Fair question. I've collected shoes for about 10 + years now. There came a point in my life where I was in dire need of money and had to selleverything that I had off to recover from my financial difficulties.Originally Posted by JMKickz
nbirn2103 -- the paris are dope, no doubt about that.... and I hate to do this (even tho NT loves this crap) but it sure seems like all you buy are HYPED up and very expensive SBs. I mean, londons, tokyos, pigeons, paris, and who the hell knows what else. I guess what Im asking is if you ever even wear them or just buy whats "cool"

I have two collections - one that I keep DS and the other that I wear. The more rarer shoes, I do keep DS (like the city series dunks) for the sake of value. However I do have many rare shoes I do rock (mainly jordan's - 99 jordan bred iv's, true blue iii's, cements iii's, etc. . . )
to each his own but i do not see the point of getting shoes if you are not gonna wear them..ive rocked every thing i ever bought 1st series laser af1 esposheinkens etc and really could care less of the worth i just like shoes..
i could give a crap about what people buy with their own money but that statement just seemed kindaOriginally Posted by nbirn2103
But I do like to buy shoes that I like that I know will hold their value.

I have owned hundreds & hundreds of kicks, many which I never wore - not because of value but because I just never got around to them
exactly i think i have close to a thousand pairs and only reason any thing is ds is cause i have not got to them yet..or i forgot i even had them some timeslol
Yeah....the art (if that is an art) of collecting shoes DS is pretty much gone with the over saturation of kicks that are out. It was a lot cooler when things weren't retroed. I wouldn't even consider my small stash a collection. It's just a bunch of shoes. Every time I get all excited and cop some shoes or miss out on some, I never even trip cause there is always another pair that comes out that makes me feel the same way. But yes....to each their own. I remember when it was cool just to know alot about kicks....but now I even think that is a little over top. I got schooled by some guy on Vans yesterday cause I thought the Dollins were Alvas. He actually belittled me when I was in my corporate monkey suite.......but at least I can heelflip in them.Originally Posted by Mr Fongstarr
