Since the Jordan 11 "Concords" are coming out tonight, I just wanted to ask is anyone on the boards big into sneakers/shoes like I am?

I'm really into shoes. I'm interested in the Concords but I'm gonna pass since I just got LeBron 9's.

Not really. The only shoes I am "into" are Polo boots.

I have a closet full of shoes. I keep them in their original boxes. Mostly Air Force 1's and Classic Adidas. I am running out of room so I haven't bought much recently. There's probably around a hundred pairs in there or so.

I'm heading out later to get them. Stores open at 6. I got the cool grey last year and still brand new in the box. I have about 10 pairs of J's.

Huge sneakerhead. Gonna pass on the Concords though because my wallet is still recovering from the Cement 3's, KD Weathermen, and a pair of Wolf Grey V's I just bought. Plus I'm saving up for the Freegums LBJ 9's.

Not in the slightest. I only have one pair of shoes at a time, and they normally last me a year or two. After that, I get a new pair and repeat.

I'm not usually but I've bought myself three pairs in the last month. Two True Religions...   ... and one pair of Ralph Lauren.  |

I'm really into old school high tops. My favorite pair of shoes I own are these Nike Air Assaults.  I'm still hoping to one day get my hands on a pair of the old Reebok Pump high tops, or a pair of silver Jordan 5's  |

oh man, c'mon. these cannot be defended. gold shoes, with a footprint on the bottom? incredibly flashy and lame. Gold? They look green to me. And there's a story behind those. They're part of the Nike "Lockout Pack", which contains 3 pairs of signature shoes taking inspiration from the respective athlete's interests outside of basketball. Kevin Durant wanted to be a weatherman as a kid, and so the shoe is inspired by Doppler radar imagery. The footprint on the sole is actually KD's footprint in the form of a radar image. I'm not sure why you're so enraged that somebody might like more creative sneakers. Moreover, why should we have to "defend" what we like? Different people have different tastes. Personally, I find the shoes you said you like to be "lame", but I'm not upset that you like those over what I like. And for the record, I've only worn my Weathermen twice and received a ton of compliments. So apparently they aren't universally ugly. |

The Nerf's are better though, even though they only made like 300 of them. |

I am a sneaker head, but not in the conventional sense. I love sneakers but I'm not one to go out and buy or keep up with the latest releases. I'm a HUGE Air Max 90 fan. It's my favorite shoe. At the moment I'm building up a pretty nice collection of them.
