faacts!

[@raptor3592]

I love these videos dude, they're not too long and they don't take too much of my time! I get to be a sneakerhead and learn about the culture without spending hours doing my own research. Thank you!

[@NachoAverageFinds]

I'm glad you're finding some enjoyment out of them bro. They take a ton of work to make haha

[@phillip_reynolds]

Those G-Unit sneakers were HOT 20 years ago. Didn’t Reebok drop a mixtape that came in the shoe box with them and/or the S. Carter’s? Excellent video, my guy!

[@NachoAverageFinds]

They most likely did! The G unit sneakers sold well at first

[@northernlightz5319]

I love watching this channel. I learned something new every time.

That means a lot brodie thank you

It would be cool to see a video about skate shoes that defined 90s and 2000s skateboarding. I know y'all did a video on DC Shoes but it would definitely be cool to hear y'all talk more about skate shoes.

[@NachoAverageFinds]

Absolutely bro. I want to do more skate shoes

[@qu3nt]

remember when nike was considered “lame” from the skate community?

[@MrLouis-of3yl]

@@qu3nt I mean I was barely alive during that time so I don't think I could remember but I do know of that time.

[@thestarseeker8196]

A bunch of metal kids back in the day used to rock high top Nikes almost exclusively too, even though "sneaker culture" and that world didn't blatantly have a symbiotic thing, it's still cool and interesting to see what different scenes tend to adopt. It would be interesting to find some guys from classic speed metal bands and such and talk to them about their Vandals and stuff.

[@MrLouis-of3yl]

@@thestarseeker8196 I mean I know white high tops are a staple of thrash fashion

Hey nacho. Love your vids. I grew up in London in the 80s and 90s and remember vividly the hot sneakers for a minute, between the OG Max 90's and reebok pump were British Knights and Troop. Did you guys have them n the US in the mid 90s ??

I worked at foot action / foot locker from 2005-2008 and it was the greatest experience to have seen lots of sneakers release. Everyone went crazy for the g-unit sneakers lol good ole days

[@NachoAverageFinds]

That's a wild time to be working at Footlocker haha

[@fortunateson2]

A time when you could into a store actually buy a sneaker. Before the secondary market and jacked up prices came about.

Daddy Yankee is from Puerto Rico not England which is what “across the the pond refers to”

My writing partner is in the UK so that’s why it sounded like that lmaoo

It does mean the UK

Lugs ad was in every hiphop magazine, I remember K1X had their thing with Ron Artest and their stuff was pretty fine too. Still got the GXT IIIs in great conditions which I bought cuz I couldnt find a white based pair of af1s in seoul back then (they only had few pairs of af25 1s left) Still remember soulja boy's Yums rippin off Bapestas and later Rick Ross gettin his Watermelon cw.

I love AF1's because of Nelly, my favorite shoe to date. Got multiple pairs, always loved the unique simplicity of them

[@davidmolina9166]

I've ALWAYS made sure to have a nice pair of all white and all black AF1's every year since my teenage days in the mid 90's when friends and I started wearing them way BEFORE Nelly came out with that track.

[@1eljugo]

My favorite has always been Troop. Everyone had those back in the day. There was even a "Troop Boutique" by my house. I remember getting MC Hammer's autograph there.

[@aljavinramirez9699]

I had the red G-Unit Reebok shoes that my mom bought me at Ross back in the day

[@aleksanderprzytua]

Yup late 90 and early 2000 was crazy - everyone had a shoe model, and peak of this trend was skate shoes. Litellary every single one of "pro skaters" had his own pro model...that was so sick back then.

[@NachoAverageFinds]

Skated shoe video coming soon Aleks

[@aleksanderprzytua]

​​@@NachoAverageFindsawesome! I remember back in a day how me and my fellow skaters wear different skateshoes and it was crazy, like "oh shit this dude wears Fallens bet he's hardcore" or "that homie got some éS so he's probably mellow and more hiphop kinda guy" :D and don't get me started on whiteass rastas-wannabies in iPaths :D man, what a times...
