| Are there any Sneakerheads here on the forum? What kind of collection do you have? Do you only collect one brand? Stoked for any new releases coming soon? Pick up anything new? Let's talk about it, yeah? Anything and everything related to sneakers and sneaker culture. |

| yeah jordans stay in stock on size? (biggest shoe retailer in england) for ages, like a i could have got the fighter jet foamposites 3 weeks after the release whereas they would have sold out in minutes in america. and yeah ill let you know, theres a huge air max pack coming out soon, or it might have dropped already. |

| really? I've heard of size, but I've never seen a store in the uk, probably because I live in the middle of nothing. Size is legit though, my friend did an order for some nike air wardors, a huf snapback and an undftd sweat a while back from there and he received them, the wardors really don't suit him though, they look fucking retarded, with retarded neon laces, he also tried to wear jordans once and it looked really silly. I don't really understand the whole sneaker scene thing though, like I don't understand how people know where to buy them from, if I had more money, I'd probably get into it, but I have nada.

There are websites and forums dedicated to sneaker releases and mostly that's how everyone knows where and when things get released. You should check out Sneakernews.com I also felt like Jordans and different kicks didn't suit me either, but you just have to be confident when you wear them and try not to fit in with what everyone else is wearing. Develop your own style and they shouldn't look bad. As for the whole sneaker scene and why people are into it I can tell you that some people get into it just because they think it will make them cool and popular, which is a terrible reason. The reason I got into sneakers was because of a friend I had who collected, he would always show them to me and talk to me about them. Then I watched a documentary about sneakers on Netflix, you should really check it out. It's called "Just For Kicks" and it chronicles the whole sneaker culture from how it began and how it's evolved. That documentary actually made me go out and buy my first pair of kicks because it made me realize that most of these shoes have a story behind them and they aren't just a pair of shoes, some are fabulous works of art that have a story to tell, and I think that's really awesome. Sometimes I see a LOT of similiarities between the fingerboard community and the sneaker community. Such as having our own special releases from companies, having our own little events, a hatred for "hypebeasts" in the sneaker culture and anything "china" in the fingerboard culture. I can come up with tons more, but I don't want to bore, haha. |

| yea the craziest yeezy story i read was about this guy who took a pic of his online reciept that he got from nike and some guy eent and canceled his order. i dont really cop much anymore because money is tight and i dont see any thing i would wait hours in line for.i did wait for the when pigs fly though but soldout before i got a size. everything from where i am from is over hyped by people who arent sneaker heads so i relly have no chance to cop anything. |
