The current wave is hi top AF1s with knee high socks and either designer gym or sweat shorts

Virgil abloh changed the game with them Pyrex (champion) shorts ...now every brand does that shyt

yall gotta stop with these type of "observations" because it is drenched with ignorance...unless Nike and Timb was created by a black hiphop inventor from the hood, then it is safe to say that both companies had white folks wearing their product

Question: "When did white people start rocking AF1's and Timbs?"

Answer: "When they invented them."

Simple question, simple answer.

i remember growing up the ONLY people rocking timbs or AF1 were black people no exceptions but now a days white people are rocking them more than black people . Im not talking about wiggas either i've even seen white babies rocking them .

Just today i was in town checking a few things and saw plenty white people rocking af1 never saw these back when nelly dropped air force ones or even after the track was dropped. why/when did white people start rocking them

We're late on everything. Got a number from a bartender yesterday. 21. She was cool, white, pretty, blahzay, blahzay...

She comes out from behind the bar and was rocking all black AF1's.

Almost lost the number.

But, then again, she's young and probably thinks its "retro".

Germans were rocking Timbs hardcore in 2013. You know the US is like 1-2 years behind Europe in terms of mainstream fashion.

Same thing all those people rocking button up shirts with patterns, flowers, and birds. Everyone in the UK was rocking them last year. This year in the U.S. I see a flood of people wearing them, at least that is what I notice in Houston.

Houston is late on all fashion trends breh.

People who ask these questions are so funny to me. They live in a box and act surprised the world isn't as small as they thought

If you know the history of Timberlands and how/why they became popular in Hip-Hop, this is nothing new. The construction Timbs were popular in Europe before they caught on here as everyday wear.

But that didn’t stop its appeal spreading worldwide – in Europe it became the symbol of the “Made in the USA” look, in Asia it became a statement of individuality, and in America you were as likely to see it on a boat-builder in Massachusetts as a college student in California.

Whatever dog, if you say so.

The rest of us know white people been rocking Timbs and Forces for decades. Just like white people been rocking Wallabees. Matter of fact, if anything, people not even rocking Forces like that anymore. They didn't fall off, they just not as hot as they used to be in fashion. So ya, you sound like you live in a box thinking only hood nikkas and NYers rock forces and Timbs.
