    Foamposites resurgence has been gaining popularity and Air Jordan has been throwing out the same colorways for so many years.

    This is a great thing. Them folks who was just getting shoes to resell them was just in the ? way. If you not going to wear them get out the way. Reselling shoes at crazy marked up prices ain't a real ? hustle.

    Dummies buying shoes for $200 then reselling them for $400 the same day then wondering why the person who agreed to the $400 price slapped a knot on your head took them and ain't pay you ? .

    OR...

    Buy them for 200, sit and wait...until they are long out of the retro cycle and ...now your 200 is 4, 5, 600

    And ? forbid Nike decides to stop retroeing. Unworn pairs would be a goldmine

    Im not a 'hypebeast' and the culture is corny to me, but to call people stupid for reselling- -aka investing- --is asinine. Its a GUARANTEED return on investment and potential goldmine, and it A-preciates in value

    This is how it ? should be .....this is how it was when I was A kid ....you used to actually go into the store and try on a pair walk around the store and ? ...hold a pair up next to a sweatsuit to see if it matched ....and then cop when you felt the desire to ....over the past 10 years these ? hypebeast have destroyed the the whole allure...everybody gets Js now so it's not even "stunting" to have a pair .....it's become a stock piece of gear

    True that. Shieeet I remember going into Copelands on a Saturday afternoon and seeing those obsidian 12s in all sizes just sittin there like it was Payless.

    I'm lucky that I hate most Jordans. Besides 4s and 5s, for the most part I can't ? with them. And when I do cop a pair, it's to wear. ? trying to resell and all that ? . And I definitely ain't waiting in line. They deaded that ? here in Sac anyway. You gotta enter a raffle. I just order them ? online and be done with it.
