anyone else losing interest in SNEAKERS?

[10 piece nuggets]

Im starting to get out of that sneaker phase too. Im selling my collection, but keeping a few of my SB's and Jordans that I really like. Getting nicershoes now for a more casual look. I think im going to quit the graphic tee game. Atleast til the Spring/Summer.

 

[sosmoove]

I'll always be a sneakerhead by heart, hell I grew up in Jordans when I didn't even know what I was wearing. As I begin wearing them fewer and fewertimes, I just don't see the need for a Surplus of kicks. I'll be 24 next week, from now on im only buying what I consider "A Must".

Edit: You can find me in a pair of Concords until I'm 45..........no seriously......

Yeah basically. I agree with buying only what I feel is a must as well. Those Spacejams...

 

[killmatic07]

I kind of am too, like some of my sneakers I look at think that they're not that cool anymore. Put on my foams today and just weren't feeling em smh.

 

[nationaltruckerdave]

a little bit.. i get all the 90s nike basketball kicks in the OG colors.. the last pair of jordans i copped were the aqua 8s.. ill be getting the space jamsand white/red 12s tho..

 

[physicx]

im not losing interest, i just dont have the money anymore

i still frequent the nike and nike retro forums but not quite as much anymore. not checking for jordan except for the space jams

 

[mercenary x]

Quality over quantity, as long as I buy sneaker that I REALLY LOVE then I won't ever loose interest.

The sneakers that I don't have, but I really want, fuel me to go out and find it.

[josebronx]

nahh...

 

[andoneflip]

im just copping 2 pairs of space jams then im out the game

 

[dabuddhawitjays]

Never... Even if I entirely part with my collection.

Always will still have a little something for them.

I did it before. Sold ALL my shoes, didn't buy any for about a year and a half. Then slowly started buying more.

I'm repeating the process again.

 

[finnns2003]

eh, i've already sold 90% of my collection. the last time i got excited

about buying a pair of sneakers were getting the matsuri am 95 360 in tokyolast year...


happens when you grow up.

It definitely was for a lot of people.

I don't know about the majority of NT but for a lot of folks out there...it was definitely a fad.

Same here G.

Copped Black/Purp Barkleys, Eggplant Foams and Black/Cement 3's this year. That's it. Big $%% decrease from previous years.

SJ's and White/Red XII's I have to buy. After that...I'm done for the year.

Might cop one or two more next year and that's it...

Yup me too the JB thread is pretty much dead to me. I used to have like 30 pairs most practically all of them were DS. School started and then I was like fthis I don't even want to wear em. So I just sell em to black people.

[brooklynnyc3000]

Something like that, lol. I can't really remember, but it was hilarious.

Thanks 10eazye

Oh yeh, I just want to add this: It was an epic battle in the Hypebeast Thread, indeed.

Exactly when you have a genuine love for sneakers it just never goes away, people just need to stop buying into the gimmicks and hype

[fenixconnexion.]

[ricekrispies420]

changing my style of dressing too. slowly looking more business like..

 

[iluvjordanxi]

I would still wear Jordans if I had the money for it

but sadly I don't so I'm just up in general killing time...
