“Man, why you wearing those?”

“You too old to wear those.”

I've never had anybody say that to my face, but those are some of the reactions I get as a 61-year-old Air Jordan collector. Does it happen on the internet? Oh yeah. People have stuff to say about my sneakers on there all day.

“Sell me those.”

“You too old to have those. Let me have them.”

I get those comments a lot, and I respond to pretty much all of them. What do I say back? I'm not too old to wear Jordan. You are never too old. You can wear what you want to wear at any age.

That’s how I felt when I saw a clip from the Complex Sneakers Show last weekend discussing the idea that Jordans aren’t as comfortable when you get older. I see that a lot myself, in comments on posts that I make. People feel as though you should transition to some New Balances or something like that when you hit a certain age. But I've never understood what age has to do with what type of shoes you wear.

No, I don't think there's an age limit on Jordans. I think it is up to the person to decide what they want to wear, and not an age limit.

Mark Bostic aka Jumpmanbostic speaks on there being no age limit to wearing Jordans. LINK IN BIO to read more 🔗

I was at the Alma Mater for the Drake-USD game and I ran across memorabilia from the 1984 NCAA tournament team with a popular name on it.

So many INCONSISTENCIES with this release. @nike you really need to do better and monitor a lot better what going on. You have to know this mess is going on, we know you don’t care, but you should.
I made a post regarding the Travis Scott 1’s yesterday that has stirred a conversation. My shoes have some letters and numbers (MS 13#-18#) that’s exposed and NOT covered up by stitching.
I received a lot of DM’s and comments about that. Many stated there’s isn’t exposed and they received pairs from the early SNKRS APP release, NIKE.com and other Retail Store releases.
I contacted a very credible source from Nike who stated all pairs have the numbers BUT many were stitched 🧵 so the letters and numbers aren’t visible. This is very interesting to me, what’s your thoughts on this if you have any or even care.
I believe Nike/ it’s factories/ quality control should do a much better job of being consistent with their productions and at least advise us the consumers of their inconsistencies. Maybe all of that is to much to ask! 🤷🏾‍♂️
Thank you
