I SOLD 99.3% OF MY SNEAKER COLLECTION BACK IN 2015/16…. I JUST GOT TO A POINT WHERE I KEPT ASKING MYSELF, “WT* IS THE POINT OF HAVING ALL THESE DAMN SHOES?” I HAD SO MUCH DS STUFF IT MADE NO SENSE.
I GRADUATED COLLEGE IN 2011, AND THATS WHERE THE BULK OF MY SNEAKER WEARS TOOK PLACE. SO IT BECAME GOING TO WORK EVERYDAY AND SNEAKER WEARS BECAME LESS AND LESS BUT PURCHASES WERE STILL UP
.
ONE DAY I WOKE UP AND SAID “IM SELLING ALL THIS S***, F IT” SO I SOLD BASICALLY EVERYTHING, WHOLE KOBE, LEBRON, KD COLLECTION, LOTS OF JORDANS AND OTHER MISC STUFF. I KEPT VERY FEW PAIRS.
FAST FORWARD TO PRESENT DAY, I WORK 5DAYS A WEEK, AND MY FOOTWEAR IS BOOTS.
ON MY OFF DAYS IM IN CROCS OR FLIP FLOPS.
I RARELY GO OUT, SO I RARELY WEAR THE KICKS I HAVE BUT I HAVE BEEN GETTING BETTER AT WEARING THEM AND NOT HAVING SO MUCH DS STUFF. I PROBABLY HAVE 40-50 PAIRS TOTAL NOW, AND I OFTEN TIMES SELL STUFF RANDOMLY.
I GOT INTO NEW BALANCES LAST YEAR AND WENT CRAZY AND BOUGHT LIKE 8-9 PAIRS OVER 10ISH WEEKS OR SO
. BUT THEN I SOLD 3-4PAIRS IMMEDIATELY. SO I HAVE 6 PAIRS OF NB’S AND ONLY 2 ARE DS.
MOST OF MY JORDANS(7-8 PAIRS) ARE NOT DS.
AS YOU GET OLDER, THINGS OF IMPORTANCE CHANGE. SO RIGHT NOW AT 36YRS OLD, I DONT REALLY CARE A WHOLE LOT ABOUT SNEAKERS. YES I HAVE MORE THAN THE AVERAGE JOE, BUT ITS NOT OUT OF CONTROL LIKE IT USED TO BE.
