sure, but even then. what's the allure of buying sneakers that were already creased by someone else ? is it simply because it's a deal ?

Your only legitimate point of cleaning them was refuted.. now it's about you not being able to "crease" them yourself? How intellectually dishonest can you get? Just say what you mean... you think people that buy used footwear are beneath you. Even though it's arrogant and snobby.. you would've at least earned some respect for being honest.

I mean I get your idea but most of the sneaker resell market is limited drops that were bought by collectors for the sole purpose of being resold for a profit that were never worn. Usually they exchange hands at least 3 times before someone actually wears them if ever. Pretty similar to something like trading cards for a card game. Most people aren't buying that Pokemon or Magic card to put in a deck and play the game with. They buy it to own it for the prestige of having it and to hold it as an asset.

Styles upon Styles DISCONTINUED. As long as the pair are relatively clean and sanitizer properly. You're fine...

I don't think it's popular. I don't know anyone who would consider buying a pair of used shoes

there are a lot of sites dedicated to it specifically. the resale sneaker market is expected to reach 30 billion by 2030

Do people actually wear them though? From what I have heard of people who are into sneakers, they don't wear them, never get them dirty, and mostly just collect them. So it could be a lot less gross than you think. I've only ever seen things like wellington boots in thrift stores, stuff you can wash out, and are designed to go through mud anyway. Never seen a sneaker, dress shoe or hiking boot at a thrift store.
