You got something cooking with the Nikes in Memphis. Most of the Nikes I get here are from there. I worked at a Nike Outlet for a bit and ordered through Nike for myself. I know.

As for Vans, fukk no . I couldn't wear those shyts. I remember kids getting jumped at school just for wearing them. Now the same kids who were the bullies in school suddenly jump on the Pack's dikk when they came out with that song :comeon:. nikkaS IN NORTHERN CALIFORNIA DIDN'T ROCK VANS UNTIL 2004.

They're too dull-looking for me and nikkas only rocked them because of the song. I'll stick to my SB Dunks , Air Max and Lunars


Where in Memphis? The Nike distribution center?

i was born in a pair of j's so i'm biased, but i have been reluctant as hell to cop a 200 dollar shoe. the black kobe elite was the closest i was to coppin, but then again it was still 200 dollars :ld:

bought this collection 4 years ago, but regretted it as soon i scuffed the black pair. something possessed me to wear them to the club :snoop:

Yeah these prices are crazy. I bought some Adidas last week for $90 and I thought that was almost too much.

Superstars is all i have been wearing for the past 10 years. I have all different colors, but the same shoe. most i've paid for a pair is $80, and they were custom.

I really don't care what somebody spends their *MONEY* on, but if you are paying $250 for some sneakers, you shouldn't be saying or doing

*College is to expensive, I can't afford to go or I can't afford to invest in myself.

*If you are over the age of 25 and making less than $20hr , well kill yourself.
