Hey, I agree with that 100%. I think you kinda missed my point though.
I just think there's a distinction between urban folk adopting things from so called high-brow culture and Nike making a hamptons air force 1. It should be up to the people to adopt things into their culture, corporations like Nike shouldn't be the ones blurring the lines. Lots of brands have been adopted, lots of fine alcoholic beverages have been adopted and that's great...if you can afford to wear it or drink it, do so. I'm all for social mobility...in fact, the mere idea of "class" doesn't sit well with me, I was raised in a working class environment. What I'm trying to say is that nike making this hamptons air force 1 is like....I dunno...courvoisier making a cognac called "Hood Exclusive" or some @#$% like that. It's just very tacky to me. Something like that, in my opinion, makes both the company and the consumer look bad.
if i had the money to live in the hamptons id still be rockin my air forcesOriginally Posted by OGfiend
Hamptons air force 1s???
What has the world come to? The Hamptons are the POLAR opposite of any urban setting. And if you got the money to be there, I doubt you're wearing air force 1s. I guess it's just another lame "inspiration" on nike's part. I don't think the af1 should be getting the "every shoe has a story" treatment like the dunk did...we all know how that story ended.
