The Sneaker Industry is a BIG LIE (our confession) 

"The new Retail is Resale," says the owners of a resale store.

7:15-7:18 Richie’s laugh is so genuine 😂

I’d love for yall to longer episodes like this as a podcast .. been needing some sneaker pods for my drive to and from work

This was a great video I always like the HypeTalk videos. Y’all be killing it🔥.

We need more this type of conversation.

So happy I went to sneakercon and I met Johnny and got a picture with you man been watching yall since I was in highschool!! Yall got me into my whole sense of style to this day 🤙🏽

7:15 Richie’s laugh had me dead 😂

Richie vans are classic 🔥🔥🔥

Opportunity to establish your shop's name by doing things the right way. Keep Crushing fellas!

OG fans remember these stories!🙌🏾🙏🏽 Also Tan with the fake pink jordan 8s he bought🤣

🔥🔥 HYPETALK!

I’m just so happy I can actually buy shoes now lol. Even if it’s $20-$30 over retail with fees and shipping. I got those craft 3’s for under retail even with shipping and fees on stock x. They were still in stock on the Nike app and they were like $12 more with shipping and tax.

It not just the sneaker industry it’s the whole world people been scamming for decades we don’t live in a good and jolly world just gotta stay humble and stay true to yourself. If u get scammed then take the L and learn from ur experience and if ur doing to the scamming hope u find some sympathy and change ur ways.

😂😂😂😂😂 I love the hype talk crew like their sense of humor

Clear weather is tuff... Looking forward to the flip flops

MEDFORD MENTIONED!!! 🗣🗣🔥🔥🦅🦅🦅🦅

I live in Medford that's crazy lol. My boy sunset sneakers live here too. Definitely pays to be a sneakerhead in Oregon

I felt what richie said at 6:47 "I am going to go to the brand that wants me" Period! Haha but really its this mentality that has made me look at brands like New Balance, Asics, and Saucony. On that same note New Balance just shared its revenue and they are growing because like richie said customers are getting sick of not feeling wanted by nike and Jordan.

I got the same wompas and wear them religiously in this Bay Area rain 👌🏾✊🏾

GOAT as per usual 💯💯

Is that Tan in the thumbnail???😂

Richie with the Menace 2 Society quote 🔥 MC Eiht 💪🏽

Johnny just laughs about it … “I feel bad” … “ I did what I had to do” keep the same energy lmao

"The new Retail is Resale," is 100% true esspecially if you live in Poland xD Now Aj1 cost the same of amount as 3 years ago on resele price xD

I’ve heard the altitude 13s story about 13 times. Ain’t heard the mnml story not once.

damn the amount of money some of these scammers made is crazy, $85 milli??!

Johnny is a G

W Video!

Yoooo

The whole basketball team is crazyyyy! lmfaoooo

nah reimagined 4 were an easy cop if you tried, maybe living in at metro area helps but all things considered there were so many ways to cop, if you wait for the SNKRS drop and only that drop I understand why it seems so hard. All things considered gr gel kayano are harder to get. Actually where’s Brandon I bet you he has a couple pairs of 4s lol

sneaker game has definitely changed over the years, use to be all fun and games now theres full on crime rings

What happened to house of hype?

sneaky little 🐈🍽️ I bet you would nickel and dime your way to more sales

im from medford

Not the conqs rockin fakes 🤣

Team Johnny!

0:35 🤔

“I’m all for the people” ~continues to defend random retailers that defrauded the people~

damn can't see the jolly big fella johnny scamming people... sneaker game is cutthroat fr 😥

*Who here went for the Supreme Air Maxes this morning? What a joke*

wompa loopa

Johnny only he wearing air max 1s😭😭

richie will confess to this but wont confess what happened with mnml...

if you were able to convince a whole ass basketball team to buy your fakes, them shits real lol

i thought reselling was dead

I'm sure 99% of the people who are into sneakers have gotten got before. It's funny hearing yall talk about highschool stories. I remember in the mid 2000s, people didn't care as much about rocking fakes, they would just say they're 'customs'. Fakes were more acceptable or people just didn't know back then. In my city, there were a bunch small shops where they'd have all different colors of AF1s, & it would be 2 for $100. We also had this guy called the "DookieMan" (we called AF1s, Dookies where I'm from lol), everyone had his business card. All you had to do was call his number & he'll deliver you AF1s, which I'm sure were fakes. It wasn't until the later 2000s where I started being able to tell the differences from fakes & realizing a lot of people were rocking them.

i love u richie

They always gas Johnny for not dressing like them(the masses). They dress like posers Richie is wearing duck camo casually like he could handle a rifle hahaha

Dang it almost first! 2nd!

“Resale” shops stock 3 things. Jordan’s. Dunks. And Yeezy. I stopped trying to go to those places to “buy, sell or trade” anything besides those three (which I don’t collect). Resale is Retail, and it’s dying a slow death. The pandemic made everyone want dunks and Jordan 1’s, now all the places that have tried to capitalize on that in the years since have all become the exact same thing. Remember MentalKicks? Ya, places like that were the original “reseller” sites for me, and I feel it will start going back to more individualized sites and stores for the brands and silhouettes that have been “forgotten” by this whole model. And if not? I’m cool rocking with the brands and pairs that I’ve always wanted and found more easily. Great discussion as always guys 🫡

dont care if johnny a scammer, i will still support him lol

Scamenomics 101

They talk about the problem, and they are literally the problem 😂

me personally i don’t buy resell especially shoes . rather buy fakes then pay some random guy or shop who sucks then help out some underpaid chinese workers than guy who just use bots to get all the sneakers and call it “hard work” i have real sneakers and they been sitting there for years and i only have 1 fake yeezy which i hardly wear .

Trophy Rooms are lame.

I couldnt believe I hit on breds took 5min then said I got it been years sense I hit on snkrs

Richie Le got vans on?? 😂 😂 kidding but those joints look like str8 up $45 vans

Bro sold the whole entire team fakes??😂😂😂 it's one thing to sell 1 person some fakes but the whole entire team?😂😂😂😂😂 this the funniest thing I ever heard in my life bro

LMAO. Y'all taking shots at other companies that do the exact thing y'all do... and at the end say: BUT WE ARE DIFFERENT. LOL. The fall for RLC has started...

Them fake vans are worse then the clearweathers I must say! Just wear real vans! That’s like wearing air kiys bootleg 1s 🤷🏽

Johnny outfits wack

Yo y’all can’t be talking over each other the whole time if you’re gona keep doing these

AYE @johnny! @Tan got me with that too, he gave me $25 and i was giving him a deal for $50.

I think that if you put in footwork you can cop shoes for retail which is why I tap in with streamers like the boy @raffycollects

appreciate you guys keeping it real. Life lessons, mad respect @sb_jedi
