totally agree, but you and I are probably some of the only people that cared so much about shoes, but were still excited to find a pair of $20 Sauconys on clearance, and if someone knew that shoe, it made for a good conversation

Yep, huge missed opportunity.

other than the conversations we’ve had since then, right? 🫶 lol

I do miss before then a lot, but like most things in that time, I think it was bound to burst

it’s crazy to think about how much conversation we started back then just coming up with ridiculous ways to create a list

not saying resale is a good thing, it just became a litmus test that brands could learn from, Nike partnered with us at StockX to launch the first AZG retro, we never did anything with UA, even when Steph did charities with us, UA was never around
I hope he finds some success wherever is next

I’d love to hear more. Shoot me an email. Nick @ Sneaker History dot com

Nearly impossible to manufacture imo, and I will acknowledge, even harder to sell Curry’s nice guy vibe.

Still, he changed the game, won titles, MVPs, and they still barely moved the needle.

I wonder if they go away from the existing logos/tech and start completely fresh with another brand. I think kids like that they’re wearing Curry’s shoes more than any of the things we typically think about

That would be interesting

Great reference.

Thank you!

Thank you!

Yep, completely missed opportunity

Not exactly but if I do, I’ll let you know!

You would think that’s common knowledge at this point but here we are
