Inflation excuse is BS
Why? I’m paying more for absolutely everything. I’m going to assume we all are. That’s life. That means businesses are paying more for raw materials. It’s valid. The numbers are the numbers.

I know you know it's not that serious lol. It's simple, stop buying. I've had my fair share over the years, walking away doesn't give me that feeling of missing out. But that changes for someone in their teens or 20s that are buying. For me, the culture has always been basketball, that's what I love and that's why I love kicks. That has obviously changed over the years (for various reasons), and from this perspective, the basketball shoe culture BEEN gentrified (no stupid pun intended), so for me, what I loved about it has been long gone. They are making it easier to just walk away.

The quality on these are awful. When I picked mine up. I noticed there was a tiny mark on the patent leather that wasn’t coming off. Took them swapping out multiple left and right shoes until I got one that looked fine. I can tell the employees were judging me but I don’t care.
 
Anyone else’s SNKRS APP showing this? Feb 26 6:46?

Let em judge.
If their ok throwing away coin doesnt have to be our choice. Was a big release date while on the job shouldnt be anything new to them.
 
I went to DTLR around 230 yesterday n got a pair. It’s crazy it’s no hype for these, but I’m glad because this was the easiest “Christmas 11” release ever. I then went to the mall in Columbia and I saw hella footlocker employees with previous 11 releases. Mainly the black pair with the silver on the eyelets. These def sitting they was in every store and they all had them on multiple displays.

Hype for holiday 11s is nowhere near what it used to be.

Kinda weird because the 11s are one of the only OG retro models Nike/JB aren’t flooding the market with in terms of cws.

Not really sure why they’ve lost popularity-maybe the high retail price?
