Real question we should be asking is if old ass millennials are still rocking J's to their office jobs, doctors appointments , and childrens recitals.
Buncha 40 somethings still dressing young on some r kelly shyt

You guys always say this stuff. If you’ve ever been in meetings with “real money” every executive in there is probably wearing Jordan’s, and the majority of them are old white men

I'm the CFO of two multimillion dollar corporations. I'm in these types of meetings physically at least 3 three times a week and everyday virtually and that has not been my experience.

I’ve been in hundreds of meeting with Top Dawg, with executives from the music and movie and industry and I can tell you that’s what they’re wearing

My son is an Alpha (had to look it up 2013-present) so he just missed being a Gen Z. He's 11 and got a pair of Jordan 3's and a pair of Jordan 4's for Christmas. He still loves Jordan's.

Still see Jordan's being worn by all ages, sexes, races around where I live. I do see a ton of people wearing NB. Not as much wearing Asics. Seems like the sneaker industry is finally branching out from the grip that Nike/Jordan brand had for a long time.

As for outside of the box and comfort. Wore a pair of brand new Air Max 1's a few days ago and they weren't broken in and were hurting my feet. Later threw on a pair of Salomon XT-6 and they fit and are so comfortable. I know most people here wouldn't ever wear, but they are quality.

I'm in the midwest and Gen Z still loves Jordans.

They also wear Yeezys and NB. Specfically the 9060's.

And oddly, Asics.

EDIT:

As far as Jordans sitting, it's wholly dependent on where it is. I've noticed upscale areas and/or malls further out will have rare shoes sitting because nobody goes shoe shopping in those places.

Gen Z wears Panda Dunks. That's it. :pachaha:
LOL yesterday I was just thinking how common the Panda dunks are when some dude was standing next to me wearing them when I was wearing mine.:pachaha:
They’re definitely my favorite pair of shoes in my closet. Simple, not bulky as hell like Js and can go with anything.:pachaha:

Times have definitely changed from when the "gettin money boys" was telling MJ to go to his house to release the shoes and women were afraid the kids would get ammonia standing outside for shoes.


This is classic. I forgot. Lol.

Pretty sure that's Greenpoint Mall in Houston
