definition of a sneakerhead?

4 types.

and only one i effs with.

1. the privileged prince/ss

these are multimillion dollar kids who get shit for free. and they never seem to know the true value of a good kick. i saw one rich kid rocking a limited pair of alife kicks like they were copped at foot locker. one dude i know at least has the sense to get 3 to 4 kicks on ice. i mean they cool and all but who respects a cat that PAYS to get into a fraternity?

(they cop about 10-20 FREE pairs of rare kicks. Cut the line in front of everyone else)

2. the window shopper

these cats be on some snark/hate shit. the ones who can't get on the highway with they bicycle, tryna talk a good game. you can find these cats snarking online. they are also what i call "4.0 cats"....asking me what is the difference tween a 4.0 and a 4.6.
beat it cocksucker this is a grown man's sport. they also leave sweatshop holier than thou messages on boards to cover their anti kick game. im certain the very computer you purchased was sweatshop material too sporty. FOH.

(5 sneakers a year)

3. Lightweights.

they might jump in the pool a lil bit. maybe 2-3 kicks a month. but they play it safe. will only get a banger if everyone else thumbs it up. lemme state right now that NO shoe is a bad shoe. you just gotta know how to rock it and apply flavor to it.


4. SNAEKERHEAD.

these are cats that get up MAD early for some rare shit.
these are cats that pay for at least HALF of their rare collection (dont get it twisted...i cut the line like the prince kids...but damn if my hottest jawns come courtesy of my pockets and not me calling NIKE every 3 seconds) they are bold ass cats. they make their shoe a conversation piece. there is NO such thing as an ugly shoe to these cats. shit is about how much flavor you got. cats that know what time it is.

MY kinda cats! REAL SNEAKERHEADS.

if you fall into the number 4 slot then i got some news for you.

all week i'll be promoting my new (h)AIR ?uest 1

those in attendance will get an opportunity to get a "golden ticket"

(what is that you ask?)

go to my official blog for location and info!

I heard that, during a sagging economy, it is best to convert your finances into sneakers; that's how the wealthiest families in Germany rode out hyper inflation after WWI.
With gas prices as they are, it would be best to purchase, at least, 3 to 4 pair as this will allow you to "Have your sneaker and walk in them to".

seriously: Did you give any thought to the Thank's Giving Day Parade idea? (as mentioned in your other blog)

Part of me congratulates you on your achievement on your idea of "success".
Part of me it revulted by the idea, let alone the ACTUALITY that ANY product of Nike is revered as a success- and has for so long, considering the TREMENDOUS damage the company effects throughout the world. The documentary, "The Corporation" and one of Michael Moore's opened my eyes and heart (unlike theirs. yours too?). I bet if someone stole your sneaker collection you'd be on the verge of tears, if not wailing.

Sneakers are some of the most comfortable footwear ever created. I love them as well. Our love doesn't have to be at the expense of many creatures (including fellow and cherished humans) who coexist with us, like ourSelves.

think

love ALL ways

charity is the catalyst

 
first...congrats on the shoe! now USUALLY, im a sneakerheadchick who purposely stays away from air force ones...but a voice kept coming to me in my sleep saying...hey you GOTTA GET THESE QUESTOS...so i made up my mind to get em...then i realized that, im stuck in sneaker purgatory known as texasland (which is also hip hop purgatory seeing as how rock the bells makes NO stop here) anyhow...i really really really do want these, i think i might be willing to trade my clot air max 1 for them....*pause*...i dont think i'd go that fare but i am willing to part with some serious heat sooooooooooooo...that being said, if you or anybody who reads this wants to talk turkey...im online!

i gotta give you kudos for having your own jawn, even though i don't personally give a shit about my own shoes, the jumps i wear, my grandpa bought for me at the p/x for like twenty bizznones.

the kudos are for the "beat it cocksucker" reference. you are the king of all references, for real.

forty grand cocksucker, beat it!

some of us gotta be lightweights but its never by choice.

for example..

say we just copped 2 pairs in the last week...pair of pumas i never seen. hella on sell.

then 2 days later by a pair of clean ass dunks from a boutique for like a bill.

but now its 3 weeks later..gotta pay car payment and rent but happen to go to the mall for some random nothing n i walk by some niiiiiice air maxs thinkin man i know i cant afford those. ok fuck it..cop em anyway.

2 days later walk by the boutique again, of course by default cuz you just happen to be walkin to the bart station or somethin...and then you have to say "no". i cant do this today. im not about to transfer funds from the savings just so i dont get an overdraft fee. lol

in other words...we aint lightweights by choice :)

Wow ?. That blogs sounds like some judgmental hater shit. Not everyone can afford the same ish as you and not everyone can choose the financial situation that they are born into. I dont know why this upsets me? Maybe I cant figure out which box to put myself in. However, I dig your music and your style. I actually think The Roots are possibly the greatest rock band of all time. Sorry?
