When I wear my regular AF1s which make me around 6’3.5 in shoes, as opposed to my platform shoes which make me 6’5, I get treated better. I’m 6’2 barefoot, morning, for context. But yeah, I think being 6’5 is way too much. I feel like a weird lanklet tower and just look down on everyone. I have a big frame and RBF too so seem unapproachable. Whereas when I just wear the AF1s I’m still pretty tall, but feel more balanced, less weird, etc. I think there’s diminishing returns tbh. I wouldn’t actually want to be above 6’3-6’4 max.

Most of you guys overestimate your height, by the way. I was measured at a doctors office at like 9am, like twice, with short hair. If you haven’t had this you may be an inch or two shorter than ya think. If you’re truly 6ft then you’re top 10-20% height even amongst zoomers.

But anyways I always say I’m 6’4 cause I’m a bit above 6’3 in every shoe no matter, even if they’re flat loafers lol, and everyone frauds an inch.

might be the first bad take from you, im 6'1.5 barefoot and 6'3 with air forces and i still feel short. 6'3 alone does not give you that feeling of heightmogging 95% of the people near you but being 6'5 would def make you feel that

I mean I just walked around a major European city today on holiday with lots of various age and ethnic groups, in just my AF1s and I saw maybe…2 guys out of 100s and 100s who I had to look up at. Keep in mind, your perceived height is lower than what it actually is, because your eyes sit a few inches below the top of your head.

it’s like being a jacked, athletic guy versus being a pro bodybuilder. The former achieves 90% of the mog already for all intents and purposes whereas the latter just makes you seem awkward

If you’re 6’3 you’re already scary enough height wise. At that point your effort is better spent on maximising other attributes like dimorphism, frame, muscle, attitude, posture and fighting ability.
