Yeah y'all take this too seriously.
i don't care if people resell, because i'm not buying resale unless its an old shoe for at or slightly above (like +20% at most) of retail.
No one should die. i just think that the guys who are flipping a quarter to half of some peoples salaries in shoes, could be making some nice money other ways. It wouldn't be instant gratification, but would be a great come up for them
But thats their choice, i'm gonna like or want another pair of shoes or clothes less than a week from now more than i want these.

Kanye also said that his shoes wouldn't come in multiple colors lol, that a ton of colors for special occasions seasons etc were lame.
Y'all need to stop using his word as gospel, even sarcastically.

Additionally, Mylan has lobbied federal and state governments for legislation requiring epipens in schools, so they are using taxpayer money to guarantee certain level of mandate on demand. That birch is scum.

Sneakers aren't ruined because of resellers.
Getting to the root it's hype.
Sneakers are still thriving and interesting if you aren't just chasing the hyped releases.
better than ever i'd say

That phrase "he's ruining the Sneaker game" is Garbage.
That's a state of mind you put yourself, when things aren't to your liking.
Don't poison yourself like that!

What does karma have to do with reselling a shoe. Guy is doing nothing wrong or hurtful to anyone. Just hate basically to suggest he should die for selling a shoe over retail lol. I hate guys like solemarty and these Internet grouts more then this guy realtalk

I agree it isn't the best example. I'm just trying to use an example of something that can be flipped for immense profits (Yzy purchased at $220 that can be sold for $1k+ = 400%+ profit in 1 day) by people using backdoor connections / existing wealth.
I'm not all about socialism or anything, and I really don't care about people reselling - especially when they have tons of buyers willing to spend that much. I just don't like the fact that people that actually want the shoes to wear, cannot get them because they're all snatched up by backdoor deals / bots / etc.
It is what it is, though. If I don't get them for retail (goes for any pair), I'm just not interested in getting them.

You can tell its flex when they take pics of the shoes instead of the money or things they buy
just a hint.
Don't give them the attention they're seeking

Every blue moon, Nike and Jordan Brand release a hyped retro like the OG WC4s and Bred 1s this year (along with Space Jams and Black Toe 1s releasing soon)... Adidas has wisely controlled supply pretty tightly for it's hyped sneakers so you rarely see them sitting. I'm not sure how many units they are pushing but Jordan Brand is definitely pushing more retros, especially the garbage ones (basically every retro+ cw) that end up selling in Nike outlet stores.

Smh@ya'll that's checking another man's pockets.
If you'd check your pockets, you wouldn't be on this thread worrying about eating.
If you pull in six figures, flipping items (houses, shoes, cars, stocks, or anything else that doesn't harm people) then let me hang with you. Teach me so I can go find something to flip.
