Kicks

Post by Deleted User 289 »

Devonte' is a huge sneaker head and posts pics of what he gets when he gets them. I am always jealous.
Nike hooks him up big time.
I think someone posted about the Air Diors but I can't find the post.
He just got a pair I think during the All-Star break.
They are $2000 a pair retail.
Haven't dropped (been released) yet. People are seriously offering $25,000 for them. CRAZY!

I'm always interested in seeing/hearing what other people have. PLEASE share anything you have that you really like on this tread. I know, that's opening a can of worms but have at it.


I'm no Devonte' but I hit the 70 mark today.

4 most recent pairs I acquired.

Copped these today

Bought these two pairs on StockX a couple of weeks ago.

Was lucky and got these. People were paying up to $1200 for them. I was dumb and kept them.

But that's just silly.

and even that often seems like two too many

Yeah, so glad I don't feel the need to wow someone with my sneakers.

All i wear are boots. Work, cowboy, hunting or muck. I cant remember the last time i wore sneakers or anything other than boots.

I do have several pairs of jordans feom years ago when I thought they were worth spending money on. Most of them have been worn once or not at all.i need to sell themand recoup some of that lost and wasted money.

I would still like a pair of concords.

I'm glad you're glad.
Seems at times you feel a need to "wow" people with your vehicles, homes, travels, etc.
To each their own.
If you don't care about the "sneaker culture", and how/why people enjoy it, and that many people make a great living because of it, fantastic and so be it.
I happen to be someone who does care about it. Feel free to fault me for it if you choose to do as such.

I don't know what turtle means - nor do I know what KFC means when you post it.

Not sure what you feel is silly. The $2000 pair of shoes?
My shoes and the excessive amount I have?
Shoes?

Seems that's all you really need.
Anything you have that you like to "collect", a "hobby", something you spend money on and definitely have "too many" of?
I have an obsessive personality so I go in waves. It's been mostly clothing and music related stuff for me.

The money wasn't really wasted if you sell them. I might be a buyer. If not, I would find you one.

Coincidently, last night LeBron wore the Virgil Abloh Off White Jordan 5s that are in my last photo in the original post on this thread.

I agree.
Crazy thing with these is that supposedly only 1000 pairs are being sold and as I said, there are people willing to pay $25,000 (or more) for them when they can't get buy one of the 1000 pairs "retail".
I guess this is another perfect example of my saying, "those who can - do".

Pro tip: They're worth whatever someone will pay for them.

Oh for sure.
Don’t be the looser that pays that money for sneakers you won’t wear.
