HSS went with complete randomness
I like some 12s. 13s are fine but not bag really. I definitely love 11s.aTm_bomb said:
Riddle me this Sneaker thread, My childhood sneaker obsession was right in the prime of Jordan's (11s, 12, 13s) and I have always loved the Flint 13s.
I have considered pulling the trigger on some but the upcoming Blue Grey 13s drop in February has me torn.
What are the threads thoughts between these 2? They would be worn and not for collecting.
I don't see a lot of love for the 12's and 13's on here so was curious how others felt about 12's and 13's on here. Really intrigued by the Columbia Blue 11s in Dec 2024 but bet those will be unobtainable first hand and insanely priced on secondary market.
I only have one pair of 12s tho, the recent "Gone Fishing" pair which I really like and got for dirt cheap. It's nice when the **** I like isn't hyped up.

I had a pair of Jordan 13's when I was in 7th grade (1997). All I remember is that it seemed like they were cheaply made, and I pick off the thin layer of "pleather" when I was bored in class. Not a fan.
I don't think anything will ever beat the 11's.

Yep, I actually didn't know it was like that until I opened the box. It was a nice surprise. One of my favorite pairs.
Cool. I appreciate the feedback.

3/4/5's and 11/12/13's are the greatest consecutive sneaker line runs ever. I truly can't decide which run is superior. All iconic shoes.aTm_bomb said:

Has MJ ever said what his favorite ones were? Just out of curiosity.
11, then 3s. Then 12/13.

They are definitely reps. Got them about a month ago.

3's are my personal favorite, mostly because of how iconic they are, and partly because I can pull them off better than others…but I cannot imagine playing basketball in these things. Would kill my feet. I am guessing we are getting the low quality novelty version nowadays. My 2016 true blues are much more comfortable than the recent 2022 and 2023 models.
They're awesome, and a perfect example of why you get reps. Unless you want to pay $8k for a brand new pair of 18-year old dead stock.
I have a pair of summit white/wolf grey SB reps that I love, just not $2000 love.

You could just be getting old…
I agree with this thought. I was middle school for the 11/12/13 era.
Pretty close to pulling the trigger on some lightly used Playoff 12s on eBay but waiting to see if I score some YOTD jordan 1s on Wednesday.

Was able to find a pair of burgundy 993s that I've been looking for for a while. Can't have enough maroon shoes.
Those are nice…

Butter.
My kudu leather Overstone are on the way from Crown Northampton. Lol I'm excited. Should be more casual and suitable for everyday wear than my $400 pair. Maybe get another pair of Nikes next? Killshot 2 maybe?

Why do gum soles look so good? I have decided my next shoe will have a gum sole. I have waited far too long.
For a sneakerhead thread, there is an embarrassing number of people celebrating reps…

Ya know…with the ridiculous resale markup, I do not blame people who go that route…
And plus, they all get made in sweatshops anyway

Username checks out.
Why you gotta set me up like that? I'm gonna do some ethics training because now I feel bad.
I say wear what you like, and if you don't want to pay $8000 for shoes but can get a pair of reps that you want, WGAS?
to me, shoes give me confidence with my outfits more than anything else. so if that means i have a couple pairs of reps, than so be it.
I couldn't give one single damn about reps or not. As above, they are all made by underpaid people in sweat shops and literally no one on the street can tell the difference and its not like jordans or whatever have some magical thing about them that makes the legit ones special. Only issue I would have with reps is I can't imagine knockoff yeezys could be as comfortable as the real thing.
Do what you want and call them what you want but it's a weird flex to roll around with fake versions of real products…
They give you confidence bc they are the grails of the sneaker industry and impossible to get.
Are you telling people they are fakes?

Fan of real HEAT only, I presume?
So in other words you are saying if it isn't a 2,000 shoe then the sneakers are not HEAT
