Exactly why I NEVER wear shoes the year they come out, because everyone is going to wear them immediately. Oh these shoes just came out, let me wear them out so everyone knows I have them. I was just looking at an old picture and realized I hadn't worn my Thunder IV's yet when I got them 3 years back.Just wore mine for the first time out in Vegas at the Summer Sixteen tour this past Sunday. I went TTS and was worried about the fit because when I wore these around the house on release day for 20 minutes they felt a lil tight. But to my surprise after 4 hours of wear they were REALLY comfortable, even with the force fields that I put in.
The funny thing is, literally EVERYBODY, and I mean EVERYBODY, was wearing the banned 1's and the Cement 4's at the show. Everybody in T-Mobile arena had them joints on. I only seen one person wearing the metallic 5's. Really satisfied with this shoe
Would it trip you out that other people thought like you and wore a shoe that you waited to wear the same day you decided to wear them?

One or two people having the same shoe as I do the day I wear mine is fine, but masses having the shoe on the same day. Plus I don't rock with just Jordan's like that, the chance of someone having on the Bo Jackson Broken Bats, the unofficial New York Knicks Air Force 1's, Megatron Huarache's on, etc are slim as it is. Nevermind they are where I am at wearing them the same day. Headed to Vegas on Tuesday for a week, no way am I taking a pair of J's that came out this year for the trip. I will take my more obscure Nike's on the trip.

Oh word, perhaps I will wear them this week while picking up last minute items to see if it happens.My Thunder IV's from three years ago are still DS too, @TitanG545. I just know that the midsole is gonna crack miserably, when I decide to bring em out.

, I do the same thing. It's whatever though. Wear them whenever you want.
Concur, giving yourself options it feels great. The funny thing is you still "snap necks" when you just sit on the shoes for a few years.Me personally, I'm past the "snapping necks" phase. I've done it, it's cool but it does nothing for me. If that's your thing then cool. I mainly do it because I don't want to quickly ruin a shoe then would want another pair, then wind up paying an arm and a leg in the aftermarket (which I strongly oppose in general), or wait until the shoe is released again and pay the markup price. In some cases, it's unavoidable though sadly.

I don't have a pair either, however if they drop to $190 I will pick up a pair. Have you thought of putting pictures of the shoes on the outside of the box or container.Me personally, I'm past the "snapping necks" phase. I've done it, it's cool but it does nothing for me.

Options are always great. Sometimes I forget I have stuff until I go looking for a particular pair and run into another. I also maintain each pair and clean them after each wear as much as I can, it preserves the shoe better than most would think and it's simple. What's funny is people usually tend to notice the simpler cws of a shoe and not the gimmick/hyped stuff.
All this being said, I still haven't gotten a pair of Metallics. I originally said no to them, but they have been looking good on the people I've seen have them on. My 07's need a little refreshing and are wearable still but a fresh pair wouldn't hurt. The resale prices are pretty much retail for some pairs too right now.

^ Nah lol. I don't do the picture thing. I like to read the box and the actual shoe name and colorway that's on the box. I can't add all the new little things people have added over the years as shoes have become even more popular. The shoes that I do have with pictures on the outside of the box, I have bought from other people and that's how the pair came, I just wound up keeping the pics on those. As funny as it sounds, the pics kinda ruin the moment when you open the box and see the shoe. I like seeing the shoe after I open the box top, even if I've seen it a million times. If this makes any sense at all. Now I sound crazy .
I know when I finally decided to try my BC 4's from 2012 on last year, with a couple of outfits... I got a crack in the medial side of the right shoe, on the black midsole, almost immediately. Both of the heels and medial sides are cracked heavily now.
