    Hello, I am Free The Culture, sneaker enthuasist and streetwear influencer. I have been into fashion since I was a teenager. I always enjoy anime and music, this passion led me to express myself through my clothing.
    As men, we often leave ourselves subject to monotony. Sometimes, we have to think outside of the box to achieve a desired look.
    On this channel, you will see outfits for men and sneaker reviews. I will show you how to style everything from men's casualwear to men's formal wear.
    My speciality is Yeezys but I can show how to wear all sorts of shoes, including Converse High Tops, Vans, Ultraboost, Black Airforce 1s. White Airforce 1s, Jordan 1s, and many more.
    Be sure to check out my lastest videos!

      Oh don’t get me started with Ticketmaster. That entire system is corrupted. Ticketmaster works just like eBay does with buyer sellers profits. They allow the scalpers to buy 90/% of the seats and then when the scalper sells it to the attended at the higher price Ticketmaster gets a percentage from that. And what makes that vicious circle continue are the sheep that continue to buy that exaggerated price for every show. Frustrating to know a ticket for a show is retailed for $80-$150 but resold for $800-$1k that’s just criminal.

Now its damn near every week at 200+ dollars 100+ kids 85+ toddlers thats fuckn in sane

    Selection paralysis. Great phrase happens to me all the time. My rules for myself are simple if I really like a shoe and it's sold out I'll pay 40-50 bucks above the original retail price. If I love a shoe and must have it I'll go double the original retail price BUT if they want one cent past that it's either forget about it or it's UA time.

You gotta go through a middle man and pay him 10x fold cause his Bot 🤖 just took it out your cart within a minute of it posting on the official site.

    Jordan 4 white and gold $220, good price?
    I've never owned a pair of Jordan's and not a sneakerhead at all.
    Is this a good price? I've never been into sneakers all that much, I stick to chucks and random skate shoes.
    Anywho, good price?
    A co-worker is a reseller and was talking to me about his business. I looked at a few pairs, and those caught my eye and couldn't stop thinking about them.

    At this point if I want to wear a shoe, I’d get a rep, if I can’t get retail, like if I wanna wear Travis 1 to WEAR and beat up I’d get a rep, people regardless will think your dumb for spending $1,000+ for spending on pair of travis. Only person who cares what’s on your foot should be is you, same with pew go buy designers bags, nobody bats an eye on what you do. Like even spending retail is sometimes hard lol, why should I get those sitting and paying 200$ for Jordan for retail when I can get a grail shoe I always wanted, for much less LOL. Don’t wanna hear about the quality because it’s insane how fakes was 10+ years ago

    I was a shoe collector for over a decade. Started when i was a freshman in high school and throughout college, but about a year ago I stopped because every shoe drop was “limited” or a collab of some kind. Shops would even raffle off GR dunks 🤣🤣🤣. The artificial scarcity/hype these brands created started to become cringe to me. I been rocking chuck 70s all year and they go with everything! 🫡
