you from Cali too!?
and ya'll need to quit with the "don't want creases so they can sell as VVVVVVVVVNDS"... like I said, I think it must be cultural. Cuz most of who I work and move around don't do creases in kicks, or dirty kicks period. Similar to how you don't leave the house wrinkled and dirty, your shoes aren't going to be wrinkled or dirty. My mom and 'nem grew up in the projects, and when they were bussed to schools outside their neighborhood they were judged HEAVILY by their appearance. I never forget my mom telling me that's when she found out they were poor--the moment they went to school with other people. So, they instilled that in the following generation---you always look your best. ALWAYS. Hair, clothes, shoes. I remember getting fussed at for coming home and my clothes being too dirty (my grandma was southern old school) My cousins and I used to walk funny tryna not crease our K-swiss or AF 1s. Before force fields we used to stuff socks in the toe (old heads where ya'll at? ) And the toothbrush was brought out after every wear (unless it was a black shoe) . We didn't get dope shoes often so when we did best believe we were gonna make them L.A.S.T. AND we didn't wanna hear our mama's talking about "how them shoes messed up---I JUST BOUGHT THEM!" How you took care of your shoes determined IF you were gonna get the same caliber shoe the next time it was time for shoe shopping.
Famous line in Stevie Wonder "living just enough"... her clothes are old, but never are they dirty That's how I was raised.
Now am I OD with bags and tape on the bottom? Nah. Do I still bust out the tooth brush after every wear? No. I also am not running around on the bball court or playground any more either. However, I still do a lot of walking. So, gotta take care of those creases.
Idk why I went all in with the explanation, but I felt it necessary to offer at least some intelligent insight as to why force fields and such are so popular. I mean c'mon, how long have they been around?? Way before the whole "resell" craze even began.
I remember doing the "sock fold"! I wear a smaller size now than I did in middle school lol what was I thinking?!you from Cali too!?

not sure u can count either of those cuz not many people even had them to give them a start to fall offShaqs n starburys!?
Only shoes that really fell off are flacks, (joe Montana) fila that I can think of all other brands have always had their niche and following.
Puma still there
Addidas still there
NB best trainers out hype seems to be comming back
List goes on....
Losing hype doesn't equal falling off
yuppp basically anything smaller then a 8.5 & anything higher then like a 12 have smaller production numbers
Just wondering but does nike manufacture less size 13s than other sizes of dunks, my local has missed out on size 13 a few times now on QSs.
Ive seen 16's floating around I think.Seriously, what biggest size you can get in Jordan's and NSW?
