This might be my episode of the year, hearing how Chen explains what he wants to do with the stripes as well as what he wants to do to leave a legacy behind, is really inspiring, i seriously couldnt stop listening so closely to him. Also props to Welty for not underselling, respect to standing on his opinion to the end! Thank you team and keep up the good work.

Welty is a much needed voice in the sneaker community. If you can’t appreciate/respect his opinions, please watch the dozens of other sycophant shoetubers who hype the 378th Travis Scott 1 Low

I remember the Gazelle being on everything like the Samba now is. Again, great post & I'm looking forward to Chen's & Adidas' new union!

The Devin Booker thing is tiring. You reposted his comment without context, thinking he agreed with you. You're saying he should've been aware that his comment would be news. Now he's reposting that you're spinning a narrative. Based on your initial thought process, it should be understandable to you, if he actually feels that way.
