SMH, some of y'all just want to argue to argue or hate yourselves.
Sneaker culture has always been an "urban" thing. In the 90s it was black and latinos lining up or having mad shoes, white people weren't out there waiting on line and ****. I don't give a **** about white people designing or making shoes. I don't give a **** about some white celebs wearing a few shoes. White people looked at you crazy if you had 10-20 pairs of shoes. Let's not play stupid and like y'all were in elementary or high school and white kids had 20-30 pairs of shoes cause they didn't. I've literally had white people tell me that other white people made fun of them for having a few pairs of shoes and saying they wanted to be black. Like come on, y'all sound crazy as hell. 2010+ is when you started seeing mad white kids wearing mad shoes and ****.
Hahahaha I believe we're the same age my G. I agree 100% with you. I worked at a Nike retail store for 9 years part-time. Around 2010 was when the demographics shifted to the camp you described.
Kanye wearing AJ 1s and AJ 3s along with the (low quality) CDPs in 2008 is when the 'sneaker culture' and 'sneakerhead' trash started getting out of hand.
