Not every sneaker needs to be a banger. Honestly, this whole "market value" discussion that was developed has really changed the way people see sneakers and for the worst. The only ones that benefited from that were Nike (by raising their prices for the same product) and resellers. Now everybody wants the prices to come up and for things to be limited.

I think the hype is still there. 4s always sell out regardless of the resale hype. I think it's that the resale market as a whole has changed, which is a great thing. Hopefully it continues on this downward trend until we can get any shoe we want for retail or even on sale.

I think you’re right on some things but wrong on others. Over saturation yes but looking at resell price as a guide is just wrong to me. The Bred reimagined were a huge success. For Nike the goal is to set a high retail price as possible but still sell out even with high production numbers. Some of the other colourways were not as bad as you made out in my opinion but what I would say is they were unnecessary, but I would argue that is the case across the whole Jordan line. Always good to see new uploads of your videos though even if I don’t always agree

See I'm a fan of the Infrareds, and the OVO Raptors were tight but I agree - here in Ireland seeing so many that are essentially reps has oversaturated the silhouette like crazy. Pandabuy Black Cats are nearly as common as Panda Dunks or triple white Forces. If the market falls off, I'll gladly cop a few pairs later in the year, I've been watching prices tumble so may even cop a few that I like (the aforementioned Infrareds have dropped about £80 in a UK 10.5 I swear). I am here for the decline in popularity of the J4 as its a silhouette I love. Same with the J3, hoping that hype train has been and gone too.
