Thats what I did and now Im down to about 45 pairs, a lot of which are doubles. I dont think Im ever going to sell every shoe in my collection but one day, Im obviously going to stop coppin. No age is ever too old my dude. Just my 2 cents.

I have sold off all my Js, roughly 200, except for my personal favorites- VI Black Lows, IX Navy Lows, XVII Lightning Lows, RJ Bolo, Jordan Enhancer, Stealth XX3 and Motorsport XX3. All of which I wear.
In the past two years, I have started to collect Air Max 95s (12 pair) , Kobes (7 pair) and Foamposites (4 pair). Collecting meaning stockpile for future use, since I intend to wear them.
I do resell on the side to help fund my shoe habit. Nothing major, but if I can flip a few shoes a month and make $300 profit, that is a potential 2-3 pairs I can buy for my own personal consumption.
My golden rule is to ONLY use money I make from reselling shoes to buy shoes in my collection. It has not always been like this, but I had to create some kind of self-imposed limit.
The fact is, I could EASILY drop 10k on shoes and still want more. I'll always love shoes. I just deal with this love differently in my advanced years.
That is very true. But if you can make a few bucks selling new releases, it helps. Even if you only make $20-$30 profit a pair, it adds up.Originally Posted by KB8virginia

YEAH...THAT IS WHAT I DO, I SELL SOME KICKS THAT I DON'T REALLY WEAR AND THE PROFIT I BUY FOR THE NEW ONES COMING OUT, BUT THERE COMES A POINT THAT YOU RAN OUT OF YOUR KICKS TO SELL COZ' EVERY SHOE REMAINING HAS MORE VALUE TO YOU. I WOULD NOT HAVE 2 CDP 11/12'S IF I DID NOT SELL 4-5 PAIRS OF KICKS....
Great point.Originally Posted by AIRCARTMAN
