As rappers drop the affordability of chains & diamonds, all focus go on the rare (expensive) culture of sneakers.
fyi. its been the only way I bought shoes. So far the shoes I bought in 2006 & 7, the gold Air Max 90 Aztecs & Patent leather-McFlys, both authentic. I’ve yet to see, let alone know the official stock nicknames…but I only paid 100 for both pairs…TOGETHER. Maybe rarity is to find exclusive sneakers for cheap…
Also there is a gang of forgeries on the market so if you do buy..be careful.
