I hate wearing any type of sneakers to a shoe store because I don't want to look like I'm trying to stunt.

 When I wear nice sneakers to a release I don't look at it as "stuntin". I just feel like I could be wearing some Yeezy's to go out all night and nobody, if not, one person will notice. We're in this "game" (hate that term) because we like sneakers, their history, and the stories we have trying to obtain them. In my eyes, wearing nice sneakers to a release opens the door to conversation with somebody waiting in line with you. I wore my snakeskin XIs to the Concord release, chopped it up with a bunch of people, and overall had a good time. I'm starting to ramble, but I'm just saying that wearing nice sneakers to a release doesn't necessarily mean you're trying to "stunt". I wear nice sneakers to a release because that's when you know everyone will notice and will want to converse. I like waiting in line at a store as opposed to copping online, although I've got it pretty much down now (2 Concords and 1 pair of Xmas Lebrons all online), because it's fun choppin it up with my fellow sneakerheads.
I feel you on that. I lined up for the Black Cements on Black Friday and it was fun just vibing with the people in line. I'll be doing that more often.

I am in the minority here but recently I hate camping at all because all I hear is kids talk about how much money they are going to make reselling whatever they picking. Lebron China's was in line for like 30 minutes and almost had to slap a kid talking about the china's will be double what the south beaches are worth. It takes the fun away from sneakers.
  
 
like i said in my previous posts....i refuse to pay retail for all other colorways....

That's the good thing about individuality.
Cause I'm well into my 30s & I was blown away by Cannons, Chinas & Miami Nights when pics first surfaced of each. Just about nobody liked the 9s initially but the colorways ABSOLUTELY GO HARD!!!
The only way I won't cop more aftert BIG BANGS & Dunkmans is if I stay out this thread. But that ain't happening.

not sure it has anything to do with age. ya'll probably have no style. 
laugh.gif
or just no life left in ya figuring because your 30 you can't like vibrant colors? absurd! im 29 and have the cannons, am working on getting the chinas and will be getting big bangs. i understand the "high and mighty" mentality of being 30 but 30's the new 20 and sometimes you gotta get off your high horse and have a little fun. let loose with the wacky colorways, you wont regret it. wear em once in a blue when you're feeling "young" lol. you can wear your boring all black kicks the rest of the year.

Only ones I got so far are the Christmas ones...still desperately want them Chinas though.  NDC/Eastbay did me wrong on release night lol...the Kentucky and MN colorways are nice also
 
House of Hoops in Miami had Christmas Lebrons, as well as all the other colors, as of two days ago at 7 p.m. I'd be willing to help some NT'ers out.
 
Galaxy print laces (think the WTT 9 laces) on the Big Bangs would put them over the top.
