What’s the backstory on the lucha libre dunks? I can’t find any info about them anywhere. Thanks in advance.

my 2 cents is that having thousands of pairs of sneakers doesn't make you a "sneakerhead", and only having 5-10 pairs doesn't mean you're not.

Yeah, it's not about quantity, but rather the "passion" (short for having appreciation for the shoes for other qualities other than exclusivity and popularity) that defines a "sneakerhead."

I don't consider or call myself a "sneakerhead." I'm just a guy who likes shoes that couldn't care less about all of the other stuff associated with them.

Well, FWIW I dont want to be lumped into "sneakerhead" culture if that includes unbreakable kicks, foamer, and countless other losers.

Back on the subject of rehashing older sb's
Remember when some shops got certain sizes of rehashed older models.
Saw rehash futura lows recently and was so jelly

Anyone know where I can get some dunks for the low? I don't care about the colorway, just want a pair to skate.

So so many places. Skateshops, ebay, goat, stockx, select other boutiques like concepts have SB accounts. I'm assuming if you skate you know some skateshops but if not, some big ones that ship are CCS, tactics, active, premier, so many more. You'll have to do your own research to see who's got em the cheapest.

I personally hate the term “Sneakerhead” and what it’s become.
I’m just a dude that likes shoes.

I kinda was thinking Nike was cooking up new old pairs
But if that was the case why didn’t they cook stuff up for the 15th anniversary give away thing
Would be neat to see what (if anything) they have locked away
I feel like no way are Nike sponsored athletes spending stacks on hard to find pairs.... doesn’t make sense for Nike to buy up pairs to seed people when they could make a pair for $50 (or more but not $2000+ for WTDs for Travi$) could he buy his own? Of course.... but why would he
I forget who it was but wasn’t someone wearing some older dunk highs in a bigger size that were impossible to find? Kyrie maybe? Or is he a 13? But even still I’m thinking it was one of those never seen in that size before kind of things

can't say how it is for other celebs, but

and I had posited that project blitz was floating pairs to travis and nike was compensating them directly.

Glad to see I’m not the only one that rejects that wack *** label. I get asked all the time by my students “are you a sneakerhead?” I just answer “naw, I just have a lot of shoes” and keep it pushing.

You’re right. Being a “hypebeast” is absolutely a cool thing. They play Roblox (which is basically an open sandbox Minecraft for the uninitiated) and all the time they dress their avatars in hypebeasty ish from head to toe. Hospital type masks, printed tops and bottoms, clashy kicks and fits, bogo stuff that’s clearly mimicking Supreme, fake looking Gucci and other designer brands, it’s ridiculous. I even joke with them about being hypebeasts and they wear that ish like a badge of honor. I mean, I’m 33, so clearly I’m supposed to be out of the “loop” in terms of their culture, but it does look crazy to me.
