i was new to shoes back then. did not know much about anything at all, not even the most classic AJ1s

i went to a nike employee store and i saw this pair of Ben and Jerry Dunks on the “last size” shelf. i wondered to myself, who on earth would buy these cow shoes and i laughed at them with my friends.

6 months later after i had amassed some sneaker knowledge, i came across a vid showing the exact same pair of shoes that apparently were worth like 4 bands on the resale market. imagine my pain. I COULD HAVE GOTTEN THEM FOR A DISCOUNT.

    I was completely broke, in-between jobs, and late on rent. I’m sure you know where this is going. I had to sell my DOOMs (still in a depression about this) and both of my Off-White Blazers to pay rent.

    I mean, it’s not necessarily a “regret” as it was sell them or possibly get evicted, but it’s something that I hate that I had to do.

      You made the right choice. There are absolutely people who would have kept their sneakers and made themselves a burden to parents, friends, or significant others when they had to move in, but you were responsible. Good job my guy.
