In the past five years, you may have noticed a trend on people's feet: the Nike Roshe Run. I personally have had a couple pairs of those, just because of how light and sturdy they were. This was until I discovered BOOST.
Adidas uses their technology BOOST in most of their shoes today. It literally feels like you're walking on clouds. The price may be high but I certainly believe it's worth it. Funny backstory, apparently Nike was offered this technology first but passed on it. Adidas took it, ran with it, and have dominated the past three or so years in sneakers.
My personal favorites are the Adidas Ultra Boost and Yeezy Boost 350. The picture attached is the Adidas Energy Boost, but you can tell what the ball looks like with the technology. It covers the entire midsole.

What to cop this upcoming weekend
Hey everyone! There's a lot of heat dropping this upcoming weekend because it's the NBA All-Star Weekend. I'm here to guide you towards what to cop, and what to drop.
There are a bunch of collaborations, from OVO x Jordan, BAPE x DAME, and UNDFTD x Kobe. All of those releases will be fairly difficult to get, so I'll point you towards a hyped release that is going to be a general release, meaning it'll be easy to get if you put in the work.
The Air Jordan 3 "Black Cement" is an iconic staple of the Jordan Brand. It'll be releasing this Saturday, February 17, for $200 retail. Unlike my Yeezy Boosts, resell should not be too crazy, since it is barely selling for above retail on StockX and GOAT at this moment.
Your best bet is to enter raffles and of course, the Nike SNKRS app. Make sure to be on it at 7am pacific time to ensure you get your pair! These will for sure sell out.

The Most I've Ever Spent on Shoes
Hyped shoes are what drive the sneaker market. Recently, the Off-White Collection by Nike has been hurting bank accounts, especially if the shoes were attained in the secondary market. Another hyped silhouette is the Adidas 350 v2 Boost, which is in collaboration with Kanye West.
No need to introduce Kanye, as I'm sure everyone's heard of him. He was one of my favorite producers/rappers growing up, so I just had to have these shoes. I struck out on retail and paid double of that in the secondary market.
