bruh why you attacking me with the paragraphsOk so what do you like about it? Honest question. You don’t listen to the Wu or never heard of them so why try to get this shoe specifically?
I don’t skate but have SBs cuz the colors are dope and i was around when they started blowing up with the Supas, Reese Forbes, chocolate, etc. So owning them is about liking the shoe itself and its colorway.
So i ask again, why go for this specific shoe if you have no attachment to what it represents, to the sneaker heads and Wu fans that remember the drop and clamored for them? I’m guessing you like the colors so why not go after a pair of 2020 iowas or the Jordan pollens? Both are the same color blocking, shape etc and can be had for less stress.
If you are about the hype say it, then it makes sense but don’t say you don’t like Wu-Tang but want the shoe but want to play the oh you old head gatekeeper card, when Nike has already made 2 identical alternatives.
I’ve known about the 99s. Been watching Wu tang since the 2000s on MTV, considering that I was a teen at the time. But I’m not as hardcore as others. I’m saying Im not typically uniformed about sneakers or something I like buying, its not like I never heard about such things. I’m not the guy lining up for a raffle and say whats this about? And also its tough seeing people who are more into it, unable to get it for retail.
