Okay, this whole D.M.V. / New York debate needs to end. Who gives a rat’s ass about who wore ‘em first? The point here is it’s Wale who made the song and he’s the one getting credit, not Stack Bundles even if he was wearing ‘em first. And to all the Wale fans, dude’s a hypebeast. You guys have to know that. Also ease up off Ray. The man is just stating his opinion. There’s no way to prove who wore ‘em first without a time machine anyway.

In my opinion, wearing boots casually is pretty stupid in itself but whatever.

I dont know who started it but I know I remember when I worked at Finishline in Fairfax VA some cats from Bmore came all the way down there lookin for a couple pair cuz they were sold out in MD and DC. We were sold out in all black and only had all white and all tan, he bought 2 pair of the all white, and 1 pair of the tan cuz he never seen those colors before it ran him about 500 bucks he was sysed shit I was too! my boss was like you sold over 500 worth stuff + the waterproofer+cleaner. Also one of my friends is from The District(DC) and he was wearing them in 2000 cuz hes a big and tall dude and goadomes got mad cushion. I like em, but im getting the goarounds, they look better and are cheaper right now 1.

If you noticed my statement clearly said “WDYWTD or the street”.. so you’re retort is invalid. Miskeen didnt do glitter shirts LOL. This debate isnt going anywhere but this is what i want to see more of on TSG. People discussing a topic instead of everyone just agreeing “yeah this is HOT”
Groc you know im an opinionate dude and my opinions always go against the crowd! LOL

^LOL@Boogie
“TSG in ya face and that’s all you can come up with?”…Nelly? Good lyrics?Aight good brutha you got it. You letting “What did you wear today?” forums dictate fashion? Go outside…btw you lost with the Posite comment, if you leave NYC…you can go anywhere in any state ask someone about Foams/Flights and they are gonna say “Oh that’s that DC isht with those glitter shirts and what not”…and that was long before Miskeen

i cannot give props to wale if he isnt representing the culture properly.. im supposed to cheer bc he wears nikes and supreme hats? No. I respect a man who works hard at his craft and his material reflects it. I gave respect to Nelly for Airforce Ones bc the beat was INSANE and the hook was crazy and the lyrics were good too.. So i prop Nelly for making a sneaker anthem. Is that a fair comparison MellowYellowMD???

and YES foams are an nyc thing. go to any court you’ll see someone wearing 2000yr Foams still.

Another thing I want to point out. MD/DC may have been using Nike boots on the functional tip (what they were made for, and probably because they were just NIKE and happend to be boots) but NYC is responsible for A LOT of trends because we make everything Fashionable… I say thats a fair conclusion. I personally never saw or heard any one on any WDYWTD forum or in the street saying.. ” i wear ACG’s cuz im fly” before Harlem made it a stamp similar to Construction Timbs. Wearing it with items for fashion.

There are a bunch of conventional shoes that were worn by many, but made “fashionable” by NYC.
