Buddy, welcome to the club. I had that exact revalation last year, and I've already sold 25 pairs of my DS shoes. Can't off load the majority of the rest of my collection fast enough. While I'll always love shoes, and will purchase certain pairs (carmine 6, Fire Red 4, any Agassi or Bo OG retro, old flights, etc) the impulse purchases are DONE! And truthfully, I feel better for it. It's getting harder & harder to get things, due to all the hypebeasts and people wanting to get their "Instagram flex" for likes. Not me!
After about 31 years of tracking down sneakers on a constant basis, I'm done! Just looking for other avenues to help sell other shoes I have that may be barely worn or of other brands. Like you mentioned with health issues, I too have LOADS of them (Crohn's & I'm a transplant patient) and in the end, it's not worth the stress.
I wanted these, I was busy, and missed. Saw the notification for direct to cart on NDC. Went there, had the 11.5 in my cart, but I couldn't do it. So be it. I'll see if it's possible to track down the "Morpho" pair from China (love that color way the most anyhow) but if I don't, I'm okay. Even going to sell my blue voids among MANY MANY MANY other pairs. The hobby just isn't what is used to be. But I feel better for it. The $$$ I get for all my shoes will be used for other things, especially with what's going on in the world. I just don't need all this extra stuff.
All the shoe stuff aside, I hope you’re hanging in there, man. My wife has had both a heart and kidney transplant, so I know something about the challenges transplant patients face. Respect for getting through it.
