[@youngicewater8289]

People should be able to get what they like

[@gab184th8]

Not just that almost 300 for those military 4’s in a PS size

[@JuanSanchez-oc6ez]

Stadium Goods doesn’t set the price. The owner of the shoe does. They’re a consignment store.

[@Sluggaboy27]

Facts, bro just paid $296 for Military Blue 4s PS that are sitting all across the country. I just got the same pair for my son for retail of $90 haha robbed that man.

[@KiloEcho75]

From the low effort cool to the ease of his swagger to paying in cash OG Style, T.I. was once again one of the better guests to ever be on Sneaker Shopping. These episodes just keep getting better and better and Joe and the Complex Crew are putting out quality each and mostly every time!!!

[@TitanWEX]

Man ti has always been fly to me. He is so original and stays true to himself he ain’t coping no trends

[@reggieg3280]

$39,000 for a sneaker that took 10 cents to make. Tbh, complex helps stadium goods stay in business. Those prices are ridiculous.

[@donnyouttheway4091]

It’s not complex. The sneaker game isnt full of authentic and real sneakerheads anymore. It’s people who are trying to keep up with the jones, wanna be apart of a convo or trying to make money off of other barely educated shoe lovers. Somebody right now is paying 400 dollars for some military blue 4s that somebody paid 200-220 retail. But the person who paid 400 is somehow the one that’s cool
