Rock. Don’t destroy em but a non worn kick is pointless in my opinion unless it’s a vintage pair that’s unwearable or some keepsake/autographed pair

Stock or place in glass box like a piece of art. You can’t actually wear them. You’ll ruin them the first night you take them out. Worship them, comrade.

Rock them. I come to the point where I have sneakers from the late 90s and even early 2000s that are starting to crumble. And most of them are still on ice.

Wear them, at the end of the day it’s just a sneaker. A beautiful one though 😉

How is this not a keepsake?

If you’re a hypebeast you like them because they are popular and exclusive. I’ve been a fan of Virgil Abloh since he was a part of Kanye’s team. He really elevated the streetwear game and although he was not the first, he was one of the first to mix in luxury. Personally I like the deconstructed aesthetic of the shoe and have been a Nike/Jordan guy since I was 3.

As for rock/stock... tough call still.

rock.

Why do people like this line so much? (Honest question)

Flip, get something you’ll rock

If you love them, spray em and rock em

I’d rather have $3K to spend on 15-20 great pairs of shoes, than one pair of great shoes. I’d flip

In What world are you getting 3k? If you’re lucky these will net 250 dollars profit. Spray some crep protect on and wear em w a big smile on your face

They’re on GOAT for over $2K

Nevermind, I made a generalization based on the price of some other shoes from the 10 collection

$665 on goat isn’t bad if I reallyyyy wanted to sell. (but I don’t)

Again these are 500 dollars in resell. The historical data supports that. If you paid 220 w tax, the max you will clear after fees is about 250. Just wear your shoes and don’t pretend they are an investment. Take it from someone one who has purchased thousands of pairs and sold pairs for thousands. It’s better to just enjoy

Once I have used the money that’s been invested there’s no way of seeing it again and still bringing the return quick enough.

The numbers still show it’s possible, I still believe in the concept and I’m still growing, I think I just have some imposter syndrome.

Any advice?

Kina freaking out. I'm applying for a new bar. They asked about credit card balances. I took that as they must mean do you carry over anything because my exact balance changes every day and my credit score once a month so I said 0. They just pulled my credit report and well it's not 0 as it hasn't updated yet. Did I do anything wrong?
