Your first point is exactly the reason why I'm doing it.
I'm not abusing anything.
Motherfuckers lurk, contribute nothing, then turn up on release day bright and early with their reseller chairs and flasks wearing some shit old pair of beaters, buy the release then stick it straight on Ebay, so, frankly, bollocks to your selfish!
No trouble getting a pair?
On that part you are absolutely right.
As a long serving moderator of this forum Adidas and all the collaborating shops past and present reserve a pair of everything just in case I want it and I get a very favourable 65% off. Result!
Wait, no, that was a dream.
If I can scrape up the money I'll be queueing like every other nutter on the day of release.
With all those silly cunting Bape numpties!
(I'll take my ban hammer with me, for real!)
"Basically, I'm a reseller!"

my misses bought me a pair of lto's as a present
the grey and blue pair to be honest they were only 20 notes i dont hate them but the shell does look like an elbow or a nut sack stretched over a shell toe
worst thing about them was the weird lacing thing you normally get on coats (which i dumped straight away)
didnt know they were hated until i came on here lol

Most of us have no idea what you're talking about, Pencil.
Very, very few of the members on here would buy the shoes in question and then sell them, regardless of what the money was spent on.
That makes you a fucking reseller, so you've seriously misjudged your audience with that point.
As for not wearing them, again, wrong!
There have only been a couple of twats come through here that don't wear their trainers, no matter how rare.
What's the fucking point?
You work hard and sweat your balls off to get the money to buy the trainers so why the fuck leave in the cabinet to rot?
Apart from anything, you're stopping someone else from owning and wearing them!
RE: Soon come Superstars. -

Agreed. I want them badly, but to wear. I admit I'll not be wearing them to the beach or playing cootie in them but they be worn!

But you will sell them S.. eventually

I'm not that bad.
I only sell ones I've had enough off.
Still got DMCs, underworld, reps, etc

Completely agreed: wear them shoes kids. I wear even my rarest or most favorite pairs all the time, and I try to keep the lushest out of harsh weather etc, but when it happens it happens, and you pick up your tooth brush and you make things right. If you're that worried about it then you double up. 'nuff said!

My tuppence worth..
I pretty much wear the small amount I have, the ones I don't wear (mainly cos I don't like them as much) I end up giving to friends who are fucking grateful for what they get. I love superstars (an embarrassing thing to admit sometimes as I try not to be too into 'things') and that means wearing them until they squeak. Most of all I like the way they have refused to die, a bit like vinyl really. And no matter how much Adidas try to revinvent the wheel, they pretty much end up giving us what us we want, simple and beautiful.
