>The first pic is a monkey boot though I'm pretty sure IMO the workwear brands do that best (go on rakuten and lool up monkey boot).
Is it? I know >>11431171 are Doc's monkeys. I didn't know there were options beyond docs, the grafters originals, NaNa's & trickers. searching "monkey boot" on rakuten doesn't come up with anything though.

monkey's are cool, thinking of getting grafters for skating when my old skools wear out, see them around LA goths a bit but never knew they were used by skaters too.

ended up getting an england 1461 on grailed for $40

The humor is just one part of it, the majority of their pieces aren't humorous. Also, you don't give them enough credit, the DHL shirt is a very good, multilayered joke, definitely not reddit tier. >>11310945 And the reason I made that post about the shirt was because clearly not everyone gets the joke, even their fans.

And I'm still unconvinced you get it either if you think that Supreme's exploitation the hypebeast market is the same thing but sincere, Vetements' business model is just their business model, there's a lot more to the label than simply that. And even accepted your singular interepretation, your criticism of the label is just a criticism of satire itself versus the real thing satirized. Satire has political power, Vetements has done more to undermine the conceptions of hype and price than any hypebeast skewering.

Not necessarily. Vetements exaggerates models specific to the contemporary fashion industry. I just described it vaguely. "Controlled release" can describe both an auction house or brand protection by limiting releases to certain stores and consumers.

But yes, contemporary art has been consciously critiquing the financial and institutional influences defining its boundaries in a similar, and more sensitive way as Vetements, very prominently for the last decade. Fashion's always been a laggard.
