People in here said they wanted a perfect shoe like they got back in 1988. Then dudes posted pics to prove that the pair from 1988 wasn’t perfect so now they’re switching it to.: i want michaels pair lol. Stop man.I get what you’re saying
But Spike Lee probably wears a 7Y or mens 7.5 and I’m not buying the reimagined Spike Lee pair he wore shooting a commercial
I’m buying what MJ is wearing and MJ has on a men’s sz 13 or 13.5 and hisprint height is identical on his pairs
Nothing is higher from one shoe to the other in this picture
To prove your point when you have to show both shoes? It’s barely showing the right shoe.
You also actually sound pretty ridiculous now with the spike lee thing also. If Spike Lee had uneven elephant print back in the 80s that just goes to show that even the original release wasn’t perfect. The expectations are wild also; you think just because you have the same size as Michael Jordan, You’re going to get the same pair of shoes?
Sheesh! Extra spicy in here
. It's like when the MCU kicked off and all of a sudden everyone was a marvel comics expert and I'm having conversations with people who a year before couldn't tell Deadpool from Deadshot. Travis Scott and Kanye West and Social Media. That's who we responsible for this. Kanye brought fashion and sneakers to the masses like no one else before him and the internet helped. Sneakers were apart of Ye the way drugs and and hustling were apart of Jay Z. Then Travis Scott did the same. Kids related sneakers to Travis the same way we related sneakers to MJ. I always looked to see what shoes rappers had on but I never cared more about the sneakers they had on than the bars they spit. Butnkids these days care more about the kicks than the bars. We talked about what Jay Z SAID. They talk about what Travis WORE. And of course you have the explosion of social media bringing it to the masses and flex culture being a thing. Now sneakers are a social currency and a literal currency like never before. So people who don't really engage deeply with the culture are in the culture and it's more of them than us. Now people who thought I was weird for having more than 20 pairs of shoes are taking to me about releases like they been down since way back. Like I said, you want the best analogy for where sneakers are today? Look at the explosion of the MCU. You have people that will not miss a Marvel movie or TV show but still have never held a comic book in their hand. Comic culture was always a thing but it has undoubtedly blown up. Sneaker culture also has always been a thing, but it has also undoubtedly blown up.
