🗣️🗣️🗣️ MESSAGE ‼️‼️‼️

basketball shoes with jeans on and gym shorts underneath in case it had to go down before/after school 😂

Just got my Made by me Freddy Kruegers delivered yesterday.

JA 3 “Spooky Season” 🔥🔥🔥🔥

I think that the irony is that whoever at Nike that designed these DEFINITELY had aspirations of them crossing over into a ‘lifestyle’ sneaker as well… they have way too much personality for just the court.

The kids are dumb..

My son wears his and I have some

Them Barkleys in the back bring me back to middle school days man 🥲 I grabbed the blue pair many moons ago but i might have wore em MAYBE twice before the soles started crumbling on me

This how I know we from the same age group, being yourself was the only thing that was respected

People too afraid to do what they want to do. Worried about the opinions of somebody who doesn't buy their shit lol

As a hat head, I NEED to know. WHERE DID YOU GET THAT HAT!? 🔥🔥🔥 @Professorskoola DM me.

It’s a vintage logo 7 joint, been having it for years now lol

Trends start from somewhere. Be a leader and do your own thing.

That was a big part of sneaker culture and made it what it is today!! We wear basketball/football/running and even tennis sneakers with street clothes. These young kids are lost!! Wait until they find out Filas & Reebok was dope in 90s lol. Grant Hills, Stackhouse, Ai, Shaq🔥

Your son is right. Most basketball shoes should never touch concrete.

This is not a sneaker head thing. I’m older too and you won’t catch me wearing these off court because it’s a hooper thing. If you don’t know or don’t get it so be it. I’m 35+ and I agree 100% these shouldn’t be worn off court. And please don’t use Primes shoe as example lmao

Do they not realize most of those sneakers are"lifestyle" and aren't even made to be worn on the court any more. You'll break an ankle wearing forces on the court these days 😅 I'd love to see them hoop in a pair of Converse 😂

People are afraid to be original, different eras, we grew up with a different mindset now if you not following trends you not cool 😆

@JesusChryce Moral of the story? If you live for people’s acceptance, you’ll die from their rejection.

There ain’t no rules!! Rock them how you want. Don’t let anyone dictate your style but yourself. Be your own, stand on your own.

I feel you but a lot of the shoes being made today don’t do well off court. That’s why they don’t sell as well as retro Js. They just don’t look good with jeans. And they’re being made for on court performance and you can tell that’s what they’re prioritizing with these designs

Young niggas are stoopid

Man my son said the same thing in 6th grade only wears them in games talking about the grip. I say boy I ain’t got it for u only to wear a $100 shoe a few times

Rocking my ja’s with jeans and Nike sweats. As a native of Memphis and a Grizzlie fan, always rock my Ja’s in game day

Kids dress homeless nowadays they don’t even put on clothes 😆😆😆😆

If I had a pair of Ja’s I’m definitely wearing them off the court!! I don’t hoop anyway lmaooo tf yea these kids n the culture are brain rot OG!! They don’t know what’s really good out here!!! They all just follow the last idiot that said it or did it n that is terrible!!

Will you please tell Em bro???

Jordan's are better fashion shoes then a ball shoe

The Youth Are COOKED!!!

That’s how you know social media has had a negative impact on everything

I had this same conversation with my 13 year old nephew. It’s corny. Put them mf shoes on if they clean.

You’re looking at is as more of peer rule thing when I think it’s more about todays aesthetic in general. Basketball shoes are more likely to be clunky and bulky. They have long been replaced with more casual sneakers that complement the aesthetic that’s on top

Those 🔥🔥🔥🔥

They can’t set trends worrying about what ppl say. That’s the way to style rocking stuff differently than others

Man I hooped in these jawns in middle school in 1994 talk about take me back memories🫡🫡 I had the black socks to match too damnnnnn

Nah his son is kinda right. These shoes now aren’t really good to wear with a fit. Jeans don’t lay right on them and with shorts they be looking long and awkward.
