    I figured someone would be on here...

    Not me but I have a co-worker who's a serious collector of Jordans. I think he could send his kids to college on what he spends on shoes.

    I guess everybody likes to collect something.

    I stopped collecting hardcore after going to a sneaker show and some 12 yrold who wore maybe a size 7 holding my size 11.5 Blue Lobsters. That was a sign of things to come so I buy only what I wear now. There isn't any investment in modern sneakers now. The glory years were 2006-2010. Shoes were affordable and not that hard to get. Shortly there after Jordan brand started to produce more and more to combat reselling and demand.

    I just got my first pair of Jordan's. Kind of a middle tier. Not the cheapest, not the most expensive. I don't see myself collecting tons of them or anything, but I do look quite a bit now if I'm out and about
    This will only take a while

    You'll have fun in a pair of Retros. The older Jordans were casual and court. You could wear them out afterwards. You can't do that with today's kicks...

    Those DB 7's are nice. I got a huge L though.

    I don't "collect" shoes, but I will only buy Nike sneakers and am in fact going to get a new pair today at the outlet in Woodburn. I will only wear brightly colored ones.

    These are so sick! I wonder if JB would release these?

    So I'm looking for the OONW Lebron 14's OONW stands for Out Of NoWhere. It's a homage to his block in the finals. He has another pair releasing friday too called Chase Down.

    Color me impressed. My collection was only up to 6 or so when I sold it off on ebay 15 years ago. I now have zero pairs. But if I could find a pair of V or VI I'd buy them...

    XI Space Jams
    XI Concord
    XIII Chutney
    VI Black Infrared

    XX3 Old Love
    I Banned OG

    Honorable mentions are:
    XI Cool Grey
    XX1 Red Suede
    XIII Flint
    III Black Cement

    And something that might be blasphemous to some but I love the Bragging Rights series... Not my pic.
