It's one of those things that you collect/put up as display. I would never be caught dead wearing those in public.

i thought they were ugly, when i heard that lineups were gonna be long i was thinking to myself "why would people line up for such an ugly shoe?" but i guess it might be their style or something to add to their collection

their a decent pair of shoes, those who can rock it, can rock it well. But their pretty much over hyped.

For Example: BAD

They look like a pair of Team Jordans with bootleg AJIII soles but just because they're stamped by Kanye's name everybody wants a pair. Had this been a pair of Non-Air Jordans or some regular Nikes nobody would be buying these.

I lined up for these at LS and got myself a pair. Im prob going to get the black ones too when they release. Pretty good profit from these shoes, excellent for when I sell months/years down the road haha.

Sell them while they're hot. I picked up a pair of Day of the Dead Dunk SBs from Underworld when they dropped for $200CAN + tax. I resold them two days later for $650US while my friends still kept theirs thinking the price would go higher even though they already had offers of $600-$700US. A month later the shoes were only going for around $300-$400US and now they're like what? $200US?

If your main goal is to make a profit, flip them while they're hot.

Saw them when I was in HK last week. Didn't realize how hot they were. I woulda copped a pair just to flip them. Not feeling them myself tho.

My reason is that he has various disorders. Look at his head, looks like Randal's from Recess, he has a fucked up eye, and he apparently is 21. So I'm guessing he's one of those dying kids and their parents would blow all their money to make him happy.

Just because he's got a few pairs of orange/pink box Dunk SB's doesn't mean he's loaded. He mentions shoes he got for a bargain so you know he's shopping around. I know when I collected shoes, how good of a deal I got and the process I went through to find them was a thrill in my hunt for sneakers.

I bought two DS pairs of Home Guns and St. Pattys for $260 locally back in the day. I flipped the St. Pattys for $230US which meant I practically got the Rayguns for free. I wore the shoes and beat them up a bit and still got $200 when I got out of the game. When I worked at Foot Locker I'd buy shoes for so cheap I was able to wear them and resell them later to make a small profit.
