I am one of those sneakerheads. I have close to 140 pairs of sneakers. I started with my original pair of Air Jordans (ca. 1985) given to me by my brother when I was young. I now have all 23 editions, usually in both colours (white and dark). I have 3 pairs of the same shoe in some cases. For example, I have pairs of the Jordan XI, my favourite. I have all white, all black, 3 pairs of white/black (one original from 1995 and 2 from 2001), one pair of all grey, and white/NC blue in low cut. I also have his Trunners etc... I say my Jordans take up 60-70 pairs of shoes. All of these Jordans are real, not fake... but I do have some fake ones that I got while travelling/living in Asia. When I moved overseas, I left them at my parent's place in the original boxes.
In fact, I think the Jordans of the recent years look like crap, but I feel obliged to buy them.
I also have a whole ****load of shoes such as my Air Force I, Nike Mcenroes, Adidas clamshells, Nike Hardaways, CB4s, Pumas etc... but I never wear them. I usually just wear my Nike Shoxs, Asics or my Chucks.
I do not collect, but have alot of toys from my childhood in mint condition. My mother always told me to take care of your toys and keep the box in good condition and to put them away etc... Here is a list from what I can remember:
Transformers (Generation 1)
Optimus Prime
Megatron
Soundwave
Red Alert
Jazz
Shockwave
Blitzwing
Jetfire
Astrotrain
All the Constructicons
Sideswipe
Wheeljack
All of the Dinobots
Gi Joe
The Hovercraft
The Raven
F.A.N.G.
The Rattler
Other stuff such as action figures, but I loved Zartan and his Chameleon
He-Man
Both Castle Greyskull and Snake Mountain
Main characters
I was a spoiled kid. All these toys are still stored in my parent's attic.
