I'm 38 years old... at my age it is not cool to have a bunch of shoes.
I collect because I have a passion for Air Jordans. I have been wearing Jordans since 1985, when I was a year younger than this kid. I wore them because my hero, Michael Jordan wore them. I was allowed 1 pair per year to play ball in, because I was raised by a single mother, who was a teacher and, not only could not afford more than that, but refused to buy more shoes for a kid whom she knew would grow out of them by the following year. I have a story behind almost every pair of Jordans I own and almost every pair of Jordans I own has special meaning to me.
At 38, I don't care what is cool to others. That's what makes me a sneakerhead. What makes his bunch of shoes lame, is that he has them because he thinks it's cool... and that's the only reason he has them.
Okay? Okay.
PS: nobody wants to hear a 13 year old rap about clothes and girls. Nobody. Why? Because HE IS 13 YEARS OLD!
