Scene of Cool Grey XI Release in Cali vol. apparently there's hail coming down

Not saying you have to dress like a bum, but people who have nice jobs don't even get to wear them. So, they don't spend $200 on shoes.

Ninjahook - You have about $50,000 worth of shoes? That's a great down payment on a house, but you rather look like you're living nice, than actually...living nice.

Shoe 'collecting' is low.

When you meet a girl are you gonna say "Oh, I have 2,000 posts on Niketalk & I collect shoes." She's gonna look like

& think you're a loser.

At the end of the day, they don't do anything but enhance your appearance. They don't make you do any special talents, make you smarter or anything. They're $200 pieces of rubber, glue, and leather..

If you're over 18 & still worry about what shoes come out, you need to re-evaluate life.

are you serious? dude, shut the hell up..
i dont collect shoes, but i understand to some extent that people like to stick to certain hobbies. be it shoes, toys, watches, or stupid !!$ looking cars with 28" rims

Good point sir.
After reading some of the posts I will detuct that sneaker collecting is a hobby for "some" people. But let's not forget about the so called "shoegame."
If you're still in the shoegame slap yourself.

-Woke up at 4am with my crew of about 6 (TEAM SC)

-Footaction opened up at 8am.

They only got 18 pairs & everybody in my crew got at least 2 pair.

Line was about 30 deep when we left.

All went home satisfied...


No way I'd camp for these, even if I did want them.

Dudes like you are so lame. You went to a store which you claim only got 18 pair.. Yet you and your crew were magically able to grab at least 2 pair (all in your sizes mind you) and leave everybody else to fight of the "6" magical pair left??
Why do dude like you flex so hard... Its the internet kid, we all know that isn't the real story. 9/10 your little crew doesn't exist, and you were one of the bad kids who stood in line and copped one pair. Prolly got all bent out of shape when the told you it was ONE PAIR PER CUSTOMER...

 New Age Internet Thugs FTL.

I have pictures of my Grape V's from that day - Team SC.

I got my pair & another pair for a friend who had to tend to family & my mom got another pair for another NT'er in a diff. city.

My boy spacej23 got 2 pairs, ryan/josh got theirs...so we pretty much bought half their stock & hit the waffle house/iHop for breakfast...while the people who claim to have "wanted them so bad" didn't, because they didn't get their early enough..

Early bird gets the worm, so we made moves & went home satisfied.

Your mom is part of your crew?

I respect your opinion but many people consider this possible the greatest sneaker ever made, not just the best Jordan

I personally would say 3,4,5,6,11 are all pretty close to me

I love see all the other models you named but, the XI's jus' ain't that ill to me...

No, man.

She came out there & got the pair for my friend who was out of town.

We got him the shoes & he sent us a money order for retail price.

Black/Cement IVs are the greatest sneakers ever made, IMO.

Shoes are perfection (OGs and first retros, not the crap they came out with a year or so ago).

I have a DS '99 retro pair that im dying to wear, but they look too nice to wear.

plus im sure they'll fall apart as soon as i put them on

I think these are the greatest sneakers ever made, IMHO.

I can't believe these tools.

Ditto. 24 now, but I didn't camp. I waited all day in a Jimmy Jazz because their original launch shipment never made it to them when it was supposed to. I stood in the JJ all day.

I felt that way until I owned a pair of XI's. I still think the Black/Cement III's are the best sneaker ever, but I can respect someone feeling that way about some XI's.

That being said, I'm hunting for '00 Concords now.
