true man hes like oh i just saw how much money i could make. Your a grown ass man selling shoes just for money he probably doesnt even know what half of them are
Eric V No, I am a reseller but love shoes I love getting my hand on rare pairs that I don’t want to wear so I enjoy the time I see them sell them and if I do want a nice pair I will sell to buy them. Don’t blatantly call out people with facts that aren’t true
That teacher deserves an award because that's brilliant what he is doing. Get the kids involved in what they like and he found just that. Hard to underestimate how much the kids will learn from him that in any other classroom they would not. We need more like him in the schools that understand what the kids are into and how to incorporate that into the curriculum.
@Zo Kay It's not artificial because EVERYTHING in the market is scarce, in this case, manufactured scarcity but scarcity nonetheless, it's the most basic tactic you can use to sell your product. And i know cheap economic gurus LOVE to make the example of shoes, and their production costs vs their ultimate price, but thats like saying water is wet; a bag of rice costs 15 cents to farm and another 15 to package plus 20 cents transportation, final cost :1.50 The thing about the guys that make those pathetic and pretentious TED talks about the """"overpriced products"""" always ignore the most basic factor when a purchase is made: happinnes, or utility.
Ah I still remember when I use to go crazy for Jordan's. Prices literally sky rocketed but the quality of the shoe went downhill. Literally the last pairs I bought were the AJ Cool Grey 9's & Fire Red 5's. Maybe I'll cop the SpaceJam 11's this Christmas. Was a freshmen in HS when I got the 09 release 😁
We get it with the "you buy your shoes at Payless" you don't care about sneakers... Some of us love this culture and hunting for our grails... Its nostalgia for buying a Jordan we wore back in the 90's or lucking out and snagging a limited shoe at retail. It's just a fun experience. Not hating on people that have their opinions of sneakerheads; just saying its a cultural experience for some just like music, cinema, and etc for others.
+The True Endless Waltz you act like you are the first one to know that sneakers are made in China lol. And you completely missed what I was trying to explain.
+The True Endless Waltz ok ok hotshot. I guess me and the millions of others are all Sneakerhead idiots. But you go ahead and enjoy your fine Italian made sneakers. I'll keep enjoying mine lol.
It's a generation thing. In my 20's I would spend hundreds on sneakers. Now that I'm in my 30's I won't spend over $60 on a pair of shoes and will only buy a pair when I actually need it. So about a pair every 3 years. Ha. It is silly to me seeing grown men in their 30's and even 40's though wearing Jordans or unlaced tims..
You increasing corporate profits while being an ass at the same time. If you guys designed your own footwear, you would not be paying such insane prices
As a collector with about 400 pairs of kicks, I can honestly say that this documentary piece has shed light on why the game is unfortunately dead. People no longer buying kicks for the love and the history and the nostalgia. Now we have rich guys buying shoes just to flip and make profit. Look I'm a capitalist, and I understand their right to resell but for those of us who wear our shoes (I have worn all 400 or mine) these guys have destroyed the game. I want Kaws to wear. These guys want Kaws to sell and make a grand. They have the insider hook ups to get them, and people like me are shut out.
I like how easy it is getting selling stuff for way more than it is worth. Companies must be going crazy knowing it is getting easier to convince people to buy stuff they don't really need.
We get it. Anyone who likes shoes are toolbags and are irresponsible with money. Chill comments. Everyone has something they collect...some of us collect sneakers.
+SwaggyT amen. It is frowned upon in the sneaker community to be a reseller, but it is an honest way to grow your collection, meet people, make money, and stay off of the streets.
Basically 90% of the comment section, "what!!!!!??? You want to buy something that you like that I don't like???? Why would you buy $400 shoes?? I'll enjoy my $50 Pumas thanks 🐸☕️" half these people probably wrote their comment with a $1200 iPhone lmao.
What you're saying doesn't affect the rich. I've sold a pair of yeezy's after buying them for retail for 300% profit over the summer. The guy makes 6 digits, while I'm just a college guy. When demand is high, you bet people are going to pay the price for it. Take your high school economics class to learn that.
Pro tip: when buying at a sneaker expo, buy when the event is about to end because the resellers would usually give you a lower price and maybe a steal
THe cost isn't exactly a dollar. But when you consider what these retailers buy the materials for a bulk prices and divide its price into each shoe the price is next to nothing compared to what nike sells to other retailers like footlocker for.
+. Complex made a video explaining the cost of adidas and Nike shoes. Most shoes cost about $20 to make, after that adidas sells them to distributors and they are the ones who mark up the price to hundreds of dollars. Nike and adidas also have to pay for tons of stuff apart from making the shoe from marketing to paying the athlete/celebrity. Don't be quick to judge and if your not passionate about sneakers don't bash on the people who are.
Cássio Azevedo How I mean what’s wrong with it if it teaches kids how to make money out of something that they enjoy? It’s better then them falling asleep in another class while the teacher teaches about some shit that they won’t ever use in life
i get that your joking, but that isnt a class about sneakers, its a class about the economy and it keeps the kids attention because it involves a large part of their culture which is sneakers
can steal yo bitch with my crocs females don't gaf about shoes they care about your financial stability alot of these fools use their parents money or stupid enough to work their 9 to 5 to spend 2 weeks worth of work on a pair of shoes
I agree, Jordan is iconic, a bball Legend and part of history for both the NBA and the Bulls/Chicago. Curry's won't have a long career due to legs and he didn't change the game, it's not even a comparison that should be made.
Good point, but then I have to ask about the defense of the modern era vs the defense of the 80s and 90s. Sure Curry is an exceptional shooter, as good or better than Reggie Miller or HeGotGame, but he isn't playing against the legends of the 80s/90s either who are playing full out war mode. Even roleplayers back in the 80s were the very best college players who came to the NBA after growing into a 22/23 year old body with higher level competition in college.
I stop buying resell, I use to buy resell all the time cause it was convenient but the pricing is getting ridicules. I try my luck with retail and if im unsuccessful ill just keep my $400 because thats about average of what I was paying. The resell market has gotten so out of hand that I lost the passion of sneakers
That's why you get the shoes retail lmfao. I have a couple pairs of nmd's and yeezy's in my closet. No biggy at all. Ultraboosts, most of them are retail
Bro resellers are lame. They are destroying the business. I understand selling shoes here and there but straight up scamming buying the most pairs every release to make a couple bucks is lame. Killing the hype for ppl who actually have a true passion for shoes and aren’t able to get it because of resellers.
As long as there is a small supply and high demand, there will be resellers. If there aren't, why shouldn't I come in and resell a pair of Jordans for 10k?
I think It's dying down though a lot of the shoes just sit on eBay and other buy snd sell sites because people are tired of paying the greedy prices. Serves them right though because their bums that don't even care for the product. The best thing anyone can do is just let the resellers get stuck with the product so they realize they made a mistake. As far as the companies their part of the problem because they allow it to go on. All the shoes people want are gone within a day and they don't restock even though they can. Yet celebrities are given them with no hassle at all and they don't even have to pay for them even though they have multi millions of dollars. Sick world we live in. The way to end this system though is for Nike and all retailers and online buy and sell posts to take everyone's Id and any other personal information and if their found selling the item for any more than retail value they'll be charged. Also meet the demand for their supplies. I watched a video recently that was posted the Jordan Facebook page for the new Jordan 3's free throw line and black cements and there is a line in the video by the narrator saying these shoes weren't made for resellers. Really! Then why are you allowing the one day and done stock. It's so easy to fix it but like this world they allow corruption.
Daniel Schneider that false dream you gave just won’t happen yes many shoes stay there but that means that buyer did poor research. As me a personal reseller you watch the hype and the shoes you know are going to sell out from Nike in an hour. Buy it and resell it.
Its more than the cost and production of the shoe. Its the rarity, thought, and culture that goes into it. Its not the shoe itself its the ideas and creative thinking that went into it. Every shoe is a piece of art, a piece of thinking, a piece of a culture that some misunderstand and overlook.Most shoes even come from an iconic moment or time and the shoe is I portal to the past. You are getting more than just a $300 shoe your getting a $300 moment.
+Andrew Ortiz And what makes what you say more valid if he has the money he can purchase the shoes simple don't hate . You country bumkin broke boi go get some money
My friend spent $200 on a pair of Turbo Green Jordan 1s and just resold them the other day for $700. It's a passion and a market just like anything else you don't need to be interested in it yourself but at the very least you should respect the industry and the success of people in it.
+Chuck Horris I did in fact look it up and found no correlation specifically between wealth and sneakers. I did find a race correlation, but one cannot assume that because blacks on average earn less that all of them buy sneakers uniformally. The sneaker trend seems to affect upper middle class blacks, with regular 100$ range sneakers being popular with everyone else.
PvMVertigo Have you ever been to a public school? I have, and I can verify the statement. Actually I've been to about 5 public schools, and notice the same thing, everywhere.
Man, the sneakerhead community keeps on growing and growing. I just dislike how some resellers, I emphazise SOME dont value the sneakers that theyre buying. It bothers me a lil but then I realize the amount of people that do value their sneakers
HI. THANK YOU FOR UR HARD WORK! I WANT TO GET INTO THIS BUT I USUALLY ONLY BUY WHEN THE SHOES ARE (ON SALE).. BUT I SEE MANY GUYS PAY FULL STICKER PRICE OR EVEN $50 MORE!... EXAMPLE: MSRP IS 250. A GUY PAYS 300 FOR THE PAIR & SELLS THEM FOR "600" SUPPOSEDLY!.. WHAT I DONT GET IS... (WHO) THE HECK PAYS 600 FOR A PAIR IF SHOES WITH A STICKER PRICE OF $250?... (HOW) DO THE SHOES GO UP IN VALUE? SOME GUYS CLAIM THEY PAID 300 FOR 80 PAIRS OF JORDANS WITH STICKER PRICE OF 250 (SO $50 OVER MSRP)... THEN THEY CLAIM THAT THEY SOLD ALL 80 PAIRS FOR IN 2 DAYS FOR $600 EACH SO 300 PROFIT x 80 pairs = $24,000 PROFIT SUPPOSEDLY... FOR ONE, (WHO) BUYS THOSE SHOES FOR 600? (350 OVER MSRP) EACH? MAYBE SOMEBODY WHO LIVES IN AN AREA WHERE THOSE SPECIFIC SHOES ARE NOT AVAILABLE AKA "RARE"? SEEMS LIKE ALL THE PROFIT TO BE MADE WOULD BE GONE AT THAT POINT K NO? AM I MISSING SOMETHING HERE? THANX ANYBODY KNOWLEDGABLE PLEASE REPLY SOON
All I see is mass produced plastic... The value is manufactured from cleverly engineered marketing and faux/scripted "exclusivity". Its fun to see people buy into the hype so deeply.
benefits include free annual physicals, uniforms and clothing, a clinic and health service, a canteen stocked with food, recreation and entertainment, and transportation with there paycheck as well
Evo Fume First of all dumbass, what does that have to do with white people being blamed for people being poor? I can assume you're racist since you went the extra mile to say "negro bully" instead of black. Second of all no, I have never seen a white kid being bullied over not wearing a name brand shoe, though I have seen blacks roast each other for that same thing and hispanic kids too, I live in the Bronx where it's mostly blacks and hispanics but there are some white people too, Though it has never been something where it was literally serious, just fucking around and and joking. In school it's not uncommon for people to have a roasting session or anything, people don't take that shit to heart because their doing it for satire. I don't know where you're pulling that shit out of your ass but you should stop.

what are the jordan 6s called at 2:49 ?
Connor M the white infrareds? 😂
its no more culture smh
i agree
yusef21595 you gotta be dumb to say that
@@flicksh0t822 there is practically no culture, its either hype shoe or not hype shoe
this video is inspiring😂
i've never seen so many broke people look so rich!!! All that matters is looking fly for the present moment, but the future looks grim.
omarseedless they can sell the shoe in the future doe
My friend spent $200 on a pair of Turbo Green Jordan 1s and just resold them the other day for $700. It's a passion and a market just like anything else you don't need to be interested in it yourself but at the very least you should respect the industry and the success of people in it.
yo what is the name of the instrumental/ background music from 2:30-3:37?
ive worn through 2 pairs of pirate black yeezy 350 haha .buy them to wear them
Oh boy!!!! This is heaven! Jordan or Adidas?
Shoes i can kinda understand cause some are comfortable... But spending over $200 for a belt... Smh
preach
If you can afford to buy a $200 belt in the first place, that means $200 is nothing to you.
+Rsty1995 No some stupid people still spend a lot of money on hats and belts and shit like that.
Lol every dread head at my school has a fake LV belt
Ikr
Anyone know the name of the shoe at 1:18 ?
JerseyGold4Fun Jordan 4 Breds
Prime Suspect Wow thank you so much!
lives below poverty line; Owns thousand dollar shoes - Logic at it's finest.
Those kids looked middle class to me, where do you figure they're living in poverty from?
It's been shown most people who buy the latest shoes are below the poverty line. Look it up.
+Chuck Horris I did in fact look it up and found no correlation specifically between wealth and sneakers. I did find a race correlation, but one cannot assume that because blacks on average earn less that all of them buy sneakers uniformally. The sneaker trend seems to affect upper middle class blacks, with regular 100$ range sneakers being popular with everyone else.
PvMVertigo Have you ever been to a public school? I have, and I can verify the statement. Actually I've been to about 5 public schools, and notice the same thing, everywhere.
Don't worry only rich white kids and working people actually pay resale and by lives before poverty line , is that meaning race ??
Man, the sneakerhead community keeps on growing and growing. I just dislike how some resellers, I emphazise SOME dont value the sneakers that theyre buying. It bothers me a lil but then I realize the amount of people that do value their sneakers
I get mine at Walmart for thirty bucks. Probably made by the same company in China.
HI.
THANK YOU FOR UR HARD WORK!
I WANT TO GET INTO THIS BUT I USUALLY ONLY BUY WHEN THE SHOES ARE (ON SALE)..
BUT I SEE MANY GUYS PAY FULL STICKER PRICE OR EVEN $50 MORE!...
EXAMPLE: MSRP IS 250.
A GUY PAYS 300 FOR THE PAIR & SELLS THEM FOR "600" SUPPOSEDLY!..
WHAT I DONT GET IS...
(WHO) THE HECK PAYS 600 FOR A PAIR IF SHOES WITH A STICKER PRICE OF $250?...
(HOW) DO THE SHOES GO UP IN VALUE?
SOME GUYS CLAIM THEY PAID 300 FOR 80 PAIRS OF JORDANS WITH STICKER PRICE OF 250
(SO $50 OVER MSRP)...
THEN THEY CLAIM THAT THEY SOLD ALL 80 PAIRS FOR IN 2 DAYS FOR $600 EACH SO 300 PROFIT x 80 pairs
= $24,000 PROFIT SUPPOSEDLY...
FOR ONE, (WHO) BUYS THOSE SHOES FOR 600?
(350 OVER MSRP) EACH?
MAYBE SOMEBODY WHO LIVES IN AN AREA WHERE THOSE SPECIFIC SHOES ARE NOT AVAILABLE AKA "RARE"?
SEEMS LIKE ALL THE PROFIT TO BE MADE WOULD BE GONE AT THAT POINT K NO?
AM I MISSING SOMETHING HERE?
THANX
ANYBODY KNOWLEDGABLE PLEASE REPLY SOON

+The True Endless Waltz that ain't cheap, that's smart.
4:40 - 4:45 whats the name of this song ?
can anybody tell me ?
All I see is mass produced plastic... The value is manufactured from cleverly engineered marketing and faux/scripted "exclusivity". Its fun to see people buy into the hype so deeply.
Well this hype has been going for 30 years strong.
LanceCampeau it's about design bro and coloways don't be so ignant
Young Pavblo lol still doesn't justify such a heavy price tag. You're just another sheep who buys into this b.s. I used to as well
economics bro the world runs on it search up supply and demand lmao
Young Pavblo it would be nice to see these people line up for school or trade that’s where the money is.
Andre Johnson (from Blackish) would love to tour stores like the shoe stores in this video
I like how they forgot the best part. How the shoes are made. Sweat shop
I have plenty of old shoes could I do this?
Fuck that i'll stay with me vans
J Cam not when they're 60-70$ 😂🤧
What are those 4s called in 1:18 ?
Moi 1k bred 4s
lol at all these resellers stuck with these collections they cant sell, feel good about their wealth on paper lol
Now Jordan sales in resales are declining now since retail prices when up thanks Nike some times them resellers prices be ridiculous
anthony passley right I got breds from a friend for 170 and on flight club they retail for 350
And it costs like 5 dollars to make. smh... maybe even less
$16
benefits include free annual physicals, uniforms and clothing, a clinic and health service, a canteen stocked with food, recreation and entertainment, and transportation with there paycheck as well
***** no to the people who work at the sweatshops nike has improved there sweatshops
ehh depends. yeezys are like 70 at the least to make
just like many things made in China?
I'm choosing between Jordan retro and boostnology, which one is better?
> buys $800+ shoes
> blames white people for being poor
Lol what??? I've never heard anyone say white people are to blame for a certain group of people being poor.
Evo Fume First of all dumbass, what does that have to do with white people being blamed for people being poor? I can assume you're racist since you went the extra mile to say "negro bully" instead of black.
Second of all no, I have never seen a white kid being bullied over not wearing a name brand shoe, though I have seen blacks roast each other for that same thing and hispanic kids too, I live in the Bronx where it's mostly blacks and hispanics but there are some white people too, Though it has never been something where it was literally serious, just fucking around and and joking. In school it's not uncommon for people to have a roasting session or anything, people don't take that shit to heart because their doing it for satire.
I don't know where you're pulling that shit out of your ass but you should stop.
Those people aren't poor though, why do you think that?
+Donquixote Doflamingo Wow you live in N.Y. and haven't heard that? That's some crazy shit right there.
Take a L your comment is irrelevant
Anyone know the beat starting at 04:21 ?
lol I respect the hustle of reselling but y'all need to get a real job......
I've seen how some resellers live, its pretty lavish. You'd have to be mad to do a 9-5 in this day and age.
some of these resellers make more money then you do with your "real job"
🇭🇹HAITI is watching now ❤ Sneakers
