2007 shoes? I hope you're not suggesting AF1s were designed in 2007...

Hard to forget they're are one of the most common adidas. I have a pair of Spezials that are similar.

Yes, you do good. Made in Italy Diadora's have amazing quality.

For the most part yes, because our 'grails' are now further out of reach. Some guys are happy and selling off their stuff for these ridiculous prices

>How do you feel about the resurgence of dunks?
Conflicted. I feel like I'm not as negative/salty as some other dunk collectors.

I'm happy that SBs/Dunks are getting the love they deserve, I encourage people to buy what they like and not follow hype, even if hype resurrected SB. So if you like dunks for your own reasons, great. If you like them to be hype or resell, fuck you. No doubt the resurgence is almost entirely because of Travis Scott, surprisingly many 'oldies' will argue about this. Sure I'm upset that my 'grails' are no longer attainable, but that's the market and I feel SBs have been undervalued for years given their lower production numbers (relative to other Nike/Adidas/Retro Jordans), use of materials, pioneered collabs & more flashy colors. I was willing to pay $500-600 for a pair of clean Unkles and was actively looking before the resurgence, now that same condition is double the price, out of the question for me, I'm not one to spend any more than $500 on a single pair. I can only blame myself for not copping more during the 'off years'. Worse so, I actually sold off around 7 Dunks towards the end of 2018 before the boom. For example I sold some lightly worn Pacman highs for $120 (Maple dollars) and they would likely be worth over $600USD in the condition they were in now. I'm not upset about it. Other collectors are cashing out which its a great time to do. 2 guys (one was the Pacman buyer) put together 96 pairs of (mostly used) dunks and sold the lot for $24,000 (again Canadian dollars), can't hate on that.

I'm more upset that somehow Canada doesn't have SNKRS still and getting SBs here is really hard, now there's just more people trying to buy them. It's forced me to cop other sneakers and build better variety in my collection, I know in a year or two kids will move onto the next sneaker wave and dunks will be more attainable.

Pic related the pair I regret selling the most.
