In this week\u2019s edition of The Good, the Bad & the Ugly,<\/strong> we talk about straps, restocks, and a really ambitious sneaker. Click through the pages below to check out what kicks made the list this time around.<\/p>\n

The Good- Strap It Up<\/strong><\/p>\n

Straps are awesome, and we think all brands should consider making velcro renditions of some of their low-top models.<\/p>\n

\n
\nThe Bad- (Re)Stock It Up?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Are restocks good or bad? Yeah, it’s great that we can get multiple shots at a sneaker, but is it hurting the overall excitement of sneaker releases? True, many buy sneakers mainly because they’re “limited,” so restocks help everyone have a chance to own (and wear) a sneaker they want. However, why not make release quantities larger in the first place? Either way, you shouldn’t buy sneakers because they’re limited, but because you like them.<\/p>\n

Air Jordan 3 Retro 88 Restock
\n
\nThe Ugly- Chukka It Up<\/strong><\/p>\n

This sneaker looks something like a dinosaur’s head, particularly Ducky<\/a> from Land Before Time. Sometimes brands just do too much, especially with snakeskin graphics and chukka silhouettes.<\/p>\n

\nThe Bad-(Re)Stock it Up<\/strong><\/p>\n

Are stocks good or bad? Yeah, it is great that one can get multiple shots at a sneaker but isn’t it hurting the perceived value of the sneaker? Admit it, you buy sneakers mainly because they’re “limited.” Not because you like the way they look, feel, etc. If there is a lot of backstock on a sneaker, then release it all at once, don’t linger onto every thousand pairs or so. Either way, you shouldn’t buy sneakers because they’re limited but because you like them.<\/p>\n
