    Wore these old-ass, secondhand AJ1s today.

    First of my two Sacai Undercover LDWaffles came, too.

    c'mon man, I can't tell if I need to break my neck or if you're climbing a f'ing wall. :D:p

    They look superimposed... and also look like you are here to provide services in my home without leaving a trace behind. Or, maybe if the world jizzed on you? It is so impressed it blew its load on your clean 'ye's.

    As you can tell - I am quite conflicted by what Kanye is trying to say with this sneaker. :drunk:

    Exactly, I like them because they are so different, but also not ugly. Now I just need some leather pants for the full Ye fit (name officially changed to Ye now)

    Ye is basically the modern Michael Jackson, so all this stuff makes sense in a rather odd way. I think some of my love-loss in sneakers came around the time he went Nike -> Adidas. Not that event, but the fact that I had transitioned too - I saw the change that Kanye probably saw too. Gotta keep-up with the new generation if ya wanna have that drip.

    Not sure which colorway I like better. I suspect it might be the blue but let's see.

    I participated as soon as the draw opened up earlier this AM. It's like uggs stuffed on runners and looks warm. With some DWR spray, it'll be a solid winter choice.

    Took an L on the boots, the Patta AM1s and the Saquon Barkleys. On the plus side, I managed to snag the AM90 surplus again when it popped up in my size for 30 seconds. Hope this one actually comes. Thankfully it's UPS this time.

    Lol at that “participate” button. Serious late-stage capitalism vibes.

    The boots have a very leaning-into-the-wind rake to them. Does that aggressive cut make the fit weird?

    They're floppy enough that it isn't an issue. I suspect they're comfy AF. Was hoping they'd be my first Yeezys but oh well.

    Those are terrible. I want the 1050s, though:

    I want those but I think the orange is a bit bold, and the rumored $400 price is expensive

    It's less orange than my other orange shoes :). At $400 it's a question of do I want these, or do I want to pick up something on resale I've been eyeing like the Dia de los Muertos air max 90s?

    maxresdefault (1).jpg

    Today was a BeTrue air max pre day day:

    20211106_095949~3.jpg

    Since they're not Jordans or AM1/90/95/97 or the like, I don't count them in my sneaker counts so I can feel good about keeping my collection "small"
