Was at Baileys for the fight slide around the back just to check to see if cats was lining up and they had the fat Tuesday baracades up with people in chairs and umbrellas chilling lol. Shot over to New Market which is usually a older crowd b/c of the area and the scalley, nothing but kids out there with their parents in the whip. I mean 13,14 yrs old like my momma would never have let me post up in front a store for 7 hrs 
... Shot down to Williamsburg a bunch of kids posted parents in the whip so had to smoke a L and wire my homie the bread so he can cop tommorrow when he go to work. I felt like a old man out there tonight lmao

To be honest i don't think It was ever really that easy to get kicks and age is irrelevant. -- i been buying sneakers for along time and i use to be able to get them on the day of release just walk in anytime they most likely had ya size but by the end of the day all the pairs were gone. I'm 25 now but when i was in HS every Monday on a release of a jordan sneaker every kid had a pair and some kids would pay extra to get them early and rock them on the Friday.
Now a days you just need to be quicker because more people want em and more kids got money -- Back in the day you saved or worked for your jordans and not everyone just had money to blow on a new pair every couple of weeks (hence why you could just walk in and get a pair) -- Now a days kids as young as 13 get whatever they want from their parents or they could even start a website and make bread on the side. Little kids also have a tenancy to follow and if everyone else is getting something they follow the trend and they will find a way to get it as we would have done back in the day (Cut the grass, do favors, get a side job after school etc) -- I remember i worked my *** off to get a pair of Jordans -- its just kids have it very easy now so of course they going to cop everything that comes out -- My moms woulda slapped me had i asked her for $160 for a pair of kicks but today these kids get whatever they want -- but if your mother gave you whatever you wanted you would be outside camping to since you have no priorities and don't know the true value of a dollar. There were times where i saved up and didn't want to buy the new sneakers anymore cause i worked so hard for the money id rather have the cash instead of being broke with new sneakers on my feet.
Just saying times really haven't changed its just people got more money lol

Yea you right but its all supply vs demand -- more kids buying kicks and nike making the same amount means you gotta be the first to get them. If nike ramped up production and sneakers were sitting people wouldn't be in a rush to buy them. Nike creates a sense of urgency to get them or you will miss out! -- If nike made a few 1000 more they would be sitting and nike doesn't want sneakers to sit they want sell out after sell out which looks good to the higher ups.

Took a ride through Manhattan this morning and all the major stores had cheese lines wrapped around the corner deep. Can't believe dudes are really camping for Olympic 7's.

I've been in San Jose for 6 years now and the last time i picked up Jordans in the mall were for the DMP 11 & 12's and was not successful. San Jose is a shady place for picking up sneakers...... online is your best choice if you don't have a hook up.
