Fake it till you make it? Or other opinions

Thinking ab buying some fake s*** but wanna know diff viewpoints

Sry if threads alr made you can lock

No.

but what fake s*** are you thinking about?

I guarantee there’s respectable alternatives out there that don’t look like a straight rip off but still maintains the look your going for

Couldn't justify it personally. I do feel like half the pairs on stockx are reps at this point tho

wore fake stuff for so long whats the point in buying real stuff when you dont have the money y'know? why spend $200 on a shirt or $700 on shoes when you're not loaded?

go back to reddit pls

CRINE

havent seen u on here in a min

I love gats

Im cool wit em. S*** be so expensive for no reason lmfao

making your own duck ovens is cool. buying factory made knockoffs is MAD CORNY

Kills the whole purpose of investing into pieces that you expect to last forever imo

It’s cringe. I’d never pretend to be smarter than I am, drive a car I don’t drive, be more important than I am. The worst is when Reddit kids are hunting down clothing with rich history & meaning like archive Raf or Dior.

But at the same time, some don’t look at clothing like others. To them it’s a quicker way to look cool, boost self esteem or be accepted so I couldn’t care less however you only fooling yourself.

f*** that, buying fakes says nothing good about your character. if you have no means of getting the real thing, then that thing is not for you. at that point u either find an alternative or move on. buying fakes/replicas is not being honest with yourself.

Honestly do whatever makes you happy its just clothes that you will probably stop wearing in a year or two. I just feel that buying expensive things(why you get reps in the first place) wont really make you feel better for any significant amount of time.

With that said, I actually think the whole process of buying fakes is interesting. Contacting a foreign factory and interacting with an agent and getting pictures of product and comparing them to real items sounds like a fun experience in and of itself.

this

do whatever u want as long as u dont pretend and flex it like its real when u wear it. i wouldnt do it myself tho seems lame also keeps my motivation up to get my money up until i can afford something i really want to get

god damn nigga you thinking way too much sometimes these brands put out good designs and sometimes i want em just because i used to buy buy reps often doesnt mean I cant put together a fit without them that looks good

I don't have a problem with it. don't do it personally, but if you like how a piece looks and can't afford the real one, replicas are a fine option.

it feels just the same imo I buy only for the design not for the brand i feel a lil special every time i hop in my rep shoes and rep jacket its only a problem when someone ask to see it and it has flaws

Do what you gotta do fam they’re clothes but don’t hop on fashionreps and write a full 3 page simp essay about how you got called out at a party in front of your crush

You shameful scalawags.

just buy regular clothes instead of pretending you have/are something your not

Imagine wearing FAKES. Not replicas let’s not sugarcoat, tf is a replica. If it ain’t real it’s fake. If your not first you’re last

How do you not feel ashamed wearing fake items? Of course I wear nice things to be noticed but I’d rather die before I choose to wear some fugazi s***. It’s the quality that i spend money on. I work hard man , it hurts me to see you guys say this

Get ya money up not your funny up. If you can’t afford the real deal Holyfield, stack up or get something cheaper

Who cares

U could be wearing the fake or the real and I couldn’t give a s*** either way

Kinda depends on the shoe it’s probably even more embarassing to pay resell for something like travis Jordans, off white collabs etc
If you’re broke as s*** & there’s no way you could afford paying full price for a classic shoe you wanted for ages then god bless it’s a beautiful thing
