Someone close to me was a drug dealer and they got what was hot. I don’t think they considered themselves “sneaker heads”

Asian brehs cared more than drug dealers :manny:

But this just might be a Cali thing.

nikkas in my hood fukked with forces more than J’s.

Thinking back yea I agree. I'm old enough to remember when J's use to be released with 2 different colors at the same time (4s and 5s in particular). Back then you were lucky enough to get a pair of J's but the drug dealers(and spoiled cats who parents had bread) use to come to school with one color on one foot and another on the other.

He right tho of course he speaking generally and it’s always gonna be cases of other ppl you can bring up but as a whole he right.. same wit the chains n shyt .. rappers use to try to be like the dope dealers and then everybody copied the rappers.. now you got the everyday person walking round in chains, Jordan’s Cartier frames etc
