum because they knew all the main spots were already sold out of them. Those same spots would sell them ahead of release date as well.

Uptowns were played by 95/96. We stopped rocking them well before everyone else did. Then Nelly came out with his Air Force 1s song and katts started acting like they were the newest hype. By that time, Uptowns went from the solid colors we rocked to a fucking rainbow of colors splashed on to the same sneaker.

So 95/96 wasn't the 90's

wtf does jersey and conn have to do with ny..u kno them nigs are completely diff from us rite..there is no similarities with those states from ny..hell u can go to nj rite now and think u in the south with some of them nigs accent..never compare ny with nj/conn again

 

[POSTERBOY]

there was several air max that nigs wore in ny..there's a bunch of diff kicks ny nigs wore..a bunch of posters from ny as well as myself already said a bunch..we said jordans, barkley, air max, foams, pennys, barry/deion sanders, bo jackson, huraches, griffeys, etc.. all those kicks plus more got crazy burn..way more burn than the air force 1's..think ur not from here are you really arguing with people from the state that were born and raised

Auburn Bo Jackson's.... WOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

In my top 10, I love this colorway! Damn shame I didn't snatch up more pairs when they released, I won't make that mistake the next time

 

[tallblacknyc]

So 95/96 wasn't the 90's

if 5 nigs wore uptowns in the 90's that mean somebody in ny brought some..i never said nobodyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy brought a pair... i said they wasn't the go to at all as far as people into fashion..there were way more sales for other kicks than those

 

[cli-terminator]

Yes and by that time it was a wrap for rocking Uptowns even during the summer unless you were going to an All White Party.

Because your argument is stupid...so stupid you can't tell when I'm clowning you

If you know about sneakers you know where to get them from if you really want them

But you don't know about sneakers...you're just arguing

 

[cli-terminator]

I had a pair of these. Just sucked when you got the crease in the front

but the kicks you're naming were only hot for a year....because by next year the new model came out

You don't seem to get that

For example the SC was released in 90. Then they moved on to the Trainer 2, 3....

 

[cli-terminator]

I remember around 96/97 these were one of the kicks on almost every third person's feet during the summer in various colorways

It's cool you got straps on your kicks, since you're 50...you'll be needing them soon

Do you feel like a bama wearing the kicks you do?

 

[Amajorfucup]

And they almost always did. Never understood why they insisted on that stiff bad leather that hard creased so soon.

You're arguing against shit fam clearly didn't say, you've been doing that this whole thread and it's anyone's guess why he's bothering to even respond to your bullshit theories. You weren't here, plain and simple, we don't care what you saw on rap city, in the source and word up magazines you used to cop... none of that. Actual New York niggas are telling you that all white air force one's weren't what YOU make them out to be here, not that nobody wore them, they weren't what YOU'RE making them out to be. Just let it go fam, you're arguing shit you read/heard and deduced VS. niggas that actually lived it

 

[shaddyvillethug]

Hell you can split Manhattan up into multiple identies in its own right. Harlem & Washington Heights for example had polar opposite styles

All y'all niggas the same b

 

[cli-terminator]

Yeah all those cross trainers creased terribly in the front. If I'm not mistaken it wasn't til the Griffey's popularity that we started seeing more trainers coming out abandoning that stiff ass leather

DFOH. You could always tell a Harlem katt from a Washington Heights katt from a BK katt, from a Jamaica, Queens katt from a BX katt. Every area had a unique twist on their style especially Harlem.

Question for you

so people in Harlem and the Bronx dressed like those in Queens and Brooklyn?

 

[Amajorfucup]

Yup. Medicine balls retro'ed a year or two ago with the same bullshit cardboard leather and creasing fuckery.

Been waiting for you to ask this. Response should be entertaining if not outright hilarious.

 

[djpolo]

Good info on here. My shoe game is weak.

 

[cli-terminator]

I remember when katts would get clowned for wearing the regular construction timbs that didn't have the leather by the ankle. The soles were beyond cheap and wore down quick as hell. You'd be rocking the ill lean every time you walked

Dude went to every store. Looked at everyones feet.
