Shoecels are in my top 5 of most cringe :marseycricket2: enthusiasts. Here's a video :marseyfighter: of Whistlin Diesel using a $35k pair of Air Mags as work boots

Its the one kind of enthusiast that I cannot understand at all. :marseyconfused: Like with other kinds, there's at least some kind of appreciable qualities and differences between the things.

But these are just :marseyshoe: shoes. "Sports" shoes that all practically look identical to each other, all nearly identical in construction.

Because they're all made in the same handful of sweatshops by children.

Nike distribution centers have a hilarious amount of security for employees entry and exit. Looks like an airport.

To understand a Sneakerhead :marseygucci: you have to think :marseyquestion: like one, they don't just see the sneakers as a shoe, they see them as Art :marseypainter: and go after limited releases just to flex:platyrich: on other sneakerheads, it's very similar to Car enthusiasts the difference being they are usually black and younger :marseyblack: than 65 years old.It's kinda weird but at least it's more respectable than Vydia collectors that buy 30-year-old crap you can play for free on emulator.

I can understand being into all kinds of fashion :marsey6pieceeyebrowtrimmer: except for sneakers

I have shirts and pants :marseyjeans: 40 years old, coats will last forever, leather :marseybountyhunter: dress :marseypennyboo: shoes :marseyinboots: can be cobbled and patched and polished.

But sneakers?

Sneakers are disposable :marseyredshirt: trash :marseyraccoonregular: with no craftsmanship in their construction. There's only like two brands anyone cares about. And everyone :marseynorm: into it is just doing it for money :marseybipocmerchant: or clout
