Did the wittle resellers go to far exploiting basic dunks and now everybody okay w wearing anything? Good job guys thanks for making puma and reebok wearable simply bc we couldn’t get what we wanted. Now ppl can wear whatever they want if it matches the fit and it’s all thanks to the resellers!

Sneakers will always have place for shoe culture, but resale value its definitely declining.

Honestly I think Nike’s biggest problem is the quality and their next biggest problem is simply not giving people what they want. To me personally while I own a majority of Nike and Jordan products. New Balance strikes the best balance of quality for price and giving people things they want for the most part.

This gone sound mad, but honestly for me the moment Ye exited the sneaker game, it was dead for me. I been a sneaker head since I was a kid in the 90s, the game was boring with the same shit until we got Yeezys the pandemic brought in some new fans but, we now back to the pre Yeezy days. Everything else clapped out

Reselling is dying. Which is amazing. Now it’s back to how it use to be mid-late 90s .. OG jordans .. when you could go to mall at 1 pm and get some Jordans

Wow those Jordan 4s are sittinggggggg

Resale is dead but the sneaker hype is still there they still sell out if that makes sense. It’s simply if people miss out they aren’t really paying resale anymore they’ll just get something else

Companies selling fakes has changed the game.. now their getting sued. We will see what is next

Absolutely! The hype for shoes and even fire shoe releases in general just isn’t there anymore!

Reselling is dead i bought like 3 pairs of 1ns for $65 last week😂😂

See the thing about shoes is that you kinda need an outfit so buying shoes and not having a good outfit with it makes u spend more

All about comfort i stopped wearing the check

adidas is king of the Collab game. ZX line and EQT are extremely underrated in the US but sell out in Europe.

I’m in San Diego and lots of sneakers reseall stores are closing like crazy

I was late to the Yeezy train and started getting into them due to their comfort and channels like yours. Been back riding the Jordan train but they just are not nearly as comfortable. Deff going to check out some NBs see what thry got to offer. Mad respect as always!!

Is it that sneakers has died our they’re so many different sneaker companies sharing the market at the moment

In a way, yeah. Sneakers are slowing down and its never been more evident now. Wear what you want and dont care abour the hype, cuz there isnt much hype left anyways

I love NB too but unfortunately all the resellers moved over too and made everything impossible to get once again

The fits from that 2016 era are still my favorite and I rock one a couple times a week at least. I finally got a pair of dsrt boots under retail so im good. Its the only thing i wanted from this summers drops

I think sneakers in the same way i think of NFT, supreme and all the other trends in the last years. Yes of course there are a bunch of OG and passionate people but the majority, the ones that casued the bubble to increase and get bigger, are all the people that couldn't care less about the item itself casue they just view it as a way to make HUGE profit. Of course there's nothing wrong with it, I am the first that sold some shoes to make some money but there some differences between one that gets a W once a year and one that cops mutiple shoes each drop thanks to bots. IMO with the death of Virgil Abloh, the adidas/yeezy situation and the 12359^2 shoes from Travis Scott we lost what kept the hype and most important the curiosity around the shoes, nowadays we still have collaboration, retro and new colorways but everything looks like a reskin, a blatant copy of what already exist. Yes maybe with brands like NB, Asics, Puma etc it's a different story but when it comes to Adidas and Nike i can't name a new model that hit the market and leaved its mark (maybe the AE1 but it's a ball shoes and not really a lifestyle one). Like in 2018 we got shoes from THE TEN collection, waverunners, travis jordan 4... now what we got ? Adidas samba ? Jordan retro ? The sixth or seventh (i don't even know anymore) jordan 1 low by travis ? Anyway keep going JA, you're awesome

Been loving ASICS lately too man

It’s so weird, in Europe, it was Adidas all your life and if you had some Jordans, especially pre digital age; you were soooo different & extra cool

Back in the 80s and early 90s, I mainly wore mid level Nike. Had a pair of Air Trainer SC (Bo Jackson's) and a pair or 2 of Reebok Pumps. While in the Army, I bought my first pair of Jordan Black Metallic V Retros in 2000. Then around 2008, I started getting into the shoe game. By 2014, I was done! Jordan retros became crazy expensive but the quality started to become garbage. I will say that resellers killed it the most. It's one thing that Nike started raising their prices and making changes to Retros but the scallectors got greedy. C'mon ...dunks and Jordan 1s selling for $10k+....GTFOH. People using bots to buy out full runs to make them more "rare". Yeah, not cool Now, I sport Huaraches and non Retro Jordans. They look good and comfy.

Yeah i was born early 90s and i wore Nikes up until I wanna say 8th grade is when i bought my first Adidas. They were a basketball shoe called Adidas_1 which is IMPOSSIBLE to find the basketball version. Idk if you heard of them, but they were a pair of basketball shoes that had a computer chip in them that adjusted to your foots desired comfort. If mine still worked I could only imagine how much they would cost.

I have noticed something about all your videos recently; every time I watch them, the first ad is an Adidas ad.

nike don't got the answer LOL

lately, I just got tired of spending money on these shoes are coming out with so many of them and none of them I can never hit always have to buy resell for some ridiculous price. Back Doring and bots are disgusting to me.

Today I copped some New balances, FOG essential shorts and shirt and Nike shorts 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

My exact journey with sneakers as you explained JA

I think it's just a weird time once Ye was done with adidas . It got boring, and then J brand 1s after 1s and a lot another random releases sprinkled with some good drops then Travis scott over doing the 1 lows to the point that ppl went to other brands buy what you like and bump whatever people say.

Some Yeezys 50% off on adidas uk right now, including cmpcts, 450s, 380s

What up bro, I started collecting sneakers for a little over a year and I say I have a pretty good collection, from Jordan's/Sb lows, New Balance, to ASICS my run so far has been fun and exciting with the help from individuals like yourself and other KZfaq sneaker channels, Thanks to everyone for your reviews, it has been helping me alot. Have a Cool rest of your weekend. I'm out, Peace.😎

I've been rocking with adidas pretty much since D rose hit the scene back in 08 so even tho the adidas/Ye partnership is over, that won't change much for me. Plus, you can't deny how adidas been killing it over the years with their basketball line. Specially with the Ae1's and Hardens currently

The industry is dead without Yeezy, Ye bring it back.

New Balance 9060 Is Such A GREAT SHOE COMFORT IS CRAZY AND DESIGN IS VERY UNIQUE

Those Cortez sold faster than those 1s 😂

Always been a sneakerhead,I started off posting kicks for free for people who were trying to sell in 2013 and those same folks wanted kicks I could get, so they offered me over retail 🤷🏾‍♂️

Bro that color scheme always reads as despicable me minions to me. 😂

Hope you have a great father's day. Would love to see some 9060 collabs.

Retro SBs

People are probably looking at their stack of shoes that reach the ceiling and wondering if they *really* need another pair.

It’s upppp G 🎉🎉🎉

Jordan brand & Nike are two different companies so it’s kinda like Jordan brand doing most the classic nostalgia stuff & Nike itself should be able to focus on innovation time will tell.

History repeats itself everybody gets tired of j’s and rock other brands . Thats what’s happening now …it ain’t dead let the right og drop and it’s going down. In the 80’s and 90’s we did rock adidas shell toe eqt torsions etc.. resale is dead

Always stupid af to buy shoes just to not wear them, the n hopes value would run up just for you to sell a pair you really liked. Makes no sense. Shoes are not an investment and selling shoes is not a career, go get a llc and start your own business if you think you a baller

Mistakenly I bought the wrong shoe size for Yeezy beluga RF 46 2/3. Living in Athens. Anyone interested before I return them?

I remember people thinking that they were gonna get rich off selling sneakers lol

SHOUTOUT TO JA FOR GIVING PROPS TO THE DMV FOR THEIR IMPORTANT CONTRIBUTION TO THE POPULARITY OF THE NEW BALANCE BRAND

Man all my shit sold RIGHT ON TIME! On stockx anyway. Shit that i looked at as a loss last year for $5-$30 profit is looking like a huge win today...everything selling for $100+ UNDER retail..that is sad!! Fuck the sneaker game! No more $ in it

Nike and Jordan brand does get stale after a while. I think the Nike SB team does a really good job of staying creative with their collabs tho

Everybody fucked up tryna survive and looking for deals now, most of us are no longer paying overpriced retail prices let alone resell for Retro Jays with glue stains and bs like that. I was excited about Adidas especially with the Ye partnership due to the dope ass innovation/designs and etc. but the game is stale now since Ye left adidas, I copped the Yezzy Pods and some sweats and shirts off the site and im chilling now enjoying my old collection of Lebron 5,6, 7s & comfortable NB fresh foam kicks. If a sale pop up then I cop but besides that I'm gucci.

As a kid I was a big Reebok guy. Had a few Js but mostly Reebok. Then went to Adidas’s cause Jordans got boring and everyone had them. Now I have more Jordans then anything but still buy the Reeboks and Adidas here and there.

9060 < 1906R

since theres nomore yeezy we are gonna go back to the days where retros sit and dont sell out, just wear what you like, if you buying to resell for a $20-$50 profit margin just rethink your choices lol

I made the change to loafers in the summer,boots in the winter

My issue is these terrible ass colorways. Kd's, Brons, Paul George's, etc had some nice models but colorways were trash af. No lie is even go JB and get some Tatum's but the cw nowadays are terrible. These designers put no effort in them. Best i seen recently is AE and even them all-stars had a trash cw in my opinion. I feel all-stars should always have the best cw.

💯

I know Nike is the hype but they have become the grand dads in the room. Throw out a different colorways of the same shoe, its becomes costly, I wish they would remake the classics so they all can enjoyed. I'd love a shot and a pair of Off-White from 2017-19, they have been sold and resold to a point some never worn look like someone pissed on them. COVID brought out the resale beast now he's back in the cage.

Obviously we got sick and tired of Nike copy pasting shoes. Adidas is more exciting when they are the hype. Ye touched it and it became gold and now he devalued adidas and now we are tired seeing the same nike shoes over and over

🎉🎉🎉

Inflation only gettin worse and the shoes ain’t gettin no cheaper 🤷🏾‍♂️ yeah been dead fr

Is it dead…? Naw it will never die… but it is like in a coma or on life support. I’m glad the ASICS and new balance surge is happening. The variety is lacking, collabs aren’t as hype as much anymore. I love Nike but I also love innovation which they owned but has since abandoned.

Sneakers arent dying.....getting people to buy from the Outlets are alive and well

Ye forever !!

Wait!! No. I just received my pods (after 4 months) it can’t be dead now, I just got them . C’mon😅😅😂

Gonna miss the yeezy content here. So tired of Jordan's releasing the same stuff. Lol. I hope Pharrell, Jerry, and AE can keep adidas relevant 🙏🏾

New balance being hype is hilarious. They only make one kind of shoe, (a hiking running dad shoe)and it just proves that everyone is bored. How Yeezy just popped out showed you…

Sorry I can't do new balance and I'll always be a nike/ jordan fan and really I've started to like nike sb but just so hard to get and wish they would drop more quantities instead of these 10,000 pairs but something has to happen to these resellers cause they are the ones killing the game but I just but what I can and move to the next

Nike can break the sneaker game by doing business with Ye again but it will never happen sadly

Resale Will Never Die WE ARE JUST IN A FLOODED MARKET PEOPLE FORGOT ALL THE KICKS THAT WERE SITTING CARGO BACKLOGGED WHEN EVERYTHING CAME IN THERE R JUST TO MANY KICKS IF THEY STARTED TO LIMIT EVERYTHING HYPE AND PRICES WOULD RISE SIMPLE

Nike and their stupid colour blocking on Jordan 1s. Ye still pumped up Nike via air Yeezys. Nothing even comes close now for Nikes 'innovation'. Trash Nike 😂

It’s UPPP

Hey bro what’s your ethnicity?

New balance are like grandpa shoes

Super ☠️ dead

Nike designs are far superior to adidas

YEEZY YEEZY YEEZY JUST JUMPED OVER JUMPMAN. DIDNT DROP THE ALBUM BUT THE SHOES WENT PLATINUM! WOOO!
