Fat Joe just became the latest victim of ageism, and it’s his Air Jordan 6 “Defining Moments” that committed the offense. You know how it goes – you keep some really shine Air Jordans on ice for years so that one day you can bust out a fresh pair when everyone else’s are beat. You unbox, lace them up, take a few steps. Everything looks good, then whoops. The San Andreas opens up across the midsole – they’re done before they even got warm on your feet.

These black and gold sixes released with the Air Jordan XI on January 28, 2006. You’re right, that was 9 years, 6 months, and 21 days ago. In some fairness to the blown-up kicks, no matter how well you store them, any sneaker pushing 10 years old is probably going to do this, especially those with EVA foam tooling. Let Fat Joe’s experience scare you straight on stocking kicks long-term – you’ve got about 4 or 5 years, and then you’ve either got to wear them or sell.
