If you walk around my school the only nice sneakers you'll see (aside from me and a couple other kids) are all on asian feet. But I'm in Washington and we have lots of asian people here.

P.S. everyone is complainin about which race on this thread, but they're not even near eachother. Tha Bay could have more asians than ATL or vice-versa.

I hate anything involving race, but to answer the question, I think it's in this order:

Black>Asian>White>Spanish

But asians rock a sort of different style of kicks, and the whites are stepping up to the asians game now-a-days, black dudes rock whatever, but mostly the "ghetto" type shit. Spanish heads are bleh when it comes down (I'm half spanish, so stfu.)

Black, White, Asian is not nationality!! It's the race!!

The question is what nationality (which is the country from which you're from)

=)

c.


c has a very good point. the person's surrounding culture would have better bearing on if they'd tend to be a sneakerhead or not. so i say americans. =D

OBV!!!

The oriental community run the scene consumer wise.

Industry wise i would say its a lil more diverse.

Dont know too many Angolan or Brazilian sneaker heads.

Im also very loney! HA HA HA

To the thread starter, you asked which nationality has the most sneakerheads, someone else says black folks and you reply that hands down its asian folks. If you know the answer then why pose a question? Seems like in your head its asian/filipino.

I've been into shoes for as long as I can remeber, I'm from the bay, I live around a gang of asians. everywhere I go, theres asians. I went to yosemite, and the majority of tourists were asians. They are everywhere.

I'm from Guatemala/Hispanic, and all my cousins are into sneakers, we buy anything from forces to j's to adidas, whatever looks fresh to death.

Peace

phil knight and bill bowerman started nike which totally revolutionized the running shoe, and it started in oregon and i have a feeling if it wasnt for them it would be pretty hard for your ghetto to be rocking your jordans and af1s also you with your cons in the 70s whats up with that cons were like the only shoe to rock back in the day ever heard of chuck taylor his time was a lil bit b4 the 70s so if your sayin balck ppl started the fad of cons in the 70s there a lil late cuz it was started in like the 50s

what are you basing this on, the fact your black and want to take credit for your race starting something and you feel like everyone owes you something? when jordans dropped they were huge no doubt, but it wasnt just black kids buying them jordan was and still is the man, kids werent buyin his shoes on the fact that he was black they were buying them cuz he was fucking sick and the shoes were too. plus your sayin white kids listen to rap and start liking sneakers?? thats totally ignorant if that was the case there would just be af1s and jordans being sold, seriously tho whats your problem with white ppl like i said if it wasnt for white ppl you wouldnt have your af1s and jordans.

what problem with white people?

owes me somethin suck my dick you rascist fucker im not basing it on nothing it's just that it's a proven fuckin fact

yes it was mainly black people the only white people who would buy some jordans would either be for them to play basketball in or the people who emulate black folks culture to the fullest and state "i'm not a wigger"

why don't you explain why the fuck there's so many white sneakerheads that talk,act,dress just like us but don't claim to be hard? you don't have one

what do you mean white people? you 2 white persons not white people

if it wasn't for black people you wouldn't be who you are today

and i don't need to take credit for this shit we created math,chess,singing,civilzation,guitars,cars all types of shit
