>Americans buy new "sneakers" to only use them a few times then wait a year and trade or sell them for 2x their price to other people in special "sneaker" conventions; not for profit because there they will also try to acquire a stranger's used "sneakers" so they can use them once and wait a year for the next sneaker convention so they can do it all over again.Why do these kind of shoes have such a special ritual significance?Can a native from these lands explain?
>Americansthats clearly a Chinese
>>533915232They are collectors items that's it
>>533915232>sneakers>people don't sneak in them
>>533915232>(((Americans)))You mean niggers and Nigger culture brought to you by Jews .>>Be Me >>have size 13 to size 14 feet>>Manufactures make very few shoes in those sizes every run of shoes they make.>>Nigger sneaker collectors buy those sizes because they are even "rarer" even thought they are 5'5'' Nigglets with size 7 shoes.>>Can't find my shoe size>>look on Kjjijij --- they are all double the price trying to get rich ..>>Fucking Niggers and their Jew enablers
>>533915232I was given a pair of limited edition collector's sneakers and they've lasted surprisingly long despite wearing them a few times a week in the summer for like 5 years. It's a shame these idiots pay hundreds if not thousands for good shoes only to let them collect dust.
>>533915232didn`t lord meth chimp wear jordans as he od`d?their god is a meth monkey and the jordan shoe is the symbol of their faith.
>>533915232Zesty niggers obsessed with shoes. It's very womanish.
>>533915232What the fuck is that creature?
>>533915232link the vid
its a ponzi scheme for zoomers that dont know the value of random crap thats supposed to degrade when used.
>>533915841It wouldn't be sneaking if you could see them
>>533915841I do. And it’s working, your comment proves it.
>>533915625shes not chinese just extremely happy about sneakers>>533915966the americans in question mostly live in coastal cities from what i've researchedand these cities's streets are entirely coated in dog and human piss that permeate into everything that touches them>>533916098https://www.youtube.com/shorts/qSL5Yg-L754
>>533915868Why are you wearing sneakers as a grown-ass man?
>>533915232wtf is it with nigger culture and sneakers?
>>533915868You may as well look at custom shoes molded for your feet if the price is already obnoxious.
>>533915625America is a melting pot and you should be proud.
>>533915232Saw a bunch of nigs hoarding around the entrance of a shoe store yesterday. Stunk of weed and loud bass. They got nothing better to do.
>>533915232its a shoe fetish thing, they like the smell of used shoes
>>533915868>>>have size 13 to size 14 feetYoure brown
>>533916298Only manchildren have this idea "adults" should wear suits and ties 24/7 regardless of the weather or situation. You probably dont ever leave your house so the thought of a running shoe is foreign to you
I stopped wearing sneakera daily when I realised theyre super synthetic and vost just as much as natural leather shoes. My feet never stink when wearing shoes with natural leather inner lining. Even adding natural leather insoles in sneakers decrease feet sweat.
>>533915232>be american>jew by nature (no foreskins btw)>tries to turn every facet of life into a money maker
>>533915625No its a worm nro
>>533916886Leather shoes are nice but you cant run in them you cant go to the gym in them you don't want to wear them to outdoor social events.
>>533915232It's black culture. Higher iq races get into it and complicate the original premise which is supposed to be just having a nice pair of shoes like your favorite basket ball player or whatever. The new age of wiggers have minmaxed it to such a degree that they acquire shoes which have such a high monetary value that wearing them would be insane. It was just a race to be the blackest wigger but now it's transcended that to who can be wiggerest wigger.
>>533916783All I wear are>Work boots>Muck boots>Snow boots>Hiking boots>SandalsI don't go for runs because I'm not homosexual
>>533917355You dont go on runs or walks because your fat and brown and dont own a dog
>>533915232People buy pokemon cards just to sleeve and not play the game but to sell for profit. People buy houses just to sleep and eat in then and then sell for profit. People buy gold and silver just to do nothing with them and sell for profit. Simply are collectibles that humans assign value to. I find clothing being treated this way retarded personally but I am sure that a nigger would think my PSA 10 Reverse Holo Charizard is retarded. Until I see the value of the shoe and think neat or the nigger sees the value of my Charizard and mugs me.
>>533915841People did use them to sneak around when they were new. Compared to leather soles, the rubber sole is very quiet.
>>533915232>>>/fa/catalog
>>533917412My dog hikes with me all the time, I find it much more engaging than running around town like a retard
>>533915232I li,e nostalgia shoes, but I never bought any because Nike is trash now.
>>533916710Maybe you’re a midget
>>533915232thats a jew and a man
I pick whatever fucking shoes are available for cheap at the french Walmart equivalent and wear them down until there's holes through the insole. Did the same for work bots in the field, I walked enough to dig holes in many rain boots, I usually change them when it rains and I notice they're not waterproof anymore.I can't fathom the idea there's men collecting flashy neon colored shoes like soitards collecting funko pops. I'd gladly have them die.
>>533915868So that’s why I can never find my husband’s fucking shoe size? There’s like nothing in between 10-16 available. I was finding size 16 for NBA players before I could find my husband’s size 13. We aren’t niggers so we don’t buy every ugly stupid looking trendy shoe but every two years or so when I need to replace his sneakers it’s a nightmare. Next time I go I’m gonna ask the sales man which brand niggers stay away from so I don’t continue to have this problem.
>>533915868Lol I recommend just dropping maybe 150-250$ on pair of work boots Carolina is a pretty solid brand for this. If you have fuck you money 700$ and hand made (Nicks or JK boots) if and clean once or twice a week with a horsehair brush and microfiber towel if you want them to last forever. If your not doing any serious blue collar shit just get a soft toe, go down a size from your usual sneaker size, (also make sure you measure your foot width most people are a D in width) get one with thick rubber outsole (vibram brand rubber outsoles are probably the best choice) and condition them with leather oil and preservative maybe 3 times during the break in period and after that like once a year.
The sneaker head and hip hop head community overlaps 100%Macklemore has been forsaken.
>>533915232It's a hobby for normal people who take interest in things and haven't fried their dopamine receptors from endless internet use
>>533918132You’re not gonna be able to continue that as you age. Your body is gonna break down especially if you walk around in bad shoes all the time and you will eventually have to buy shoes will real support in a timely manner. That time is only gonna arrive sooner if you keep doing that to your feet.
>>533917853I kind of want the Nike Air Pumps from like 1990 or so. I could never wear them unironically, but I still want them for old time's sake.I mostly just want to go back to 1990, actually.
>>533918517joke on you my body is already broken from substance abuse, doomer lifestyle, loss of hope, recent and apparently for ever lasting unemployment, isolation, despair, kidneys giving up, alcohol abuse and so on and so on and so onI already have two giant holes the size of a small tomato on my two current shoes, the insole got as thin as cigarette paper and I don't give a SHIT. I'm already dead. Why should I care about shoes.
>>533915232> >Americans buy new "sneakers" to only use them a few times then wait a year and trade or sell them for 2x their price to other people in special "sneaker" conventionsSounds fake as fuck. First why would anyone buy used shoes and 2nd who would pay 2x the price for used shoes even if "only worn twice"?
>>533915232Niggers and nigger lovers are obsessed with niggerball shoes endorsed by niggers who play niggerball. American society is centered around niggers.
>>533915232its another stupid saturn logo brand
>>533918911>why would anyone buy used shoes and 2nd who would pay 2x the price for used shoes even if "only worn twice"?Because they adopted the commercially manufactured "sneakerhead" and "hypebeast" identity which revolves around buying overpriced sweatshop goods. Even if they're being sold second hand and Nike doesn't get any of the profit, massively overpricing their old shoes boosts the value of Nike's brand, which is what modern capitalism relies on. Brands evoking certain feelings and inciting certain behaviours is how the world works in 2026. And if these people didn't have their consumer identity, they'd have nothing at all.
>>533918594>Nike Air PumpsThose were reebok and they wore a little tight after 3 pumps.
>>533915232Why are you focusing only on sneakers, or America even?Collectors items have always existed and rich fucks are everywhere in every country willing to pay for them. Either they want the item or they want to sell it later for a higher value Seriously bro, are you dumb? Lol
