It's kind of a **** move to resell shoes from the perspective of somebody who truly wants them to wear. It's like, they didn't even want the shoes, they just want to hustle someone, the point of nike releasing them is for people to buy them at retail and wear them. It's hard not to resell when there is so much money out of it, but you have to look at it through the eyes of someone who has no interest in taking advantage of people who want a certain shoe.

Bash me all you want, I spoke nothing but the truth. I've been on both sides of the fence like most of us.
My point is dont be mad at resellers when you should be mad about nike releasing limited kicks. If you take the limited factor out, resellers would be gone.
 
Some of y'all take shoes way too seriously

i thought you were poking fun at the guy who got into the phonetics of calling it "the shoe game" until i realized you were that guy. i don't know what is going on anymore. 
 
Jus called... dude was real chill bout it.. but they are sold out. He said they jus created the IG acct but stock no longer availabe.
 
you must not know how Nikes business structure works. Nike does not make a shoe limited with the intention of having people wear them. They do it to generate more interest in the brand
you're talking economics to the economically blind my friend

I never and will never refer to it as the shoe game. Idk, thats just me. Its corny. If someone wants to call it that, thats them. Like my dude @ronaldcinho  said, the problem lies with not staying in your lane. 

But my opinion is that calling it a game is taking it way too seriously.

Just curious.....





What is that supposed to even mean?????

There was a time where buying shoes was a niche thing. It's been bastardized since concords.


Now everyone under 20 is a "sneakerhead" (I hate that term). Same sh*t happened in the 90s though. It was actually worse because it was more of a status symbol due to the cost of js and other nike performance being significantly higher than other brands.


But honestly it's gotten to the point where I don't even care anymore. Sold about 25-30 pairs in December of stuff I rarely/didn't wear. 1. Cuz they were taking up space. 2. Not worth dying in the city over some shoes. 3. Economically it made sense as college freshman.


Now really just starting to look back at some old gems and occasionally cop some new stuff that I like, hype or no hype.
 
all hype aside the kd vi florals are one of the ugliest shoes i've ever seen in my life. honestly probably one of the worst.

THAT'S THE BEAUTIFUL THING ABOUT SHOES! you have the right to hate what the next man loves. Decisions. Hype or no hype, nike isn't holding a gun to anyone's head telling them to like their product or their designs.



Decisions are what makes this fun, like it used to be.
 
no but u gotta see it up close and in person. there's two tongues...it is a murky floral color - not like some jungle inspired crap - it looks like an old person's sofa...and then the KD and the nike in beady black. it is a horrible horrible combo
