Thought i could make a thread so all the zilvia sneakerheads can come together and talk about kicks. Share pics of some heat you guys have. Talk about upcoming releases and if you are gonna cop or not.

Here are some of my recent purchases.


Jordan 4's Military blue for me, my girl and son


Jordan 4's fire red for me and my son




Can not wait for the "Bred" 4's in November.


As you can see i love Jordan 4's but have a lot more shoes that i'll post later.

p.s. If you dont like shoes and think spending money on shoes is dumb then dont post. Sneakerheads know what certain shoes are worth so lets keep this cool.

theres a fashion thread floating around

Actually gave up my grails for S13 parts, haha. I'm still subtlety in the game but I only cop shoes that I can wear. Here are some of my grails.

nice line up, i feel the same way i only buy to wear.

I have metalic 5's from 2007 release. And my sons first pair of J's Concord 11's

I couldn't & still can't commit to buying any of recent releases. After seeing the Cool Grey's & the workmanship that JB put into their shoes, I could NOT see myself buying re-re-re-re-re-retros.

The Chicago's that came out were NOTHING like my old '95 Orlando's. The material was shit and my shoes were from fucking '95. And don't even get me started on the Cement IV's they put out.

However, the re-re-re-re-release of the 3's were alright. I wanted to cop but I was fine borrowing my cousin's 01's if I ever wanted to wear 'em, haha.

With all of this said, the shoe game has gone to shit. Camp-out's are absolutely dangerous, resellers ask for double retail, little boppers think they're collectors with the shitty bullshit that Jordan brand is putting out. Same went for Nike, after those black/purple releases, it went downhill.

EVERYTHING you said is why I do not allow myself to pay full price for anything. The triple stitching and better leathers from the Jordans I had in middle and high school are all gone, and the shoes are technologically inferior, but INVARIABLY cost more. As I am one to buy shoes that I intend to wear, I will not pay that kind of money for a lesser product.
I do most of my sneaker shopping in “comeup” mode – I will scour outlets and such for 60% or more off of retail.

My store does a twitter lottery/RSVP. Nike has adapted to that style of releases as well.

No more camp-outs needed.

I agree on the quality thing, i was not very happy with my fire red 4's but ive always loved sneakers and will continue to collect. The thing with 90's shoes are they are EXPENSIVE to buy because they are "OG" and turn yellow quickly and the soles start to fall apart.

slamburger

Here is one of my OG shoes, Max uptempo's black and volt

tricky_ab

^^ I had a pair of those in High school!

I sold a LOT of my collection when I was in University since I could use the money at that time. I haven't been looking much as of late but I've got my eyes on a Jordan VI USA pack and a pair of foamposite's.

For leather shoes and such, I just use the mr clean magic eraser to clean up my shoes. Works very well.

Anyways, I wish I can love shoes the way I did. I never had some heat, but I still appreciated the ones I had mostly Nike sb. I sold most of my shoes :/. I'm more into janoski's now. They are simple and nice!
