- [Alex] I brought.
- I couldn't even imagine spending (beep)
on a pair of shoes.
- Oh my God. - Ahh.
- So these are. - What.
(intense music)
- I would move you all the way to the front though.
- That's very sweet of you.
- That's my favorite outfit.
Your outfit looks most expensive compared to everyone
just off the bat.
- Dog this (censored) was $30 thrift, $12 thrift.
- Yeah, people who wear Vapes though
always have hella money.
- All right so you gotta go to the front.
Move, move it down, move it down.
- I'ma come over here
and then gradually sift back through.
- I like hers, I feel like she's definitely top three.
- Yeah she's well put.
The great thing, she's well put.
- I honestly would put her one if not two.
- Okay.
- Yeah you looking fashion.
- Yeah, go head. - Right here.
- You got the black Phantoms on.
Those just came out.
- That is true.
Those did just come out.
- And so if you're wearing them
then they're probably not your most expensive.
- [Jason] You, you can go in front of me.
- Go three right now.
- Yeah you can go three, go three.
- I feel like the denim tiers.
- Those are like $400 pants.
Those are $400 pants.
- He has to be further up. - Caught me.
- Right behind Lexxi. - Yeah.
- Okay, okay, I like that.
- I think this is a good ranking.
- You think so?
- Judging right now. - I would put myself ahead.
- Go head.
Go head bro.
- Please, by all means. - Please, please.
- Why don't you go a little bit more ahead, yeah.
- Yeah no, I would keep Dylan here.
I'd keep Dylan here.
- Yeah okay yeah.
- Because we can't go off of other information though right?
We're going off just aesthetics, cause aesthetically,
you're real low key right now.
- Everything on my body's free.
(group laughs)
- It's like (explosion).
- I feel like maybe Dylan should be right here.
- If you think so.
- Okay. - Okay.
- Carhartt pants.
- [Producer] Wait why did you move Dylan up?
- Because he has a watch on and watches are expensive so.
- I would move him right here.
- So you last. - Okay.
- Yeah, that's cool.
- What do we think about this?
- I think in terms of looks and what we can see,
I think this is very valid.
It's fair.
- Word.
- [Jason] It's super important to keep in touch
with the roots of where things come from.
You know, for example, the Air Force One.
It got popular because kids in the hood,
it was known for a long time
as actually like a cheap sneaker.
And so they were putting them in bargain bins
for like 20 bucks for a pair.
It's not just what the thing is in this moment.
It's everything that's around it.
- So what do you guys think feel about reselling?
- I think, you know, you could make a lot of money from it.
- Reselling community helps out a lot if done the right way.
But there's a lot of, I know negativity, you know,
with the bots and everything like that.
- So, I mean, I like bots.
I actually, I developed my own bot so I,
I've been in the scene on the bot side for a while now.
- Then you should be in the front then.
- Nah I mean. (group laughs)
- So basically a bot lets you input different credit cards.
You run it on certain sites so each site is different.
Different bots do different things.
They don't always work every drop.
It's not as easy as it seems, and it's a big investment.
- Definitely in the front then.
- Yeah all right, consider it got.
- Yeah, let's put you in the front.
- [Jason] Exactly.
- I mean I sell a lot of my shoes too.
- That doesn't matter, you have access to really limited.
- Yeah you have access to lots of pairs.
- Hard for regular people like me,
I don't buy, I buy everything retail.
So I will enter so many raffles
like around like 20 each drop.
And I get L's on every single one because people like you.
- Bots ruin the sneaker community,
but I understand they need to make their hustle
and make the money.
- These botters, they're getting all the pairs that,
that are in my size, which is kind of frustrating.
- Head of the line man.
Head the line.
- Just say I don't necessarily agree with this.
- I mean to me.
- That's not biggest sneakerhead that's well.
- But he still has access.
- If he's keeping them.
- Well he said he's selling them.
So assuming he's selling them, he's gonna make a lot.
- But he selling them as a sneakerhead.
- Like the UNC Fours?
I think I got like 40 pairs of those.
- That's why I didn't get a pair.
- Few of them were for other people
and I, I didn't keep any of 'em.
- So you probably made like,
let's just say average maybe three, four grand
on a pair of UNC fours, right?
- Yeah but.
- Realistically you have a lot of money.
You might be splurging out on shoes for all we know.
- But not necessarily.
I might be making on botting but I don't necessarily
spend it back on shoes.
- We'll keep you there right now bro.
- [Abdel] Okay.
- [Producer] Does anyone have any ill feelings towards bots?
- As a female in the community, I'm sure you can relate,
smaller sizes have lesser quantity,
so it's already very difficult for us to get it.
And usually resale value on smaller sizes are higher.
So people like him be taking all the quantity from us,
the people who actually generally would wear the sneakers
and not to just make money.
- Would we put someone that's taking quantity away
from the actual people, true collectors?
Like would we value him as at the one spot?
- I think that's invalid what you just said,
because I'm a true collector too.
- No, no, no not like that.
I'm saying.
- No but I'm saying, you're not necessarily
taking away from collectors,
because if a collector really wants something,
they'll just pay for it.
It's not cool if it's not expensive.
- I disagree with that though.
- I - - Sometimes, sometimes.
- Because like some of the best joints
are not the most expensive ones.
It's, it's what it means to you honestly.
Cause for me, I'm probably the oldest dude here.
I was in the first Supreme Warehouse sale in '05.
- Okay. - So we lined up in SoHo,
I got a pair of SB Delta Forces.
No hype around that joint.
They're probably not even listed on Stock X right now.
But I love that pair cause of what it means to me.
- Right? - You know?
So I feel like that for me is what a sneakerhead is.
- I kinda wanna move him, cause he said he's an OG
and a lot of older shoes nowadays are worth a lot more
because market skyrockets. - Worth a lot less.
- No, you said you were at Supreme though,
so assuming you like that Supreme stuff,
I know a lot of that older Supreme goodies
are like worth ten times as much as they are back then so.
I feel like you got a bunch of old heat
that's now worth a bunch of money.
- I'll be real, I don't even know the prices
on some stuff right now cause I just got it.
I got it cause this (censored), this (censored) looks fire,
so I have no idea, but I'll stand here for now.
- How do y'all feel about UAs?
- I mean I think they're fine.
I don't really care.
- Yeah, me personally, I don't really care about reps.
Like I get it.
The shoe, the shoe game is crazy now.
Like your average Joe is not spending $700
on a pair of shoes, fine by me.
Right, cool.
Realistically though, if you buy a rep,
just don't sell it as real.
Don't try, don't try and make a business off.
- Cause that's scammy.
- [Jason] Yeah cause I'll be real.
I, there's some pairs back there that are reps.
- Mmm. - That I brought.
- Out of your like collection, how many of of them are reps?
- There you go.
- Say probably about 20%, so I'm happy to slide.
- Only cause you said you had reps, so for all we know.
- Oh I definitely got reps.
- [Producer] Can you guys discuss how you got
into the sneakerhead community?
- Yeah, okay.
- My dad's a big sneakerhead so all he put me in was Jordans
and I didn't like it
cause it was more of like a guy thing back then.
So I thought like everyone's gonna think
I'm wearing guy shoes.
But then I bought my first pair in like 2015
and then I was like, everyone complimented me
and I was like, I like this.
- So I'm a rapper, right?
I'm an artist and for me it was really through hip hop.
It was, yeah it was all for the culture.
Like going to the warehouse sales.
- [Dylan] That's why I'm thinking you need to be up here.
- Okay.
- But I personally think I need to be down a little bit.
- We'll, we'll keep you at number three.
- I would say three. - Yeah, number three.
- Yeah you feel good about that?
- Yeah.
- I went to I went to go to Nike with my grandmother
and I finally got the Weatherman Foamposites.
That was the first ever shoe I got.
I remember vividly, 274 bucks.
And that was so much money to me cause I was a third grader.
I shouldn't, I shouldn't get a shoe like that.
I still, I still buy a lot.
I have like around 50 pairs right now.
But I do like to wear, you know, boots more than anything.
- You have great style,
so I think you should be like right here actually,
in front of me. - Okay.
- My first shoe when I got onto the basketball team
was a pair a Derrick Roses.
And then basically I started growing my knowledge.
I started like obsessing over just having the better kicks
because I didn't have any Jordans
and I didn't like have the money for it.
And eventually I just slowly started getting my way up.
- How long have you been flipping shoes though?
- Since 20, since 2015.
- And you still do it to this day?
- Yeah, a little bit.
- [Natalie] Let's move him up.
- Yeah so I think that means you gotta be over here.
- I think like maybe in the middle or like third.
- Okay.
- Okay but Dylan,
how many pairs do you have in your collection?
- Um, in my collection.
- Okay wait not even collection, inventory.
- Inventory yeah.
- How do you know that I got inventory though?
- The way you move bro.
(Natalie laughs)
- Wait. - Yeah um.
Like over a thousand.
- [Alex] I'd definitely put you ahead of me for sure.
- All right.
- And then what about you?
- I've got like 150 pairs probably right now.
- I have about 600 so.
- I'm at like, probably.
- I'm happy, I'm happy to be over here.
I'm happy to be with the, the peasants.
- Yeah, I would say you're up a little bit for now.
- Three? - For now it's up one.
- I'm, yeah, that, that sounds right.
- I'd say outta the 50 pairs I have,
there's like 30 pairs that like sit on ice
cause there's some shoes that I view as like,
it's like real estate, you know?
Shoes go up and down.
I view them more so as like an asset.
Personally don't wear like most of 'em.
- I like to wear all my shoes.
- I wear, I wear all my shoes too.
But there are certain shoes that I wouldn't wear,
like if I were to ever obtain them,
like the Paris Dunks or the Nike Mags.
Those are like art pieces.
Those are. - Whoa whoa.
You say you have the Mags?
- No, no, no.
- Oh, okay, okay.
I was like move. - I would've won our,
I got that's, that's one of my grail sneakers.
- There's art pieces and then there's just,
you know, wear and tear all day stuff.
- A hundred percent.
- What are your everyday shoes?
For me, I wear like slides or Crocs.
- Yeezy slides.
- Now the Salehe Crocs are the best everyday shoe.
Those wear so good.
- Right okay yeah.
- I been wearing those all year.
- Mainly when I go out I wear a lot,
I'm like a big Rick Owens guy.
So I wear like, these aren't Rick Owens, but these are,
it's similar but I have, you know, platform boots.
I have a couple Rick Owen pairs.
I have like about four.
- I think we should move you a little bit up.
- Rick Owens.
Yeah, they're, they kind of up there.
- Yeah. - Definitely.
- My beaters are Jordan Ones and Jordan Threes.
- My everyday beaters are the Off-White University Dunks.
I do beat those.
I didn't wanna wear 'em at first, but then I was like,
let's just do it. (group laughing)
- Good one to beat.
- I don't beat them but I wear them a lot.
- Well like if we're looking at like
who has the most expensive,
I'll put her ahead of me just for beaters, right like?
- Yes. - I'll put you ahead of me.
- My beaters are Off-White Pine Dunks.
- You're with me.
- I'll put myself here.
- Okay we're trying to find the person who like.
- In, in my opinion, you should be up a little bit.
I'm fine with staying down here.
- We can go up one.
- Okay yeah I can be right here.
- I feel like the SBs.
SB highs or SB lows or you got both?
- Both but like majority SB lows.
- Majority are lows.
- I feel like I should be here.
I just have a feeling you're down there.
- I would say my, my biggest beater is Off-White Euro.
- Oh, you got the whites?
- But he could've got them for retail though.
Wait wait wait.
- No I did not get em for retail.
- Even if he didn't get them for retail.
- But he could've got them in the beginning stages.
- But the value on that alone.
- Toss him up there. - Okay okay how bout
we'll put you right here.
- No right here, second.
- Yeah.
- Or you, you even go first.
Yeah, go first yeah.
That's a 6,000, 5-6,000 dollar pair.
So when he said it was a a beater, I was just like,
yeah, you're going to the front.
(upbeat music)
- [Producer] Seventh, Abdel.
Sixth, Natalie. - Ohh okay.
- Yeah we got this.
- [Producer] Fifth, Lexxi.
- Hot damn. - Oooh.
- Aight, aight.
- [Producer] Fourth, Alex.
- Okay. - Aight we got two wrong.
- That's okay.
- [Abdel] I was I was telling you he's up there.
- Sleeper, Jason.
- [Producer] Third, Dylan.
- Okay. - I knew it.
- What? - My god.
- I told you bro. - What'd you bring?
- Second, Jason C.
- Oh dang. - Okay.
- I told you I was right.
- This man here.
- Wait. (laughs)
- He said this, "Oh I'm wearing a $5 Nautica sweater."
- This is 5 bucks I swear.
- [Producer] First, Jason H.
- Come on. - Wow.
- I told you.
(hype music)
- So I brought the Travis Sails.
These I bought for $450,
worth around $1200 new I think.
I like lowkey wear these all the time.
So like I don't really keep many of my expensive shoes.
I just can't bring myself
to keep something that I could just sell.
- So I brought the Off-White Fours.
- Ayy. - Classic.
- I saw that coming. - I knew it, I knew it.
- It matches my outfit.
It was two pairs of Off-Whites I had to trade for these.
And these are definitely a grail.
These are Off-White 4 Sails and they, their values $1,300.
- So I actually brought the same.
- Oh.
- Same as him but. - Sizes yeah.
- The sizes are different, so the price is different.
I actually got these for like $300
from my local reseller for brand new.
They're going for about $1400 in my size.
- I brought the original Travis Scott Mocha.
These are brand new at, I believe 22, $2500.
But I got them for a good deal.
I think I got 'em for like around $1400.
- For me, I brought a childhood grail.
- Whoa. - All right.
- You had to bring them out.
- So it was, these were actually very special to me
because I've always wanted these as a kid.
I actually bought them for $900.
That's right. - [Lexxi] Nice.
- The value of these sneakers are now $6,000 brand new.
And you gotta see the bottom.
- [Jason H.] Brand new.
- See the bottom, they're, they're pretty clean
you know what I mean so.
- You wanna trade? - You wanna trade?
- I'll sell em to you right now.
- How much?
- $4000.
- Nah.
- Alright so for me, and there's a long story behind these.
So these are. (group cheers)
- Wait. - What?
- How you second you got the Red Octobers?
- So this one, wait so when these dropped,
I was living in China and I was doing music out there
and I was doing work out there.
And so my best friend, we had a street wear line together.
And so I was like, dude, I need these like,
Nike's gonna surprise drop these,
this shit's gonna be crazy.
So I didn't buy them at Nike,
and I didn't buy them through the Nike drop.
My boy went and he talked to his people
cause he knows the people at the factory.
- Yeah. - Dang.
- And I've worn these, I wear these for Lunar New Year,
you know what I'm saying?
Like I have, so to me this is not only like, you know,
my most valued pair, but I've got so many memories.
- You wanna trade?
Let's trade right now.
On set, hey.
- As you know, I have the most expensive,
I don't think you guys were prepared for this.
Man, I'm gonna pull out a solid gold shoe.
I don't know if you guys know what I have,
but I've been in the game for some time, so.
(group yells)
- Okay yo big ups. - [Alex] That's crazy.
- [Jason H.] Brand new pair. - [Jason C.] That is insane.
- Nike SB Paris Dunk Lows
in a size 10 and a half.
I have owned these for just shy of a year and a half now.
So I paid $81,000 for these last year.
And the current value of these is roughly like
a hundred to 120 grand. - Yeah.
- You know, there's only 202 pairs in the world,
but each shoe, if you look,
each shoe is completely different in terms of the artwork.
So no pair will look identical to one of the 202 out there.
So every pair left and right is technically considered
one of one. - Crazy.
- Yeah, these are, these are very crazy.
I actually own two pairs.
I have a worn one and then this is the brand new.
- But there are certain shoes that I wouldn't wear,
like if I were to ever obtain 'em.
Like the Paris Dunks.
- What do you do for work?
- I sell shoes.
So I sell very high end shoes.
That's what I do full-time.
I used to make nine bucks an hour,
lifting 500 pound couches by myself.
And eventually I saved up my checks
and I got like my first crazy pair of shoes,
which was a pair of Off-White Jordans.
I've always had a passion for them.
I couldn't afford them.
My parents weren't lending me money
to buy the crazy stuff that I always wanted.
So I had to work for it and eventually
that passion turned into a business,
which is now what I do today.
- Can I, can I have this one?
- Yeah, feel free.
Pass 'em down.
- It's like show and tell.
- I'm good dude, I'm not gonna touch those bro.
- [Dylan] Dude, we should all take a photo.
Can you guys take a photo?
Can you take a photo?
- They don't smell like anything.
- I couldn't even imagine spending that much
on a pair of shoes.
- I'm not even gonna hold them.
You can hold 'em.
- That's okay, man.
- Nah bro that's crazy.
I applaud you for buying them.
- Thank you. - Takes courage.
- I applaud you for bringing those here.
- No yeah, bringing 'em.
- [Natalie] You flew with those?
- He brought both.
- I would have.
- These I had in my backpack though,
so I these, I didn't put 'em in my luggage or nothing.
I was walking around like securing them.
I had to make sure everything was good.
