Insignificant posting from an insignificant poster
Easy targets but I think it's more than that. I do believe the young white kids are the main ones that made it to where a bot is needed just to have a chance at getting sneakers online.


Everytime i see social media posts with dudes harnessing an entire inventory of kicks... it's 99 percent privileged/well connected white kids.

Look at Ann Herbert and her piece of shiiit son and their million dollar resell operation.



And this little shiiit:




On the contrary...

The "asian" folks most people think are ruining sneaker culture, if they do resell, it's not at the same capacity as cacs (trust you me, the big time resellers are almost always white kids).



Hypebeasts or not, most oriental kids actually wear their shoes and embrace sneaker culture.



I think brothas are quick to blame asian folks because so many of them are immersed in the culture and they oversaturate the sneaker buying market.


If you really want to point the finger at who's ruining it... cacs all day.

Gen Z privileged white kids ruined it something serious. They got a hold to bots and flipped the sneaker culture on it's head. It doesn't make it better that black folks are buying from them, cosigning them in videos, working with them in consignment stores

Here in Toronto its way different, definitely the asian demographic that spun things around.
They would pull up to campouts and just throw large amounts of money to cop their pairs because in Hong Kong, it was 10x to cop out there.
I remember when I was picking up my Jordan 1 Chicago x Off White, asian dudes pulled up didnt even know what size I had and were offering me $1,200 on the spot.
As far as actually reselling, a lot of shoes were being purchased here and moved overseas ..

:francis: There was a restock?

Restock at 10am for the Oreo's, Seafoams, and Tech Whites. I just wanted the Seafoams for my girl, but I was in a meeting at the time and didn't get to enter. Someone mentioned it in Sneakers Reddit this morning, but no confirmation until a few minutes before the drop.

Keep check of it tomorrow at the same time as it was also rumored that the Pollens, Kentuchy Dunks and another sneaker (can't remember) were suppose to second chance as well.

It was supposedly supposed to be the Kentuchy Low's along with them, but they might be restocking tomorrow. When I mentioned Dunks in particular, I was referring to the Social Status Dunks that dropped earlier. Some people settle with smaller sizes as resellers took everything else.

The social status dunks. Was inline within a minute, and still got screwed. People all on NikeTalk & Twitter talking about easy cop. FOH. 90% of those clowns trying to flip.

Didn’t even know about a Jordan restock.

I had to settle with a size 10 since the 10.5 was out of stock when I made it to checkout. You could tell who was trying to flip and who wasn't because a lot of them kept asking about the password page and getting size 5.5 and 15 just so they could flip for a profit :mjlol:

Reminds me of the Undefeated drop a couple of days ago when people were asking in the Twitter comments the answer to the question even in spite of being mentioned in the name of the shoe :russ:
