i bet you he couldn't name 10 popular jordan silhouette / colorways. you can't get an opinion like that from a guy that probably doesn't even wear jordans on a regular basis which makes what he is saying irrelevant. ask a true sneakerhead that question for a more pure answer because multiple videos have popped up about the subject and all the men are saying this is way off. this is no hate towards sebastian either as i am a fan of his comedy work.
Guys I am 65 and still wear my Jordans, Nikes, and Yeezys and the way I have taken care of myself, and the way I style my outfits regularly gets “he so fresh” when I am out. I need to start a You Tube channel to show what a guy in his sixty’s means to the sneaker community. Guys never let anyone tell you what you can’t do!
Yea my dad is 69 and still wear his. He is one of the original sneaker addicts. Successful in life. Wear what you want. Let no one tell you what to put on.
I'm 39 and will be wearing sneakers pass 40. At my office the CEO is in his 50s and does be rocking Jordans. We wear chinos, with polos, feelcw etc but sneakers is how we express ourselves.
I’m 43 and I still wear my Jordan’s all of the time. For guys my age who grew up watching Jordan and buying his sneakers (the black/raptor 7’s were my first back in 1992) it’s just nostalgia more than anything.
I am 45 and my style is always adapting and my example is I got rid of my Travis scott Aj1's multiple colorways because I have outgrown the backwards check even though they look nice. I am just doing 85 cut Aj1's and just OG'S in general. So my answer is never 😅
I used to dress up for a certain corporate part in my early 20’s. And now I’m almost 40, I dress how I like. Like many people, the older I get, the fewer s**ts and f**ks I give about what other people think, especially of how I look.
Same here. I’m 56, and give ZERO f**ks on what people think!!! 😂 I always match my style with what I’m wearing, and get compliments every now, and again from some younger folks, so I guess I’m doing it right!!! I wear what I like also, NOT what’s trending this week.
Man, you should be able to wear whatever the hell you want!! If dudes can wear skirts and dresses now.. I’m wearing Jordan’s as long as I want.. in fact, that’s my era! 80’s baby 90s kid.. 😂
I identify as a part time Sneakerhead, so you’re dam right I’m wearing them until I don’t want to anymore, and I don’t see that happening in the near future, and I’m 56!!!
I’m 47 & only expanding the Jordan collection. Love incorporating my sneakers into my diverse wardrobe & sharing my sense of style with my kids. Style has no age limits!
42 year old here. I’ll NEVER stop!! Has my style changed yes, as a kid I dressed from the feet up, as I get older I’m looking for sneakers to compliment my style.✌🏾
I’m 41, with muscular dystrophy, I don’t know how much longer I can walk, so better believe I’m going to wear my Jordan’s as long as I can even if I end up in a power chair.
I'm 41 and I'll never stop with wearing j's. That's why I watch this chAnnel because of the look books you provide Ed, so I try to up my game clothes wise with my favorite j's.
Friends, I just turned 50, and I love my retro Jordan’s. Bought my first pair in 1988, and haven’t looked back. Jordan’s are a staple for some of us, and you cannot put an age limit on one’s happiness. For anyone to say your too old to do anything is ridiculous. Live how you want, and don’t let others ruin your day with BS. I have over 50 pairs, including Nike SB Chunky Dunkys, judge yourself, not me. Peace!
People in their 40s & 50s are the ones that put and kept Jordan’s in demand to the point of them being relevant for us today. They had the real OG colorways
Yep. I had the original black, and red ones in 85, as a senior in high school. I always keep all my sneakers in the original boxes also. I just wish I still had them, because they are worth a small fortune, but I probably wouldn’t sell them anyway, unless someone offered me stupid money, them I would let them go!!!
Awesome video. I'm 43 and didn't get my first pair of Jordans until after I turned 40. Point 4 really hit home for me...I'm not trying to have 30 pair in my collection, just some nice, simple colorways that are wearable. I have the UNC heel lows,the black toe lows and the washed gray highs...nothing flashy, just classic silhouettes.
So you didn’t realize you liked Jordan’s until a couple years ago. I bet you watched minorities wear them all through growing up. But now you like them. Interesting. Influenced much? Lol
You're never too old to wear J's and other lifestyle kicks. I do think that there is definitely a time and a place to NOT wear lifestyle kicks and you should wear dressier footwear.
I’m 50 and love sneakers & fashion. As long as I feel good in my outfits I’ll continue wearing Jordans. As you stated in your video, dress appropriately
🇬🇧 50 this year.. wardrobe is diverse .. I am in better shape than guys in their 25’s … if they make you feel good… go for it …. I may wear NB tomorrow though 😂
I’m 31 and a sneakerhead. Rocked Jordan’s all my life until last year got into Nike sb’s. But what really helped was when I learned how to layer with my outfits. Never too old to rock any kind of shoe
Never too OLD...I'm 47 and rocking the "J's" and Travis Scotts....I have roughly 32 pairs and still going....I see them and like them and buy them for me...I couldn't afford them when I was little so now I can(I have YEEZYS on the way..LOL)...LOL...Then I buy my clothes to go around my Kicks...My wife has nice pairs also and she is 50yrs old...She loves her Power puff SB's and has all the colors...Hey wear what you like!
Yo Eddie Love this topic that " after 40 " rule for Jordans is ridiculous that age is when you have money to buy Jordans!!! I'm in my 50s finally got me 2 pairs of 11s Black ,and Blue .and lifelong Yankees fan and I got the blue suede Jeter 11s ! Now would I wear 11s with shorts ...no ! but a pair of Navy Blue 5's with blue camo ...hey for me in my 50s now I can spend the money different priorities now I don't have to buy a composite bat ,lessons for numerous interests that my kids had ,wasn't gonna buy Jordans then but now hey styled right ....anything goes !!
I'm 43. Will wear J's till I die. Same goes for vans & sb's & trainers ect. Do what u like & feels good no matter what other people may say or project onto u. I'm a father of a younger child & out of the parents in her circle I dress young compared to them. And that's fine as long as I'm good with it which I am. Im not about to start wearing old man clothes & shoes cuz that what im supposed to or I have to look a certain way cuz im a parent. That's bs. Wear what u like. Esp if u put your fits 2gether right. Others r just jealous u hit it on the head...who hurt u? Lol. Love this channel & the content. The dudes in my area could learn a thing or 2 from watching u
I’m 42 going on 43 and I’m still wearing Jordans. I got designer canvas shoes and a few dress shoes for when I need to wear them. I’m very selective when buying sneakers nowadays. Still getting compliments on Jordan’s. Rock what you like.. people still wear vans and chucks and they’ve been around forever. J’s are forever too
I understand being the old dude dressed like a teenager. Of course, that can be ridiculous, but if you know how to rock Jordans, Kobes, Yeezys, etc., and be a stylish middle aged or older person, I say go for it. I refuse to believe that you have to rock Nike Monarchs, loafers, or leather dress shoes just because you're over 40. Some dudes have this arbitrary cutoff but they don't know what they're missing. I'm 44 and I wear my Kobes, and some Jordans all the time, and Yeezy Slides around the house.
I’m 46 years old Italian/American and I still wear my Jordan,let me tell you something,the 80’s bro that’s our era that’s our shoe style …. Jordan’s all day long …. Now kids in this days are wear old timer shoes …. That’s our era.
Just turned 40 myself. 250 pairs of sneakers, around 150 Jordans. My logic: Jordan 11 Concords have 45 on the back. I’ll reconsider where I’m at in 5 years time.
I’m 47 and been a sneaker head since the 6th grade. Got best dressed in 8th grade. My son now is 14 and digs my sneaker collection always asking to “wear” a pair here and there. Keep it fresh peeps! 🙏🏼
I’m 45 and been wearing Nikes and Jordan’s for as long as I remember. I’m a collector of them as well and buy what I want and wear what I want. I have dress shoes, loafers and designer shoes also. I dress depending on my mood, the event or how much drip I wanna bring out that day. Don’t let people put you in a box and tell you how to dress. Do what makes YOU happy, you don’t need to seek others approval!!!!!!!!
It’ll never stop. I’m pushing 40. What changes with age is going thru the obstacles of obtaining a shoe. It’s no longer “I need those” type of vibe. It’s now “I had those” but I’m coo with what I held on to.
That’s so dumb, there’s no age limit on liking and rocking sneakers. My pops was in his late teens when Jordan was playing. Now he’s grown and buys them still cause now he can afford all the jays he and the family wants now lol Ima be the same.
I'm 32 and I wouldn't wear Jordans again. I tried with the reimagined 3s last year but I can't do it. When I'm walking around town and there are a bunch of teenagers wearing the same shoe you do start to think fuck am I too old for these now. But I wouldn't begrudge anyone older than me wearing them. Wear what you want. I'm a NB Solomon ASICS man anyways.
I’m 44 and still love them. I remember when they all first released. Like the 11’s I can remember exactly where I was the first time I seen those patient leather beauties. I was in love sophomore year. But you do have to keep a classy too. Like some black cement 4’s. A nice polo. And a black and red fitted. But each pair brings up some nostalgia for me. Like most people that are in to the sneaker seen. I say rock what you like.
I’m a 45 year old Cuban American Miami born woman living in SoFlo! I wear Jordans to go out with my outfits including leather jackets and blazers to complete the look for the beach! I don’t think there’s an age limit for Jordans because nowadays these specific shoes are for all ages because it’s all the fashion right now and also we live in sneaker culture every day! So that question is out of the question. Period!
i mean, jordans look way better than the nike monarchs that guys in their 50's and 60's wear everyday haha. i personally am not a fan of jordans, but im not gonna stop rocking my adidas superstars when i hit 40
First of all, nobody dictates what I wear if it's not work related. I don't even agree with fashion tips, unless a person asks for that. If I don't like what a person is wearing, that's my opinion. They may love it. I'm going to wear what I want, as long as I like what I see when I look in the mirror. By the way, I'm a woman pushing 42, with over 100 pairs of "tennis shoes". 😅 💯
I’ll be 90 wearing Jordan’s how can someone tell u to quit wearing something from your era people that say that either could not afford them back then our don’t have enff culture swag to rock them that’s like telling the guy who made the comments that he’s to old to signify because that’s something you do in grammar school or high school everything the black man do to unify people they try to destroy smh shout out win for trying to be respectful and give game 🫡
💯. It's real simple.... our grandfathers wore hard bottom shoes, and we are the sneaker generation. nobody can minimize or take it away from us because at large its engrained in us. Anyone who doesn't agree with our infatuation with sneakers, and WHY.... they can die in agony over it. We are who we are. Same reason our grandfathers wore hard bottoom shoes is the same reason we're gonna wear sneakers until we die. Doesn't mean we don't keep certain pairs like clarks wallabes ready for the right occasion. I cringed at Maniscalco's take.... really poor and uninformed. and 100 percent you are right... its about personal style.
I think that it definitely depends on the pair. Ones never go out of style and can be worn casually with a sweater or button up. I also stick to the classic and neutral colorways. Nothing too flashy.
Imagine me being to old to wear the shoes that came out when I was growing up. They weren’t retro’s they were the first of its kind (Jordans) now fast forward to someone trying to tell me that I can’t wear shoes that are old as me…make it make sense
I started wearing Jordan's in 1985. Then stopped and picked them up again in 2024 when I was 44 because I saw Dana White sporting them and I said fuuk it.
I dress it up a hit as well. Got invited to a wedding and busted out the gratitudes. Everbody had on dress shoes but naw not ya boi. I was the freshest in the room
I'm 47 and I mostly wear Js on the weekend when I'm out just running around. It's something about them when I see anyone wearing I just take a second look at them. I will definitely match them up with something and not just be out there looking off. I'm just select with my colors for the most part.
As a 45-year-old, I still wear Jordans, but I noticed that I only buy the more subtle, minimalist ones now. If they're mostly white or all black I'll get them, but I'll pass if they are too busy or loud.
I couldn't agree with you more my brother!! I'm 38 and my only rule is if I feel good wearing my Jordans and it goes with my fit, I'm good to go. By the way, those brown timberland boots are soon gonna be added to my collection lol thanks bro didn't know they existed. I fuck with this channel, we have similar styles and you have good takes. Good shit my friend! My man said "who hurt you" 😂
I think when folks think of people wearing sneakers or Jordan’s they think that means said person’s fashion is underwhelming or childish. Speaking for myself it’s very possible to wear fashionable things with Jordan’s.
40yo here. Love your vids. Thanks for looking out for us as usual. I do have to say, best tip in the vid for me is getting the right Jordans. My Obsidian 1s get the most wear because they go with most of my wardrobe and I can't see them every going out of fashion. My Union Guava 4s, not so much, but I'm always looking for a reason.
Thanks for the video Eddy! I’ll be wearing J’s till the day that I die. I never let anyone tell me what I can and can’t wear and I don’t care what is trendy. I rock my own style instead of trying to copy everyone else. I’ll be 47 in a few months and have 160 sneakers now. Growing up through the birth of sneaker culture, it’s so fun now to get stuff I had or never had from back in the day.
UPDATE: Sebastian is aware of this video and will be responding! 😂 twitter.com/eddiewinkicks/status/1765894477548302500?s=21&t=xX0VLn1Dc5GrAdrZIfKyVA
i bet you he couldn't name 10 popular jordan silhouette / colorways.
you can't get an opinion like that from a guy that probably doesn't even wear jordans on a regular basis which makes what he is saying irrelevant. ask a true sneakerhead that question for a more pure answer because multiple videos have popped up about the subject and all the men are saying this is way off.
this is no hate towards sebastian either as i am a fan of his comedy work.
@@vinnyliscano4884 100% spot on!!!
that is like a random person telling him at a certain age he's too old to do comedy.
This is beyond silly…our generation who’re these when we were kids but we can’t wear them as grown men?!?!
Guys I am 65 and still wear my Jordans, Nikes, and Yeezys and the way I have taken care of myself, and the way I style my outfits regularly gets “he so fresh” when I am out. I need to start a You Tube channel to show what a guy in his sixty’s means to the sneaker community. Guys never let anyone tell you what you can’t do!
Clothing is a way of personal expression, and no one can tell you how to express yourself. Sneakers mean different things to different people. 👟
How old is your oldest pair? How long untill jordan 1's are unwearable?
Til I die😂😂
So I guess you don’t like Stacy Adam’s
Yea my dad is 69 and still wear his. He is one of the original sneaker addicts. Successful in life. Wear what you want. Let no one tell you what to put on.
I'm 51 and just started wearing Jordans. My kid got me into them, thanks son!! Love them!!
Bro literally the same. Christmas present at 51.
ditto, only I'm a woman!
I’m 42, I’m still wearing sneakers
Same here
Im 41 👌🏼 and i wear jordans and newbalance
I'm 39 and will be wearing sneakers pass 40. At my office the CEO is in his 50s and does be rocking Jordans. We wear chinos, with polos, feelcw etc but sneakers is how we express ourselves.
Theses shoes are from your time. So absolutely.
I think if you're 35+, (I'm 39) then you probably watched Jordan and it's about nostalgia more than anything. I'll always wear Js!
Never stop wearing what you like. Just gotta learn to mix it up.
That part.
Exactly.
I’m 43 and I still wear my Jordan’s all of the time. For guys my age who grew up watching Jordan and buying his sneakers (the black/raptor 7’s were my first back in 1992) it’s just nostalgia more than anything.
I’m 41 and that was my first pair of J’s as well. Crazy enough I got them at an outlet back when I was a kid. Good times!
The Black Raptor is awesome. I call it the "shrug game" because he wore this model in game 1 of the Finals.
no age limit on being fly
Facts!
For real!!!!!
I am 45 and my style is always adapting and my example is I got rid of my Travis scott Aj1's multiple colorways because I have outgrown the backwards check even though they look nice. I am just doing 85 cut Aj1's and just OG'S in general. So my answer is never 😅
Me too! 85’s and OG color ways only now!!
I used to dress up for a certain corporate part in my early 20’s. And now I’m almost 40, I dress how I like. Like many people, the older I get, the fewer s**ts and f**ks I give about what other people think, especially of how I look.

Plus now we have grown up money to spend for sneakers 😉
Man, you should be able to wear whatever the hell you want!! If dudes can wear skirts and dresses now.. I’m wearing Jordan’s as long as I want.. in fact, that’s my era! 80’s baby 90s kid.. 😂

He has to sell em
💯
Who hurt you?
😂😂😂😂 that’s it…rite there!
Bruh im 37 n when i am 80 i will still be rockin jordans if they our around
I’m 41, with muscular dystrophy, I don’t know how much longer I can walk, so better believe I’m going to wear my Jordan’s as long as I can even if I end up in a power chair.

I’m 49 still rocking Jordans. Don’t care. It’s how you wear them and what you wear them with. 💪🏽
I’m 31 and a sneakerhead. Rocked Jordan’s all my life until last year got into Nike sb’s. But what really helped was when I learned how to layer with my outfits. Never too old to rock any kind of shoe
My dude you saved alot of guys grace
This must be shared so all the classic brothers can see how this can go so we can dead this conversation
I'm 45 and I just grabbed 2 pairs of Leather black cement 4s! I'm from that era that never ages we adapt!
Im 45 and still wearing Jordans.
Mark Wahlberg is 52 years old and still rock his AJs.
Never too OLD...I'm 47 and rocking the "J's" and Travis Scotts....I have roughly 32 pairs and still going....I see them and like them and buy them for me...I couldn't afford them when I was little so now I can(I have YEEZYS on the way..LOL)...LOL...Then I buy my clothes to go around my Kicks...My wife has nice pairs also and she is 50yrs old...She loves her Power puff SB's and has all the colors...Hey wear what you like!

Yo Eddie Love this topic that " after 40 " rule for Jordans is ridiculous that age is when you have money to buy Jordans!!! I'm in my 50s finally got me 2 pairs of 11s Black ,and Blue .and lifelong Yankees fan and I got the blue suede Jeter 11s !

Those Maniere 5’s with the fit u wearing is fire!!!!!
I'm 43. Will wear J's till I die. Same goes for vans & sb's & trainers ect. Do what u like & feels good no matter what other people may say or project onto u. I'm a father of a younger child & out of the parents in her circle I dress young compared to them. And that's fine as long as I'm good with it which I am.

If you grew up wearing Jordan’s, dunks or any other sneakers and you still comfortable in them, wear them. Same goes with tracksuits.
You know how I feel about this. I buy Js for my grandfather and he loves wearing them. He’ll be 90 in April. I’ll rock Js for life.
Totally agree. Styling your outfit with Js is more important than wearing Jordans themselves
Dumbest question ever!! Micheal Jordan is how old?? Still wears his shoes gtfoh😅
Bang on!! I’m 52, collect and wear Jordan’s - my collection is insane 🔥🔥🇬🇧🇬🇧
I’m 44 and I have at least 15 pairs of Jordan’s. Just got my Olive 5’s on Monday. Love all my sneakers.
Idgaf! I'm 39 with a nice collection and I'll be rockin my shit until I decide I don't want to.
I understand being the old dude dressed like a teenager. Of course, that can be ridiculous, but if you know how to rock Jordans, Kobes, Yeezys, etc., and be a stylish middle aged or older person, I say go for it.

I’ll be 55 this year and i still wear my Jordans, love them😁
I’m 46 years old Italian/American and I still wear my Jordan,let me tell you something,the 80’s bro that’s our era that’s our shoe style ….
Jordan’s all day long ….
Now kids in this days are wear old timer shoes …. That’s our era.
Just turned 40 myself.
250 pairs of sneakers, around 150
Jordans.
My logic: Jordan 11 Concords have 45 on the back.
I’ll reconsider where I’m at in 5 years time.
Dammit I got 10 years of fresh ass Jordan’s left in me
I’m 47 and been a sneaker head since the 6th grade. Got best dressed in 8th grade. My son now is 14 and digs my sneaker collection always asking to “wear” a pair here and there. Keep it fresh peeps! 🙏🏼
Who hurt you is classic😂😂 we are never to old to stay fresh 😎💯
I’m 45 and been wearing Nikes and Jordan’s for as long as I remember. I’m a collector of them as well and buy what I want and wear what I want. I have dress shoes, loafers and designer shoes also. I dress depending on my mood, the event or how much drip I wanna bring out that day. Don’t let people put you in a box and tell you how to dress. Do what makes YOU happy, you don’t need to seek others approval!!!!!!!!
I bought my first pair of J’s two months before I turned 40. I now own 13 pairs.
It’ll never stop. I’m pushing 40. What changes with age is going thru the obstacles of obtaining a shoe. It’s no longer “I need those” type of vibe. It’s now “I had those” but I’m coo with what I held on to.
I'm 59 and I still wear them. And Air Max 97's Dunks, Low Jordans; Dunk Retros, in a large assortment of colorways. Shamelessly.
That’s so dumb, there’s no age limit on liking and rocking sneakers. My pops was in his late teens when Jordan was playing. Now he’s grown and buys them still cause now he can afford all the jays he and the family wants now lol Ima be the same.

I’m 50 and my kick game is still 🔥. Gotta evolve but do you. Some try TOO hard. Stay fresh fellas
First of all, nobody dictates what I wear if it's not work related. I don't even agree with fashion tips, unless a person asks for that. If I don't like what a person is wearing, that's my opinion. They may love it. I'm going to wear what I want, as long as I like what I see when I look in the mirror. By the way, I'm a woman pushing 42, with over 100 pairs of "tennis shoes". 😅 💯
I’ll be 90 wearing Jordan’s how can someone tell u to quit wearing something from your era people that say that either could not afford them back then our don’t have enff culture swag to rock them that’s like telling the guy who made the comments that he’s to old to signify because that’s something you do in grammar school or high school everything the black man do to unify people they try to destroy smh shout out win for trying to be respectful and give game 🫡
True enough you can definitely wear Jordans after 40 "with matured matching dress up" and you should stop dress up like a hip hop star.
If yall don't think age matters with jordans, then yall shouldn't have a problem wearing those light up shoes children wear.
I’m 58 and I’m never gonna stop! I appreciate this video! You hit on every aspect of how to properly age with your AJ’s!!
Just wear them with style. Being 43 I have to feel comfortable. Just keep them clean.
I am 43 years old and I ain't taking advice who makes funny for a living.
💯. It's real simple.... our grandfathers wore hard bottom shoes, and we are the sneaker generation. nobody can minimize or take it away from us because at large its engrained in us. Anyone who doesn't agree with our infatuation with sneakers, and WHY.... they can die in agony over it. We are who we are.
Same reason our grandfathers wore hard bottoom shoes is the same reason we're gonna wear sneakers until we die. Doesn't mean we don't keep certain pairs like clarks wallabes ready for the right occasion. I cringed at Maniscalco's take.... really poor and uninformed. and 100 percent you are right... its about personal style.
I just turned 50 and I been rocking Js since 1985! Now, I do agree that it depends on which ones you wear, and how you wear them, but rock them Js !
I think that it definitely depends on the pair. Ones never go out of style and can be worn casually with a sweater or button up. I also stick to the classic and neutral colorways. Nothing too flashy.
The graphic t-shirts with comic characters and stuff like that is way more troubling for grown men than wearing sneakers.
I'm 43 and still wear Jordans and I ain't stopping..
That’s our era, so we’re rocking till the soles fall off.
Imagine me being to old to wear the shoes that came out when I was growing up. They weren’t retro’s they were the first of its kind (Jordans) now fast forward to someone trying to tell me that I can’t wear shoes that are old as me…make it make sense
If these women still having kids at 40yrs old I can still wear my jordans 😂
If you wear something authentically and make it work with your style then wear it forever.
I’m 42 and I wear my Jordan’s I don’t cares what people think it’s my money.
I started wearing Jordan's in 1985. Then stopped and picked them up again in 2024 when I was 44 because I saw Dana White sporting them and I said fuuk it.
@@the_gem_ofthewest welcome back to the game!
I dress it up a hit as well. Got invited to a wedding and busted out the gratitudes. Everbody had on dress shoes but naw not ya boi. I was the freshest in the room
47 baby..its all about ur drip..swag..ur fly...when you have style there isn't a question of age
jordans are timeless. why would anyone stop wearing jordans? smh
ain't stopping . until my blood stops pumping . jordans for life ✊️🙏
47...great family...successful career...*looks down*...wearing Jordans
Hahah love that, you already won
I’m 40 and started collecting since the age of 36 so yeah, I’m a bit late to the game.
I'm 47 and I mostly wear Js on the weekend when I'm out just running around. It's something about them when I see anyone wearing I just take a second look at them. I will definitely match them up with something and not just be out there looking off. I'm just select with my colors for the most part.
Im 42. I will always wear sneakers including jordans until I get tired of it. Period
Bro. You are way older than 40 & you need to get a pair of shoes that were made for grown men.
Wearing sneakers doesn't have an age limit but at least balance it out overall wear your sneakers with pride
As a 45-year-old, I still wear Jordans, but I noticed that I only buy the more subtle, minimalist ones now. If they're mostly white or all black I'll get them, but I'll pass if they are too busy or loud.
Im 47 Bought the Olive 4s Palimino 3s an bext Olive 5. All within a year. I feel great
Same. Well, 41 but same shoes.
I couldn't agree with you more my brother!! I'm 38 and my only rule is if I feel good wearing my Jordans and it goes with my fit, I'm good to go. By the way, those brown timberland boots are soon gonna be added to my collection lol thanks bro didn't know they existed. I fuck with this channel, we have similar styles and you have good takes. Good shit my friend! My man said "who hurt you" 😂
I think when folks think of people wearing sneakers or Jordan’s they think that means said person’s fashion is underwhelming or childish. Speaking for myself it’s very possible to wear fashionable things with Jordan’s.
“Grown Man” is a cringe term, Dressing like an adult certainly doesn’t make you man.
Fair enough. Just look at Steven Tyler.
40yo here. Love your vids. Thanks for looking out for us as usual.
I do have to say, best tip in the vid for me is getting the right Jordans. My Obsidian 1s get the most wear because they go with most of my wardrobe and I can't see them every going out of fashion. My Union Guava 4s, not so much, but I'm always looking for a reason.
Most sneakers are retros and styles from the 90's and earlier.
Thanks for the video Eddy! I’ll be wearing J’s till the day that I die. I never let anyone tell me what I can and can’t wear and I don’t care what is trendy. I rock my own style instead of trying to copy everyone else.
I’ll be 47 in a few months and have 160 sneakers now. Growing up through the birth of sneaker culture, it’s so fun now to get stuff I had or never had from back in the day.
Jordan can be wore at any age......just don't dress like a Jim Jones
😂
U Stop win Jordans when you’re dead
Yes I am 39 years old and I still collect my Jordans just like I did as a teenager
Love to see it!
