u making it deeper than it is man

its actually extremely shallow. people buy fakes to fit in. doesnt get much more shallow than that.

Section is in desperate need of a @BVL classic. I'd settle for an interesting @goodkid_mAAdposter hypothetical at this point

bruh a nigga in here went on a tangent about a dude wearing fake kicks f***ing a sneaker plug's b**** this is very tame in comparison

replica threads might be the new tips threads

this isn't true 100% of the time

and telling niggas who cop real s*** that they do it for gratification is cope lmaoo

I collect kicks for the same reason I collect vinyl records and other s***.

I got the money to do so and it's fun lol

OMFG

I don't know why you're saying this to me like I give a f***. I already said just wear whatever you want, can afford, and what you're comfortable with.

I'm lookin at a person wearing reps and a person spending hundreds on some resale joints the exact same way...someone who cares way too much about some shoes/clothes. Only difference is I'll also look at the person dropping bread on resale s*** as someone wildly irresponsible with money.

This might be a long shot but him vs Mikey Rocks would be a classic

yeah it is. unless its some extremely oddball s*** like an air mag or something (although even those have alternatives), theres nothing distinguishing enough about any shoe to not be able to get away with rocking something similar enough.

if people bought fakes because they liked the design and didnt care what others think, they wouldn't be all up on reddit talking about QC and "are these 1:1?"

That's not the argument though. I feel like half of fashion heads judge more harshly on people who buy reps like once or twice versus the people who spends thousands of dollars on resale shoes

You wrong lol niggas complain about bots and resellers all the time

same s*** with saying "yall spend hundreds or even thousands on the same shoe" like aight so? i got it like that. if i didn't, i'd simply not own it. its not that hard.

A one off sentence is a tangent now lol

Not the resellers. the people who buy from resellers and go on their merry way because they can afford it

Cuz where did that even come from nigga that wasnt the subject at hand

clearly you don't care about style so this whole conversation doesnt pertain to you, d***eater

no it isn't if a nigga wanna spend $30 vs $300 on a pair of sneaks and they want that particular design then they making a smart decision idc what anyone says

nah thats just you feeling a type of way because you're a known fake wearer in the f&s section lmao

wtf that's just rude

why would I judge a nigga who can afford to spend his money and not be down bad instead of the reseller f***ing the game up.

This makes no sense.

If a nigga can spend mad bread and go about his day that means he got it like that.

I'm more upset about those who ruin it for others (resellers / bots)

I don't own fakes lol, so you can get your head out your ass

im not talking financial decisions. if you only got 30 bucks in your pocket, you got bigger s*** to worry about than a travis scott shoe, real or not. gon take your ass to a nike outlet, buy something within your means and wear it well. pick up a job application on your way out too.
