I never really liked them and I certainly dont wanna pay the price the way I see it is if I have 120 bucks in my pocket I can think of 1,000,000 better things to buy or spend on but thats just my two cents

I used to only wear Jordans, then I went over to dunks. I've since stopped buying on a regular basis because I don't really wear them to work and I needed to use the money on more important things I have about 30+ pairs of J's and 15+ pairs of dunks. Not too too into his clothes though.

I never had a pair because everybody had them. I like to be different plus like alex said i can buy better things with 120+ dollars then those.

I like some of the Jordans and have owned in the past. I just don"t believe in shelling out $160.00 + on a pair of shoes. My limit on shoes is around $100.00. It's not that I don't have the money I just don't believe shoes shouls cost that damn much!

I have one pair of jordans at the moment and it's the one's that came in the briefcase. Why I had to have them I don't know. LOL

I used to be a Jordans fanatic. I still have my khaki retirement Jordans. I hoop in Dunks and work out and run in Shox. With all the bootleg shoes out there I think Jordans have gotten plaid out.

Can never go wrong with the OG Reeboks (canvas)

I had to have them throughout High school, But now the fake ones come in some nice colors, You dont get the same value of wearing them. Because most will think you have the fake ones one so paying 100+ & not receiving any credit for being able 2 afford them is gone!!! Lol

I only bought Jordan's because errrrbody had them in H.S and I couldn't afford to have them. I had to get Barkleys, darwins or Hurachies. They were like half the price.
So now that I have been working and had some money....I bought every Jordan that I ever wanted. Not all Jordans but like 20 pairs or so. Over the years of finding REAL ones I think I've spent over a $1500 maybe more for my shoes. And I only used a couple of them. I think I did it to fill the void of not having them. I don't enjoy wearing them because of the fact that I want to keep them NEW. I don't know why I think that way.

I'm over it now and still have the Jordan's. I want to sell but my wife wants me to save them for my son.
I think that Jordans are cool for an expensive collectable hobby something like collecting art or something like that.
Instead of buying J's I'm buying LV wallets and going to games and buying good lower levels seats and going to nice dinners and such. Oh yeah and the never ending Mustang hobby that I just can't kick.

Very true....all the fake ones out there kind of ruin it for all the people with real ones! This is also one of the reasons why I stopped wearing them. I primarily wear Vans (classics) or other plain casual shoes nowadays...good for work attire, pretty comfortable, and CHEAP

I'm actually selling part of my collection right now.
http://www.solecollector.com/forums/size-13-ds-aj-xi-retros-concords-blk-red-aj-v-aj13-t926145.html

I used to buy Jordans all the time. I'm actually only wearing the all black and red XIV and black and white XIV. I just popped those out the box brand new a few months ago. I'm selling my others cause I bought a bike and had no interest in them anymore. I actually had 3 other AJ 11's new 2 space jams and one white and black concords stolen from my closet when I was away from college. I think my fucking little cousins took them. Anyhow, I may buy some in the future but it will be for wear and not to collect.

J's r the shit and will always be the shit. Every once in a while a shoe will come in style but Jordans are always clean. Shit growing up couldnt afford them so now when i see a clean pair just gotta cash out. Its good to be able too now but it was funny seeing all the kids in the welfare line with the newest pair of j's on.

Or something better than kicks.

But everyone has their hobbies. That's like telling someone into gardening that they spent to much on a certain type of tree or flower. To each their own.

Posted by EPIK (Member # 7481) on :
 
Oh man, don't get me started on shoes... I have been collecting kicks for years now & i have a pretty sizeable amount of Jordans among other things... I only like the retro's though. IMO, the Jordans started going downhill after the 14's came out.... 1-6 & 9-13 are the BEST, & 17 & 18's are ok. I don't really care for anything other than those numbers & the last ones were GARBAGE!!!

I really don't pick up shoes like a used to since the cars come before kicks now, plus the bootleg things ruined it IMO... I will NEVER EVER where a pair of fake kicks!!!


Here are some of the highlights in my Jordan collection.... Whats an Epik post without pic whoring

Yes a few are dingy because I actually do wear them....
