I feel u but honestly the best shit is found online. Unless you’re in NYC or you’re shopping at over prices boutique stores for exclusives, most stores are selling the mid items they know will go and keeping fire shit online.I never shop online for clothes. I need to see and feel and try the shit on. Same for other shit mostly, unless it's something that I absolutely cannot find in stores.
Footlocker was the go to for kicks but they even went to selling mid and now i cant even be bothered to go inside. Same with the house of hoops. Used to be the exclusive sneaks in the back and them joints all ass now.
Outlet shopping was cool for cheap diamond in rough items but now they got super weak also.
Took me a long time to adapt to the online shopping but its here and way better experience. Jeans are about the only thing i absolutely wont buy online tho.
