It finally happened.

You got lucky either online or on a raffle, and you copped a pair of valuable limited kicks. You’re already daydreaming about how all your friends are going to be jealous when you roll up to the function in your new pair, and you can’t help but imagine stunting on all the GR-wearing suckers at the mall too.

But then you start thinking about something else.

You’ve seen the same shoes on eBay. People are paying $700, $800, even over $1,000. That’s a lot of money for a pair of shoes. You start thinking about what you could do with that money, but you’re still not sure if you’re ready to pull the trigger and sell. read more

Online releases. They’re a major part of today’s sneaker game. Every shoe you want isn’t going to be available locally, so you’re forced to go to the internet (sometimes early in the morning on a weekend..which is awful) to get the shoes you want.

It’s Friday, and a weekend full of heat is almost upon us. You’ll want to get your web browsers (and your wallets) ready, as there’s enough fire to burn down a residential neighborhood dropping these next few days.

It’s seemingly the only shoe that’s been discussed these last few weeks. It’s being discussed in Facebook sneaker groups, barbershops, and boutiques all over the world. It’s the Yeezy 350 Boost, the most anticipated shoe of the last few months by a long shot.

Opinions vary from extremely positive to exceptionally negative. The shoe’s supporters will say that it’s a great representation of what Kanye is trying to achieve with his new Adidas line (while also incorporating Adidas’s newest and best technology), while its detractors will say that it looks like a Roshe Run knockoff, and is just flat-out ugly. read more
