[itdiedin98]

^Raleigh

[Mr Waffles]

I live in Charlotte and I see fake bapes everyonce and a while. I usually dont see too many sbs or anything. I do see a lot of jordunks and other grs because there is like eight journeys around here and they carry a lot of dunks.

[AfrocentricPatrick]

i'm in Wilmington

[Black Chanler]

Big ups to Raleigh, shops are slowly comming to NC though.

[debs 168]

...yeah, i know. =/ i was in charlotte yesterday...i was in south park rocking SBTG's. anyway, nobody was really rocking anything worthwhile...i saw a girl with a fake pair of ironman bapestas on. thats about it. =/

[dokedoke]

Im down in Wilmington....and yea...Charlotte is about as close to any shoeheads as you will get probably...There are a lot of skaters in Raleigh who rock sb's...but most of the stuff is just ghetto dirty south style dudes rocking fakes and fake hypebeast hoodies....the best shops are of course Vertical Urge in Raleigh/Cary and then there is Niche (boutique in Charlotte, really cool shop/owners) and next door is Black sheep(skate shop that carries sb's)

[Katsumoto]

im in the raleigh/garner area.

and yes about everyone around here this area rocks fakes, its rediculous.


*Im better known as Katsumoto on iss. later

[SBJmarT]

Yeah, Vertical Urge (Raleigh and Cary), Niche (Charlotte), and BlackSheep (Charlotte). You forgot about Endless Grind (Raleigh) though. Niche has a really layed-back and cool atmosphere. The guys that work there and the customers that come in are all really cool.

[itdiedin98]

Not to mention I spent most of my adolescence growing up in Germany and suburban Baltimore, so the whole dirty, gold teeth, big ass clothes, sloppy shyt is a shock and annoying to me. I got nothing against the south, but u get the point.

[karkouki]

^^^ what part of nc, that list of music looks just like mine. And my buddies lol your not looking are enough.

I'm in Durham

[SayWord]

*post*

[AfrocentricPatrick]

i dig most of that list.

i'm in wilmington. noone else is here.

[SoleFresh87]

damn ,, so gotta move to NC for those sneaker heads huh? well i guess until then im the only one in SC haaha, i have better chances to open up a shop up there than here , too much fake and lowballers down here

[kicklove]

I'm live in Charlotte, but I go to school at Oak Hill in Mouth of Wilson, Va.

I'm at home for the summer and I plan on getting some stuff, but I completely agree about the fakes and all that, Yesterday at carolina place I saw a kid wearing red and clear 7's and i was like duuuuuuuuude no?!

[dunkmax]

I live in Charlotte and go to CPCC and see people rocking fakes all the time I have seen clear Jordan VII's also. There are some sneaker heads around NC.

[HonorRollSoles]

chapel hillian with more kicks than karate flicks.

[Black Chanler]

Im thinking about gettign some kinda sneakerhead/cookout thing started sometime this summer near NC State. Dont know what'd the hell we do but maybe the NC sneakerhead shit will take off if we establish a bit more community ya know?

but PM me for suggestions before I scrap the whole ideal

[Rapkingpen]

Yo Chandler do u go to NC State?
But yeah your whole idea sounds good man. I stay in Raleigh and go to school 45 min away in the boondocks of Campbell University.

[Black Chanler]

Nah cuz, I dont go to State but I figure Pullen Park would be the best location. I go to North Carolina Central....but I know folks at State....and Campbell lol.

[Rapkingpen]

Oh word, get at me than son, I don't know where Pullen Park is though, I just moved down NC a yr ago from Maryland, but I'm pretty much know my self around though.

From the South
Take 85 North into Charlotte. Take Freedom Drive exit – Go for several miles. You will cross over 77 and come to a 3 way stop. Take a right at the stop sign on to Summit. Go straight until road dead ends into a light. Go right on to Camden and park at very first parking lot on left. NICHE is across the street.

[itdiedin98]

^yeah the fake epidemic is terrible down here.

but PM me for suggestions before I scrap the whole ideal

still wondering if that summer idea is gonna pop off. there should be a decent amount of us between HB (hypebeast) and NT (niketalk). Pullen park would be the area to have it though since like you said its more of a community thing. Not much to do over there then chill and basketball. I mean we can hit malls but i mean that means we have to travel and stuff. I dont know. im just putting it out there. btw im out in Garner/Raleigh area.

[Rapkingpen]

^

same here Raleigh area.

[BruhMan]

i live like an hour and a half from raleigh but if u guys go through with this i'd make the drive up to chill.

[Katsumoto]

just to let yall know whoever is into little brother there is a concert coming up soon. more information will be provided when i get the chance. btw its free..

[itdiedin98]

^are you talking about tonight at cat's cradle? i would go but its for 21 and over.

[Katsumoto]

^are you talking about tonight at cat's cradle? i would go but its for 21 and over.

matter of fact your right bro. i just checked out the website and the rsvp is closed off. Dude i worked with told me about it and i totally forgot until today. Guess it was too late. but yep its 21 and up.

[karkouki]

I went it was fire. Little Brother actually did it unplugged with a band.

D Brock was there elizah, joe scudda, and carlitta durand (the chick who sings on life of the party).

[Katsumoto]

anything going on for the 4th?

[Black Chanler]

Has anyone been to FM sounds and goods in Raleigh yet? Its less than 10 minutes away from my crib I'm surprised I never visited.

[itdiedin98]

yeah ive been there...nothing special. i live about 10 minutes from there too.

[Katsumoto]

what street this located on?

[itdiedin98]

its on glenwood right up from endless grind.

[Black Chanler]

I went To FM sounds and goods today and I was talking to one of the owners. He is pretty down to earth, he showed me his nike collection and talked about hypebeast a little bit. Its better than the Niche in my opinion (Niche has Uarm though). Come October they will be allowed to sell nike products so yeah...

It gets a thumbs up from me. Dont sleep.

[Katsumoto]

guess its something to do this weekend then. i might check it out then.

good look. what type of stuff is in there?

[Black Chanler]

Crooks,Mighty Healthy, WeSC, DC, Diamond, 10 Deep,Vans. They have more tees than the niche too and they got fitteds as well and like I said earlier they'll have nike in the fall. They also carry music and magazines and stuff.

[Eggroll822]

FM is real chill place. Niche has the more boutique style to it, but FM is a real chill laid back environment.

FM has our FYSH shirts in august, Summer/Fall 1. We pulled our spring tees from there.

MF Doom release just passed real chill too, always enjoy seeing those people and talking about kicks.

[dokedoke]

How many pairs of the dooms did the Raleigh stores get? When I was in Charlotte on Sunday the dude from Black Sheep said they only got like 1 pair for each size. Sucks down here in Wilmington the SB account is so random and they never know anything about they are getting. I dont really mess with new SB's anymore but damn I was hoping to pick up some extra cash.

[Katsumoto]

Vertical erge is gettin the bmx pack this week for sb's

[AfrocentricPatrick]

Well the guy that runs double-wide doesnt know what he is talking about. You don't just get a full tier Nike-SB account out of the blue, especially since that shop has only been around for a couple of years and we already have 2 SB accounts in wilmington

[line-one]

yeah i know i work at one. I think 17th street runs it out of their main branch. and i think theres would be hampstead just like sweetwater is wrightsville beach. But he is ordering everything he can and thats how you go up tiers so it will take a wile and prolly never get full but he is ganna try to get as much as he can he said.

[AfrocentricPatrick]

just heard about this place tonight and came to make sure people knew about it.

But as far as the attitude get used to it thats how people who sell this stuff usualy act and allot of people who are in to it have an attitude

thats the dumbest thing ive ever heard!! wouldnt people much rather buy from a shop and keep something like that going? but if someone is going to give someone attitude then just cop that shit online...they arnt selling anything there i cant get online..... customer service still exists.

i dono why you think the truth is the dumbest thing youve heard. I know I like good service but when you go to allot of the stores that sell this stuff you arnt ganna find great service there are exeptions but thats just the way it is

[Dirty Chris]

Exactly. People that sell the clothes that we want, are automatically better than us, so they can be assholes to us; because we want what they are selling, and we are losers.

i dont know what your talkin bout

[thebookend]

i dont know what your talkin bout

yea i had no idea what you were talking about either....something about having daddys credit card and making more money than the people working at the shop? and thats why they give you attitude?

explain homie.

[line-one]

Im sayin that these people who work in a store who have such an attitude and act like since they work there and sell you the clothes you buy that makes them so much better than you. But allot of the time your makin more money and more in to the shit than the ass employee workin. The daddys credit card comment talkin bout the spoiled kids who use their parents money to buy everything and they deserve to be treated like shit.

[ViewtifulHustl]

Just got back to the states, nothing has changed in Wilmington over the past two years. Still gotta check out downtown though.

[line-one]

yeah still nothing down town if anything we might have lost stuff.

lookin foward to this years event should be fun

[ViewtifulHustl]

I took a quick look downtown earlier today, all old people on the tour of the houses and shit.

[Extant]

I go through Wilmington when I go to Topsail Is. out there. Cool little town but it seems like everytime I go, its raining.:o

[complxsuede]

Yo, I'm moving to Charlotte from ATL. I've visited the city a couple of times but like all implants I'm trying to see where the heads are. I know about Niche & Black Sheep & Flava Factory but is that it?

[Extant]

Other than FootAction, FTL, FinishLine, and Athletes Foot that's about it. One SB shop in the city. Suck's but not pressured much.

[complxsuede]

what's there to do here besides bar hopping? I've been down to the epic center, mez and apostrophe.

[Ricco Suavé]

Two of my best friends just moved from Massachusetts to Wilmington. I went down there with them this summer to check it out. Amazing city.

[ViewtifulHustl]

Visitors and tourists always think that, I don't get it. Could be because I grew up there, and I'm used to it.

[Dirty Chris]

I had like a guy and girl from Mass. in one of my classes last year. I think they might have been siblings. Is that them?

[BruhMan]

did anyone attend the last sneaker summit? what all goes on? are there like performers and shit or just tables of kicks and thats it?

[Extant]

I missed the last one, but what i've seen on Youtube from past SneakerSummits they have a few DJ's and you'll have your sneaker boothes set up and everything.

[line-one]
