Okay so while roaming blogspizzle...I bumped into a blog that I like to read from time to time. And the subject of "sneaker heads" came up.
I must admit I'm especially sick of this fad and the people who claim to live a lifestyle just because its the new "it" thing. When I say lifestyle what I mean is people who have been into sneakerks hard body since they were kids and the people who pretend to be that way that just blue a whole months income on sneakers and have claimed to been collecting since they were younger.
So the guy was going on saying how he's sick of it and then he
says this "right now you will see a girl with jordans who has never seen mike play and doesn't even know where he's coming from"
Okay, so, this is where I raise my eyebrow.
So after he says that he goes on to say how he doesn't identify himself with anything he's just always loved sneakers... And then he said you should wear what you like, blah....blah...blah!
So at this point I'm thinking to myself okay this guy has lost himself in this hype aswell.
Okay as I said above it is very annoying to see people pretending to live a LIFESTYLE that isn't true to them and they are simply doing it to appear "deep" I'm guessing? And I totally understand why people who've actually been living that "hypebeast" life since they copped their first pair of jordans on christmas when they were 5 and have been sticking with sneakers every since then are mad by all of this craze.
BUT! Bottom line niggas can't assume every person who walks by with a pair of jordans on are pretending to be a "hypebeast"..."Sneaker head" or whatever. And as far as him saying "you will see a girl with a pair of jordans on and she's never seen him play yada yada yada" come on mannnnn.......I mean I shouldn't have to go into detail as to why that statement is pure and utter stupidity.
The crazy part is, right after that he goes on to say "just wear what u like" okay, let's say for instance this girl didn't know who jordan was but she still copped the sneakers.......fuck, what if she just liked them? What if she had a shirt that went with them perfect? Now all of sudden she's a "poser"?
Fuck outta here.....
I study fashion, its what I go to school for. So let me just say this...there is a MAJOR differance between following fashion and being a poser. I don't knock a person who follows fashion AT ALL and neither can you self-proclaimed "hypebeast" because you doing it everytime you go shopping. Yall getting mad hype over regular ass people who wear a nice pair of sneakers from time to time and me being one of those regulars I'd like to say on behalf of us regular people....
*ahem*
Shut the fuck up and stop beastin over the hype!!!!!!
I'm 5'10 without shoes....sometimes I don't want to be 6'1 with my heels on....maybe I want to just kick back with a nice pair of supra's on or even some sb's.....but since I do that I'm a poser!?!?!?
Ugh! I think the only sain people left are us regulars....the rest of you posers and hypebeast alike are lost in the maddness.
Smh.....now get mad and all butt hurt because I pulled ur card.
