Thanks.

Picked up my first pair of Jordans in 1991 when I was 14. I’ve always had a few pairs since then, but over the last couple of years I went a bit too far.

Ahhh the lance mountains and grey off whites are making me jealous!

Real beauties you have Gave! I ve been collecting Jordans by myself and own some of the heats you ve posted. Unfortunately not all as the reseller prices are too expensive for my likings.
Nice to see you here[emoji41]
Thanks man, your screen name gives you away
Yeh, I had a fantastic lucky streak with releases through the second half of 2019 and most of 2020…..which is now over
I wear most of them, apart from the Off White V’s and a few others with value which my wife is keeping an eye on the value of so she can buy a new kitchen

As a former skater and having the honour of meeting LM when I was a teenager they are one of my favourite pairs.
The Off White’s are my biggest ever score on a Snkrs draw, I’ve got a few other pairs that are worth money but I paid a decent amount for them, the OW were a retail pick up.

Both stories make the kicks cooler!!

Thank you sir, I recently retired from new sneaker releases now that I’m in my mid 40’s, might still go back and revisit the odd old classic though.

Wow I can’t believe this came up on the forum. That’s impressive @Megatron1505. Thanks for bringing this thread back. I felt compelled yesterday to dip my toes in the water finally, and I just bought my very first pair from Landon. I was gonna wait and post fit pics, but since this thread just got refreshed, here they are:
Looking forward to getting indigo stains all over them. Figure they’ll age like a pair of boots too. Gonna wear the shit out of em. Needed something external to take a little pressure off my overwhelming anxiety at the moment. I hope it helps, I’m feeling kinda hyped to be honest. I’ve been wearing work boots everyday for so long, these will be a nice change of pace

Love those @adam313 , wheat 4’s right?
-
Yes sir. The Pinnacle Premium
-
Nice, I remember that Landon was a big Nike guy back in the day.
-
TWO kids got in the way of that real quick!
I’m happy that we wear the same size
Might have to grab another, I heard this type of thing is a slippery slope -
I saw on IG that Landon was now a double daddy, he randomly tagged me in something last week.
This is a definite slippery slope, I’ve recently had to have a word with myself and get off this particular wagon before it reaches the bottom of the slope and I was splurging a couple of grand for OG 85’s

mans got some heat. the last person I'd expect to be a sneaker head. absolutely love him more after watching his videos since he started his channel.

Is that Ben Foster, as in the goalkeeper Ben Foster? ???

Those are sick @adam313 they remind me of the Hender Scheme version.
This entire sub forum makes me vibrate with history. Jordans were my first obsession. I had over 100 pairs, most of them that I kept new and sold off once I "got out of the game". I wore Air Jordan everything for years. Back in the late 90's and early 2000's, the new releases would never make it to the store shelf. they'd be sold out before the store opened. It's part of the reason i got out of the game, they made too many color variations that weren't original just to mass produce and put Jordan's on everyone's feet. There was no exclusivity any longer. This is a personal story that has nothing to do with anyone else's preference, just sharing what happened in my head with shoe collecting over time.
we would stand in line for hours before the store opened at the Mall of America with scores of shady people looking to buy/take your shoes. We got out of there fast as hell.
Then my buddy decided to it was easier to just get a job at the shoe store so we could skip the lines.
I have 1 pair of Jordan's now, and they are my softball cleats. oh how times have changed.

Those Hender Scheme 4’s sell for a fortune these days. Speaking as someone who recently “left the game”, nothing much has changed and you aren’t really missing anything amazing. My brief foray back in resulted in me picking up some OG colours of 1’s, 3’s 4’s 5’a and 6’s, which I’m happy about, but happier to be out again.
