Violence In The Sneaker World

Hello class, buying, collecting, and trading sneakers can be fun, but there are accidents that happen very often.

On February 13, 2016 a 17 year old boy was going to meet up with a 39 year old man to buy some Jordans. The 17 year old met up with this man and pointed a gun at him, and robbed the Jordans. In retaliation, the 39 year old ran his car into the 19 year old, cutting his arm off. All this over a pair of shoes.

In December of 2011 the Jordan Concord 11's released for the first time in 11 years. There were huge lines formed for this release. Unfortunately as the doors opened to buy these shoes, there were riots, fights , and people being trampled over.

As you can see, it can get violent out there when people want their shoes.

Till next time!
