Kawhi really made the NB brand cool. That was a smart move by them.

my little brother just hit me yesterday, back to school shopping, asking me to buy him those NBs 
I thought they would’ve stayed regional forever

Don't plan on ever buying a pair, but every NB collab I see is fire.

Its weird
I have been wearing NBs since I came to the states in 2000
For decades my friends and family not from DC, NOVA or Baltimore would refer to my NBs as old man shoes
The other day by co-worker told me I was wearing kids shoes

Nike and resellers made everything too limited and difficult to attain.
Waking up early in the morning to take an L on the snkrs app got old quickly.
Raffles and morning lineups while the backdoor the shoes in front of everyone.
I’m just trying to buy some shoes not be line with some 11 year old talking about yeezys are the goat shoe. Little homie wasn’t even born when they came out.

NB amd Asics have really found the perfect spot between functional and casual/fashionable.
How long it lasts, who knows but the competition is needed.

Not even trying to be funny, but they signed Jack Harlow a few years back and that helped I feel with the youth and tik tok generation

Seems like the goal in 2012 was to break up the Thunder. Woj has wrote in the past Kobe was telling Westbrook he should have his own team too and be a scoring champ.
It’s what the media & klutch is was doing in 2018 & 2019 to KD….
You see the common thread….i find it funny. But I digress

I wouldn't say it's their base, but they've definitely shifted a little more towards the younger crowd over the past decade, whereas in the past it was mostly a brand associated with running, not too unlike Asics.
They've signed celebs like Storm Reid, Jack Harlow, etc for that reason.

Shows you the love that these countries have for the game. Imagine if that would have beaten the US?.....

I knew companies weren't making shoes for me and my demographic anymore when they started selling them "pre-dirty." I spent my entire youth trying to be "clean" 
and you want me to spend $200 on some dusty yellow ****?

Give Bron, Wade and Kobe statues in Seattle for their hard work
Hope someone drop some gems to Chet and Jdubb next

My best friends from growing up own a shoe store outside the City.
I was just there Sunday. The sizes that bring him the most money are as 7-8. All he talks about is kids wanting NB’s now tho. How he’s going to have to switch it up. Blah blah.
They’re tight.
How are Olympic VI’s STILL in stores right now. I get they retroed a couple times but this is crazy.

I work at Champs on the weekends. NB's are def hot with the youth. But like others have said, trends come and go. Obviously there are people who have been wearing NB's just like there were people have been wearing Nike Dunks before they blew up in 2020. But every shoe has its "Mainstream run" if you may.

Speaking of dunks. I remember when I was 15/16 my local skateshop had the Paris SB Dunks for $1500. A friend of mine and I were trying to put our money together and buy them.
Other day I saw a pair on ebay for $125,000. There's no way thats how much they go for now.

another reason canada is never beating these teams when it count.
They want it way way more. they always play harder because of it.

They have a hell of a roster rn too across all sports tbh
They've got Bukayo Saka from Arsenal, Shohei Ohtani, Coco Gauff, Sydney Mclaughlin, Jamal Murray, Maxey and Cam Brink under their banner.
I see their 'We Got Now' ads with all those guys all the time online
, not surprised they're actually making inroads with their targeted audience
