It’s already happening. Older millennials are the only buyers. The 25 year olds aren’t buying a thing. Every year the industry’s unit sales drop and only price per unit climbs which is not sustainable. Swatch Group in particular is a mess.

I very badly want to agree with this but I have such a large amount of footwear that I run the risk of being a huge hypocrite.

A sneakerhead that owns 20 pairs of sneakers (and no other footwear) has less footwear than I do.

I've got 3 suits. They are all old and definitely not bespoke.

What runs up my footwear tally is boots. Winter boots, hunting boots, work boots, street boots... I'd say I have at least 15 pair of boots.

In the absence of footwear fashion changing to something other than sneakers, all this really means is that people are increasingly tapped out & struggling

The demand never changed; supply was artificially constrained by distribution manipulation and secondary markets exploiting this backend funnel for pure arbitrage

The same exact thing happens with markets for high end limited watches, Ferraris and 911s

Disagree that demand didn't change. Sneakers have been popular for over 100 years, nobody collected them until niggers began collecting Jordans in the mid 80s.

Also disagree that supply was "artificially constrained". When the phenomenon of collection arises, supply creates its own demand. And there's been an absolute fucking explosion of supply. Back in the day, Jordans were endgame. Now there are luxury brands selling thousand dollar sneakers, there are endless colorways, reproductions, counterfeits...

The only "artificiality" is people buying shit they don't need.
