Being a sneaker collector can be stressful these days. It takes a lot of effort to cop a hyped-up pair of kicks, after all. And if you're lucky enough to get your hands on a Yeezy or a rare Jordan, you're then faced with the ultimate sneakerhead decision—do you stock 'em, or rock 'em? If it's the first one, do you then grab a second pair of the same shoes so you always have a fresh one in your archives? Decisions, man. Good thing musician and advanced Snapchat user John Mayer has a solution.

Today on Snapchat, Mayer (an under-the-radar sneakerhead in his own right) unveiled a plan for what he calls "the middle shoe." See, John thinks that with every new sneaker purchase—at least on limited-release kicks—customers should not only get a right and left shoe for wearing, but a third "middle shoe" simply for storing, displaying, and ultimately proving that you have owned this esteemed piece of footwear history. In turn, sneakerheads would be able to wear their pair of shoes while still having a single shoe for their personal archives.

Of course, there's things that don't quite make sense about this plan, considering the current sneaker business is so propped up on the idea of selling never-worn kicks anyway. With the middle shoe, would people re-sell all three shoes? Would there be a market for just middle shoes? Which foot would you wind up with two of? We don't think Nike is putting R&D on this stat, but it's just further proof that Mayer is becoming the most entertaining style-minded man on Snapchat.
