Last year I totally switched up my sneaker game after seeing someone with Common Project sneakers.
Started with these:
those black jawns are clean, but they cost $425. Are they worth it?
What kicks you been rocking this summer?

They have sales at the end of the season. Right now they have a 50% off sale and they are going for $112. The bad news is that they aren't the same style pictured above. I did get 2 pairs of the latest style and don't really like them as much as the style pictured above.

Personally my absolute favorite shoes in this style are Lanvins. Comfortable as hell and I always get compliments on them. They usually go for $500 but I get them on Gilt.com for 280-300. I've never been a sneaker head and that is the most i've spent on sneakers but you just feel the quality of them. They are really sturdy but comfortable. You can just look at them and the construction and design screams quality.
Nah fam that started maybe mid to late 2000's I was alive for every jordan OG drop that ever dropped and it was a point in time when a new release jordan would sit for days weeks at a time. It wasn't until these wack ass retros started being shoved down the publics throat they started to sell out.
Now you niggas are just pissing on my leg and trying to tell me it's raining. By the time Coppers dropped foams were popular. You can go in the Sneaker Thread on THIS board, it goes back to 2010 or something, I was the ONLY nigga in there posting foams.
These are my still DEADSTOCK blue foams. You see the date on those, that's 10 years in a couple months. Don't play with me bout my kicks boy boy, I'm serious about mine. Y'all niggas tweaking, I'm done
Some of you cats aren't in the sneaker thread, you don't know any better... I do this
Salute right there homie from one og foam head to another I salute you. Im 34 and rock my foams heavy. I dont do alot of general releases but og colorways and most foams before 2012 im own heavy.
Easy there not sneakerheads lol. I see stockx.com making a huge push to the front though.
Why folks love mentioning new York falling off but ignore the millionss of real new York niggas
That moved to Atlanta making it hotlanta and all the fucking euro hipsters taking their place bringing nothing to the city but bike lanes and dog parks ...
You think Atlanta just got hot on its own....
Cmon on son check the time line....
Now the fags were already there tho...
They were infesting the place since jack the rapper days in the late eighties early ninties.
Not where I'm at .
Some of them are sitting now though
Atlantas homegrown music scene and Freak Nic are the two major components to contribute to its boom and popularity growth on a cultural and social level. Neither can be attributed to NY... Ill let you guess who (what cities transplants) started Freak Nic tho.
None that know better do.

cmon just stop..
freak nic been there for a minute, atlanta aint become hotlanta,
till new yorkers migrated out there by the millions...
so many of us were moving out there
they were blaming us for the rise in crime.... but now that
they got some flavor all that blaming new yorker shit died down..
You're ignorant as fuck... Not a rare trait from the new york brethren at all... so im not surprised. You cats moved south because you couldnt hack it in your own city and got tired of living like rats packed like sardines in shitty project housing and low rent apartments. And honestly, i have no issue with people moving to better their surroundings and situation, but when you start revisionist bullshit like you got the A poppin.. it grates on people who know better.
Wey bey gif here
I swear man. Cats think they invented life itself.. Making it all the funnier their current place of irrelevancy in the hip hop culture that they actually started.
sorry I aint even read all that emotion lol, its not even debatable...
atlanta became hotlanta after the mass migration of new yorkers set up shop...
just put your emotions to the side and check the timeline..
and so thats when they started calling atlanta hotlanta right...
come stop the denial...
it became hotlanta when new york niggas started moving out there.. in droves.... late eighties early nineties..
There we go! No better determiner of failure in debate on BGOL than the use of the "emotion" card. Losers resort to throwing out that white flag whenever they're getting their asses handed to them. Dumb ass nigga.
LOL,
awww wookie at the wittle name caller...
sticks and stones may break your bones, but
atlanta owes its current swag to new york....
it took that new york flavor to make it HOT!!!
its all good, you will get over it one day...
lol
Repeating dumb shit over and over doesnt make it true. You sound like an uninformed child... or typical loud mouth dumb ass NY nigga.LOL,
awww wookie at the wittle name caller...
sticks and stones may break your bones, but
atlanta owes its current swag to new york....
If new yorkers can make atl so hot... maybe they should divert those energies to making NY hot again.
My DC niggas still shittin on u NYC niggas
why we been there and done that..
we want backyards now nigga!!!
lol
wipe yo tears and get over it, just enjoy the fact,
atlanta got a lil swag now....
rejoice!!

nigs act like ny ain't got houses, townhouses, brownstones with backyards and grass..there's parts of queens/long island/staten island that would have u thinking ur in the south as far as nice houses wiith land...funny thing is people forget ny is a state and not juss a city..our outta borough places got a shit load of houses, land, scenery, etc..but hell in the 5 boroughs every borough got houses, townhouses, lofts, brownstones, etc
This shit still going, I forgot how angry NY makes some of you cats
I think it's silly to argue that all the transplants didn't have an impact on atlanta, I had cousins moving out there from here in late 80's and shit. I can't speak on Freaknic, as I was still a haploid cell at the time it started and still working out my times table in '91 and '93 when @Da Don says the best years were

duh lol
the hipstedr lake merritt you now know used to be freaknik
I was only a youth in the early 90s and was in New Jersey. I hear it used to go down until niggas started shooting and looting stores.
i wasn't there lol
i was a kid too. and it went down until white people started trying to gentrify it. wasn't no shooting and looting it was just black folks at the lake.
something they didn't want.
NYC cats really think NYC is the center of the universe. The worst are people who MOVED from NYC and STILL claim NYC is the best place in the world.
Im convinced they dont see the hypocrisy (and hilarity) in their predicament.
Nah, it was nothing like Freaknik but it was the event of the year for mingling to get phone numbers. The Adams Point Society( old white folks that lived in the area) had been working to get rid of it for years because it attracted so many black folks.Thinking back, many of the complains were similar to 1st Friday complaints but 1st Friday is way more white. There was rarely violence but somebody got shot one year and they ran with shutting it down. With the new demographics of Oakland I can see it being brought back but not hardly like it was.
guess it's like when foreigners tell you how great their country is and how american women especially american black women ain't shit and how great their women is back home..yet they in america and have no woman that they can claim as their wife back home..but their country is great and so is their women
